Relaxing Breton Holiday Cottage with heated Swimming Pool in Kersulan, Morbihan - TAKING BOOKINGS FOR 2025 Reviews

What a lovely holiday we had at Walnut Gite. It is situated in a really pretty rural area with lots of stunning places to visit within easy reach.
Tina and Graham couldn’t have been more helpful, nothing is to much trouble for them and the attention to detail in the accommodation is truly amazing. From the welcome pack to the well stocked kitchen this gite has it all.
They have worked hard on the gardens and there are lots of places to just sit and relax and of course the heated pool is an added bonus.
We visited Josselin, Quimper, Auray and enjoyed a few hours at the beach at Larmor-Plage. The roads we found easy to travel on and there are so many lovely little places to stop along the way. The bakery in Le Sourn is a must for breakfast pastries and bread, its only 10 minutes away and they have the most delicious choux buns. We could easily of stayed another week, the whole place has a calm relaxing atmosphere, just to place to recharge batteries.
We cant wait to visit again.

We had a wonderful week staying at Walnut Tree. On arrival we were met by Tina and Graham, who welcomed us warmly and showed us around the gite. There was also a lovely, generous welcome pack.
The gite is spotlessly clean and Tina and Graham have included everything you could possibly need for a comfortable stay. There is ample room for six people with towels provided for everyone too. The beds are very comfortable with good quality bed linen.
The outside areas are all well looked after with several options for choosing where to sit and relax. The pool is in its own secure enclosure and, again, is spotlessly clean. It is cleaned on a daily basis. There is a selection of games to play indoors and there is also a covered barn area outside with its own selection of outdoor games.
Nothing is too much trouble for Tina and Graham. They provide any help and advice when needed and nothing is too much trouble for them. It is very obvious that a lot of effort and pride goes into making their guests feel welcome and comfortable.

Where to start!
When we arrived Tina and Graeme were there to meet us and were so welcoming. We instantly liked them and it set the tone for our stay. The gite is spotlessly clean and they seem to have thought of everything that you could possibly need to make your stay the most comfortable, including a lovely welcome pack to start off that includes bread, butter, cake and wine!!! I mean, what more could you want?? :)
The decor throughout is tasteful and beautifully done. As hosts, Graeme and Tina are always on hand if you need anything, and really, nothing is too much trouble but they are not at all intrusive. We had a very restful week, going out for days to lovely towns and villages such as Vannes and St Nicolas. Lamor Plage was around a 40 minute drive away but was worth it! There is a beautiful almost deserted beach, and there are activities here if you want to such as wind surfing, paddle boarding and cycling, all of which you can hire the equipment that you need. We combined these days out with restful days at the Gite and all it has to offer. The peace and tranquillity is just perfect. The heated pool area is spotless and is attended every day by Graeme and Tina, morning and evening to keep this pristine. We will certainly be booking again in the future and recommending to our friends and family. Do yourself a favour and book, you wont regret it!

Walnut tree gite is truly exquisite. The gite is fully equipped. The house is not only very comfortable, but also very attractively decorated. Tina and Greame are wonderful hosts. From the first reception you can feel how much love they have transformed this place into a wonderful holiday resort. Everything has been thought of: a cold bottle of white wine, a welcome pack for dogs, fresh flowers, freshly baked delicious cake and last but not least lovely soft linen. The garden with the private pool is a paradise. We ate outside every day at the large dining table, where we of course eagerly made use of the top gas BBQ. The kitchen is very complete with plenty of crockery and kitchen utensils. Both bathrooms are neatly clean. It is not necessary to bring toys or games, because that has also been thought of. Tina and Greame clean the pool daily. That happens unnoticed - early in the morning. The village is wonderfully quiet, with plenty of walking opportunities nearby. On the banks of the Blavet (a 10-minute drive at most) it is wonderful .. also for the dog. With an hour's drive you reach the beautiful Breton beaches. We have been in Walnut tree gite for a week, but it could have been longer. With a heavy heart we had to say goodbye to this lovely place and the cordial owners.: an absolute must!

What an amazing find Walnut Tree Gite is. This large, beautifully appointed, well equipped and immaculately kept property is situated in a small, peaceful village within 10 mins drive of Pontivy. The owners, Tina and Graeme (who live next door), have really gone the extra mile to make sure the gite is equipped with absolutely everything you would need in this home away from home. Their attention to detail and thoughtfulness is exceptional. From the moment you walk through the door you know that you are staying in a 5* property. There are some lovely touches too - a very generous welcome pack with home made cake, red & white wine, cheese, bread, butter, home made chutney and jam, milk, savoury nibbles and a beautiful vase of fresh flowers from the garden. The linens and towels are top quality, even the pool towels. The heated swimming pool is the perfect place to cool off, with sun loungers alongside. It’s set in the most beautiful well stocked, colourful gardens (yes, gardens plural). There are peaceful little nooks with seating just at the back of the property and plenty of lawned areas, plus a good sized table under a pergola.
There are so many beautiful places to visit, all within a 50 min/1 hour drive. We visited Auray, St Goustin, Carnac, Vannes and our favourites were Locronan, Rochefort en Terre and Josselin - all so pretty. Pontivy is close by (10 min drive) and there’s plenty of lovely shops if you want a bit of retail therapy, as well as 5 or 6 well stocked supermarkets for all of your provisions. I can’t recommend Walnut Tree Gite enough. I simply cannot fault anything about it and Tina and Graeme are lovely, lovely people, always on hand for whatever you need and a fount of knowledge on places to visit. We visited 25 June 2022 and we will certainly return to WTG. If you’re thinking of booking, just go ahead and do it before someone beats you to it. You’ll have a wonderful stay and won’t be disappointed.

