This traditional 17th-century Breton cottage is located in a quiet hamlet in the
depths of the countryside near Pontivy. This picturesque, secluded home is ideal for
anyone who wishes to get away from it all. Here you will find fresh air and idyllic
countryside in abundance. The nearest shops and services are in a village 15 minutes'
drive away, and in the larger town of Pontivy, about 30 minutes away. This area is about
30-40 minutes from the beaches of the South Brittany coast near Lorient.
The
nearest villages and towns are pretty and very typically Breton, with excellent local shops,
bakeries, and cafes. Pontivy, on the Nantes-Brest Canal, is known for its medieval town
center (where you will find a weekly market), its massive 15th-century chateau, and more
"recent" Napoleonic architecture.
This rural cottage features beamed ceilings
and includes three bedrooms (two double, one single), two bathrooms, a large living and
dining room (complete with an old-fashioned organ), and a fully equipped kitchen. The
home has been tastefully converted and includes oil-fired hotware boiler, partial central
heating, and a separate woodburning fire for cool evenings. The furnishings are simple,
comfortable, and traditional in style. Additional features: television, washing machine,
dishwasher.
A similar three-bedroom cottage is available in the same area,
about 20 minutes from Pontivy. Information available on request.
Very
good value!
