Property
Simple but comfortable apartments renovated by British expats Sandy and Barrie. Located in a rural area of northern Brittany, the apartments contain kitchens and laundry facilities. Our children enjoyed running around on the grounds (and watching the cows grazing in the pastures); there is a small above-ground pool and a trampoline for kids. Reasonable prices.

Location
Located inland in northern Brittany, just outside the town of Mellé. Comfortable base for day trips around northern and central Brittany : Fougères, Rennes, Cancale, Mont Saint Michel, Dinan, St. Malo.

Sleeps
Four apartments, sleeping 2, 4, 6 and 8.

Highlights
Exploring the beautiful region – watching the tides from dramatic Mont Saint Michel, eating oysters in Cancale, visiting the aquarium (and the walled town) at St Malo and exploring the beautiful castle town of Fougères.

Good to know
Brittany’s weather is – well – unpredictable. Pack accordingly. Better yet, stop by the nearby town of St. James and pick up the beautiful sweaters for which they are famous. In the summertime, weekly rental Saturday to Saturday. Sheets and towels are included.
