Spacious Farmhouse in Beuzec Cap Sizun, Near Quimper, Brittany - Peninsula Location

The farmhouse at Leilzac’h is in a small hamlet near the village of Beuzec Cap Sizun. Cap Sizun is a peninsula in southern Finistère - ‘the end of the world’. We are surrounded by coast, flooded with sea light, the nearest beach is 3 km away. 4 km away is the pretty fishing port and market town of Audierne and medieval Pont Croix is also close.

Audierne and Pont Croix have many cafes, restaurants and galleries and in the summer there are numerous fetes and fest noz. There are good local shops and markets so you can enjoy cooking together on holiday. The house can accommodate an extended group of friends or family, and sleeps 10-11 people.

The house is set down in a sheltered hollow, amongst farmland with a few neighbouring houses. There are private gardens available to the west and north side, and a warm southerly courtyard in front with a terrace. Different levels of terrain offer several outdoor spaces with their own character. 

Ground floor

There are two 3-seater sofas, an armchair and some ottomans for relaxing in this sitting room. The snug can become an extra bedroom, especially suitable for someone needing ground floor accommodation.
