It's the perfect location for a family holiday to relax and explore this beautiful and unspoilt corner of France. Three self catering holiday cottages in a 16th century Breton farmhouse courtyard setting surrounded by large gardens with a heated swimming pool near Lake Guerledan in Brittany.

 

At Les Hirondelles we offer you rural Brittany at its most enchanting: an idyllic retreat from the hurly burly of modern life where deer and wild boar roam the forests and fields and all sorts of birds nest in our gardens. We love it here in our rural idyll: the skies are clearer and bluer - theres no pollution; the grass and trees really are greener; and because there's no light pollution the night sky is very dark and you'll see so many stars that you'll think you could just reach up and pluck one to keep! Your holiday is important to you, and its important to us to make sure you have a great time. After all, we'd like to see you again some time!  We believe that happy children make happy parents so we aim to be family-friendly and have a range of baby equipment available at no extra cost, and also play equipment and toys for all ages!

Our beautifully restored 16th century Breton farmhouse complex is in a courtyard setting surrounded by lovely gardens including our large heated pool and childrens play area. We are situated in the rural heart of Brittany in the historic hamlet of Rosquelfen very close to the wonderful Lac de Guerledan in one of the prettiest parts of Brittany, and easy driving distance from the beautiful Pink Granite Coast to the north, and the Gulf of Morbihan to the south. But its just a 3 minute drive to collect those French breakfast essentials: freshly baked baguettes and croissants, or for the more energetic just a 15 minute walk to Gouarec!

 

Our holiday properties are very well equipped and our large heated swimming pool is thoughtfully situated to be easily accessible but it is fenced and gated for your childrens safety. Our pool is about 36 feet by 15 feet by 4 feet deep. It has wide shallow roman steps leading down into the main swimming area. These steps are ideal for toddlers and small children to paddle and play in the warm water. It is surrounded by a paved area which is itself surrounded by lawns screened by shrubs and trees for your privacy. There are plenty of sunloungers, chairs, tables and parasols set around the pool. There are also lots of inflatables to play with in the pool as well as a separate small inflatable paddling pool for babies. The pool will be open from 28 May to 3 September 2011.

  • use of heated pool
  • each property has its own enclosed garden with patio area, childrens swings, bbq, table, chairs and parasol
  • kitchen linen
  • bed linen

Owners Recommendations

' Horse Riding, Walking and Cycling'
"We're on the edge of moorland and forest called Les Landes de Liscuis with its ancient burial sites where you can go walking or horse riding, and then arrive at the Nantes-Brest Canal which is lovely for lazy cyclists as it's fairly flat!"

'Abbaye de Bon Repos Sunday Market'
"Really good Sunday market situated between the abbey and the Nantes-Brest Canal where you can buy the full range of local produce including vegetables, bread, honey, yoghurts etc, and there's often local musical entertainment as well."
