Lovingly renovated Breton cottage, surrounded by farmland and set in the valley of the River Aulne/Nantes-Brest Canal, but only 3 miles from the picturesque town of Châteauneuf-du-Faou where you will find all the usual range of shops, bakeries, banks, restaurants and 2 large supermarkets.

The cottage is only 100 metres from the river and has access to the broad winding towpath, which is ideal for walking and cycling. The river also provides opportunities for fishing and generally messing about on the water.

The glorious sandy beaches of the west coast of Finistère are less than 30 miles away and the north and south coasts within an hour's drive. The cottage is ideally placed to explore the beautiful scenery and picturesque cities and villages of Finistère and adjoining departments.

The accommodation is comfortably furnished throughout. It has an open plan ground floor, with a dining area and fully equipped kitchen at one end and a living area with a traditional Breton fireplace with a wood burning stove, and a tv for showing videos and dvds. There is a double bedroom on the ground floor, with a bathroom and wc and a further double bedroom, twin bedroom and shower room with wc on the first floor: all have views along the river valley. Outside there is a garden with barbecue, and parking for 2 cars.
