Owners Recommendations

'Fishing'
"The cottage is in an idyllic situation for fishing and there is plenty of fishing gear available at the cottage for anyone to use. As well as the Blavet, there are numerous rivers and streams in the area offering a variety of fishing."

'Kayaking'
"We have 2 very stable kayaks at the cottage which guests are very welcome to use and are lots of fun. Each kayak is suitable for one adult or one adult and a child. Kayaking on the River Blavet has proved a very popular activity, as the very fit can paddle down to Hennebont or up to Pontivy. "

'Mountain Biking'
"There are 4 mountain bikes at the cottage available for anyone to use, and lots of wonderful cycle rides in the area. There is a cycle path all the way along the river from Pontivy to Hennebont. We are about half way along the path so it's fairly easy to reach either of these destinations as the path has an excellent surface and is flat. The scenery all the way along the river is beautiful."

'Pedalo'
"There is a 2-seater pedalo on the river at the cottage for guests to use. This is very good fun for those wanting a leisurely peddle along the river (rather than at the river's edge)."

'Walking and Wildlife Watching'
"The cottage is ideally situated for country and river walks, bird-watching - kingfishers freqently spotted and otter-watching. "
