Description

La Belle Maison is approached through its own private south-west facing enclosed garden which benefits from the sun during the day and on into summer evenings. There is a built-in chimney barbecue, hardwood table with chairs and parasol in a sheltered outdoor dining space, plus two reclining sun loungers. Wonderful sunsets over the nearby forest can be enjoyed, and night skies clear of light pollution - ideal for star gazing. As well as borders of flowering shrubs, the garden has cherry, apple, hazelnut and greengage trees and 2 herb planters - all of which our guests are welcome to harvest.

A traditional Breton glazed porch protects the front door which opens into a central hallway which has the original terracotta floor tiles; there are coat-hooks, a full length mirror and a stocked bookcase.
The dual aspect kitchen, is a lovely bright and airy room overlooking the garden. As well as the working area of the kitchen, which includes a built-in oven and hob, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and washing machine, there is a dining table with four chairs, plus a dresser for crockery and a corner unit to store cleaning equipment out of sight.
In the separate sitting room, which has chestnut parquet flooring with carpet square to make it cosy, there are 2 comfortable 2 seater sofas, a wood burner with a top-box that is ideal for simmering casseroles, warming plates or mulling wine in cooler months. The television receives UK freesat channels and there is also a DVD player.
Further down the hall, opposite each other there are two equal sized bedrooms; on the left is a west facing double bedroom; the large window has far reaching views to the distance forest. The twin bedroom opposite benefits from the morning sun through its east facing window. All the beds are two metres long and both rooms have plenty of storage space, an easy chair and bedside lamps

We offer a year round under occupancy discount when 2 guests choose to use just one of the bedrooms to reflect our reduced laundry & utility costs - this is available throughout the year, including during the peak summer season.

We are completely flexible about change-over days in all seasons, for longer stays we offer 10% discount off 2nd & 3rd weeks booked, and are happy to accept 4, 5 & 6 night breaks out of peak summer season. In 2024 our gite is available for rent from early February until early November.

Our home in Brittany is in the same hamlet as La Belle Maison meaning we are on-hand to assist and answer questions if required but we take care not intrude on our guests.
