Our beautifully restored 16th century Breton Farmhouse complex is in a courtyard setting surrounded by lovely gardens including our large heated pool and children’s play barn. The farmhouse is situated in the rural heart of Brittany in the historic hamlet of Rosquelfen within very close proximity to the wonderful Lac De Guerledan considered one of the prettiest parts of Brittany, and easy driving distance from the beautiful Pink Granite Coast to the north, and the Gulf of Morbihan to the south. It is ideally placed as Gouarec is just a 3 minute drive (or 20 min walk) where you will find all the necessary amenities.
