In a quiet hamlet in the heart of Brittany, Elsa is a pretty, traditional stone-built cottage and is one of three charming traditional stone-built cottages set on 2.5 acres of land. Set within fabulous landscaped grounds including a shared heated outdoor swimming pool, boule court and games room, Elsa also has its own private garden. Elsa has been lovingly restored and features exposed stonework, a double height lounge area and a beautiful mezzanine bedroom. A perfect place to recharge your batteries. Elsa has an airy downstairs living and kitchen/dining area, with double height lounge area. There is a TV with UK (freeview) or French TV (TNT), and DVD player with a selection of DVDS, plus many books and games to enjoy. The well equipped kitchen includes a full size oven and hob, microwave, coffee maker, fridge freezer and all the utensils and crockery you will need for your holiday. Downstairs there is also a shower room with rain forest shower and a separate toilet. Upstairs, is the pretty mezzanine bedroom, with wardrobe and chest of drawers, plus an ensuite toilet. For small families, a cot or child’s bed can also be put in the bedroom (stair gate in place); a high chair is also available. Outside, as well as Elsa's private garden area with outside table and chairs to enjoy alfresco meals (barbeques available) and generally relaxing, you can also enjoy the fabulous landscaped gardens, shared heated pool, games room, badminton area and boule court. All bed linen and towels (not pool/beach towels) are included in the price, as is all fuel and power. Wifi is available in the cottage. Elsa is set in the heart of rural Brittany – a perfect place to enjoy the peace and tranquillity of the French countryside, but only 5 minutes by car from medieval Guémené, with supermarket, shops, bars and restaurants. Guemene is a typical breton town, famous as the capital of the Andouille Sausage (an acquired taste!). with the remains of the town walls and historic gate to the town open to visit. Pontivy is also close by, with its mix of mediaeval and Napoleonic architecture, it is a bustling town, set on the beautiful Blavet where you can walk, canoe, or kayak, or enjoy a meal at one of the many restaurants. The surrounding countryside is perfect for walking, cycling and exploring. We are within easy reach of numerous lakes (many offer swimming and other water sports) including lac du Guerledan in the centre of Brittany. The lovely South Brittany coast is an easy day trip and well worth exploring, with beautiful towns like Pont Aven or Quimper, prehistoric sites including the world famous Carnac standing stones, and of course stunning beaches, coves and islands with something to offer lovers of all types of beaches! Elsa is one of three cottages (Adele and Alice) sharing the pool, games room and communal grounds, which can be rented separately or with friends and families wishing to spend their holidays together, but with each enjoying their own separate house and private garden.
