Our charming cottage can be discovered in the heart of the breton countryside in a small hamlet just a short distance from the village of Melrand. Although we offer a peaceful holiday, we are just 14 kms from the busy medieval towns of Baud and Pontivy and the beautiful beaches of the Gulf of Morbihan are only 35 minutes away. You will have a choice of visiting the long sandy stretches of Carnac beach or the small coves of Locmariaquer and Le Men Du or even going further afield to one of the many islands. For those of you who prefer a change from the beach, the nearby lac du Guerledan and the Blavet river offer beautiful walks and cycling along the towpaths. Nearby, for the more active among you, there is kayaking, horseriding and golf.

Wonderfully relaxing stay

Pied Piper Vancouver BC Canada
Review Submitted: January 20, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2008
We were fortunate to stay in this wonderful property in Sept. 2008 (where does time go?). It was exceptionally clean , beautifully maintained,tastefully decorated and very well equipped. We cooked most of our dinners there and the kichen had everything we needed. The cottage is very spacious and handled 2 couples easily.We had dinner at Le Cheval Blanc in Baud one nite and La Tonneliere in Melrand another nite. Both great but especially liked the local ambience of La Tonneliere.We did day trips around the countryside to Quimper,Vannes,Pontivy,Auray, Carnac,Josselin and a bike trip along the Blavet river. Would recommend this place to friends,just know it is in the country and you must drive for groceries,wine etc!!!
Owner's Response: A very pleasing and well balance review of our property. We are so pleased that not just the property but the location gives enjoyment to our guests. We very much appreciate guests feedback.

La Metairie -A Breton Haven

Hebron Scotland
Review Submitted: April 1, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
On a first trip to Brittany we were fortunate to find La Meterairie. It proved to be ideal for a peaceful and relaxing holiday.
Central for trips to towns or coast or walking along the towpaths of the canals this little cottage is well located for a variety of activities. It is just as described on the web site,clean,comfortable and well equipped.Melrand a nearby village has a boulangerie and a restaurant.
A car is essential and I would recommend taking/hiring bikes to make the best of the surrounding countryside and quiet country roads and towpaths.
The cottage has a private garden perfect for lazy days when all you want to do is read and enjoy the sound of silence.