We had a lovely time at Walnut Tree gite. The welcome pack was nice after a long drive from Belgium. Tina and Graeme are very good hosts. Help where necessary, without being intrusive. Our dog was very welcome. The children could not be beaten by the pool. In the meantime we enjoyed the relaxing garden. The gite is well equipped with everything you need. The area offers many nice excursions. Recommended!

Walnut tree gite is werkelijk voortreffelijk. De gite is van alle gemakken voorzien. Het huis is niet alleen erg comfortabel, maar ook heel sfeervol ingericht. Tina en Graeme zijn geweldige hosts. Vanaf de eerste ontvangst is voelbaar met hoeveel liefde zij deze plek tot een heerlijk vakantieoord hebben omgetoverd. Werkelijk aan alles is gedacht : een koud flesje witte wijn, een honden welkomstpakket, verse bloemen, vers gebakken overheerlijke cake en niet te vergeten heerlijk zacht linnen. De tuin met het prive zwembad is een paradijs. We hebben iedere dag heerlijk buiten gegeten aan de grote eettafel, waarbij we uiteraard gretig gebruik hebben gemaakt van de top gas-bbq. De keuken is zeer compleet met ruim voldoende servies en keukengerei. De beide badkamers zijn keurig schoon. Het is niet nodig om speelgoed of spelletjes mee te nemen, want ook daaraan is gedacht. Tina en Graeme maken het zwembad dagelijks schoon. Dat gebeurt ongemerkt - in alle vroegte. Het dorpje is heerlijk rustig, met voldoende wandelmogelijkheden in buurt. Aan de oever van de Blavet ( hooguit 10 minuten rijden) is het heerlijk .. ook voor de hond. Met een klein uur rijden bereik je de prachtige Bretonse stranden. We zijn een week in Walnut tree gite geweest, maar dat had best langer mogen zijn. Met pijn in het hart hebben we dit heerlijke plekje en de hartelijke eigenaren gedag moeten zeggen.: een absolute aanrader!

Such a beautiful Gite. We had a lovely holiday at Walnut Tree Gite. The gite was decorated beautifully and was lovely and clean. A gorgeous welcome pack greeted us complete with wine and cake. Tina and Graeme are lovely and nothing was too much trouble. There was lots to do in the surrounding areas but the girls were just happy playing in the pool. We loved our stay and will definitely be back. Don’t hesitate to book the Gite - I’m sure you will have a lovely time.

We had a wonderful week at Walnut Tree Gite. The house is full of character, extremely comfortable and stylishly furnished. We had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The spacious gardens were absolutely stunning, and there were various secluded places to sit, either in the shade or sun, and which are private and not overlooked. It has its own private heated swimming pool which was such a plus, as many of the gites i looked at had shared pools, so this was a fantastic find. Last but not least, Tina and Graeme were the perfect hosts - totally respected your privacy, but were always there if you wanted some information, or even just a chat. They also have the most adorable dog who got along perfectly with our pooch too. Couldn't recommend more highly!

My husband & I have just returned from a fantastic week’s holiday at Walnut Tree Gîte. The gîte is in a small & quiet but beautiful village in the Brittany countryside but close to explore other lovely surrounding towns & villages such as Pontivy & Saint Nicholas. Pontivy is ideal for any shopping you may need & Saint Nicholas for a wonderful stroll along the stunning riverside, followed by a stop for a refreshing glass of rose wine & to sample delicious traditional French crepes. And with only around 40 minute drives we visited the beautiful village of Josselin & also had a fabulous day out at the seaside. Brittany is picturesque & unspoilt, the villages are clean, pretty & so well kept. The gîte itself is beautifully decorated, extremely spacious, immaculately clean & exceptionally well equipped. The owners have taken a lot of care in thinking how to make your stay at Walnut Tree Gîte as comfortable as if you were at home. The added touches are outstanding & the welcome pack is fabulous - red & white wine & home-made cake, jam & chutney plus bread, butter, cheese, milk, tea, coffee & nibbles provided. The gardens around Walnut Tree Gîte are spacious, stunning with colourful shrubs & plants & superbly maintained. As is the added bonus of the daily maintained heated swimming pool & lovely seating & covered Al fresco dining area. And Tina & Graeme are the perfect hosts, really lovely people who live next door & are there if you need any help & advice of where to visit/shop etc. And finally a mention to the lovely Poppy dog who would come out to see us every morning when we were sitting at the front of the gîte in the sunshine having our morning coffee & a slice of Tina’s home-made coffee & walnut cake. Five star gîte, five star holiday - we’ll definitely be back!
