This lovely self catering holiday cottage, or vacation rental accommodation is tucked away in the heart of the rolling Breton countryside, between Pontivy and Josselin, historic canalside towns with beautiful chateaux. The accommodation is very centrally positioned, so is ideal if you want somewhere to stay while you are house hunting.  ancient towns of Vannes and Lorient, the popular holiday resorts of Carnac Plage and Quiberon, Northern Brittany coastal towns, Roscoff and St Malo and the impressive Mont St Michel are all within easy reach. 

 

The spacious and comfortable holiday home, or ferme de campagne is suitable for all party sizes, from couples to a large family of nine.  It is a perfect base for walking or cycling enthusiasts planning a break in the Spring or Autumn and no need to bring your own bike, as four adult sized mountain bikes are ready and waiting for you at the holiday cottage!  Gite Les Blancs would also be perfect for couples taking a romantic break away from the children, or people celebrating a special occasion, or anniversary.  For more info and photos of the self catering cottage see Accommodation.

Gite Les Blancs Holiday Cottage is an easy drive from the French ports and airports, so it is ideal for taking either an out of season break, or a longer summer holiday.  The popular short Calais crossing and Eurotunnel is a leisurely 6 hours drive, so you can do it in a day, or take an overnight stop on the way.  For people living in the south east of England, the Newhaven to Dieppe crossing is very convenient.  If you choose Speedferries, or LD Lines to Le Havre, you will find the fares amazingly cheap out of high season.  Maybe you would you prefer to relax on the longer ferry crossings with Brittany Ferries to Cherbourg, Caen, Roscoff, or St Malo and arrive completely refreshed, ready for your holiday.  Roscoff and St Malo are less than 2 hours away!  For more info on French ports and airports see Getting There.

 

The holiday house accommodation is well situated for taking days out exploring Brittany, or simply spending time relaxing in the peaceful countryside and can be recommended for Spring and Autumn Breaks.  These are both excellent times for seeing nature at its very best.  Enjoy trees bursting with spectacular seasonal colours, bright sunny days and beautiful night skies.  Listen to the cuckoos announcing the arrival of Spring, or the owls calling to each other during their late night hunts.  Watch the bats skimming and diving around the cottage at dusk, or listen to the bird’s tuneful chorus at the start of the day.  See the flocks of swallows in Autumn, as they prepare for their long journey back to Africa, or gaze high into the trees to see the red squirrels busily collecting their supplies of nuts for the winter. For more info on Spring and Autumn breaks see Rates & Availability.

 

You are welcome to take advantage of the abundant Autumn harvest at Les Blancs and pick the ripe fruit from our mature fruit trees. We have the most fantastic pears in our orchard, as well as crisp juicy apples and succulent peaches and plums.  In October the huge chestnut trees will shower you with more chestnuts than you could possibly eat.  All you have to do is roast and enjoy them whilst relaxing beside a blazing log fire in the comfortable holiday accommodation.

Un paradis tres tranquil.

Come and enjoy the freedom at Holiday Gite Les Blancs.
