Notes to the rental rates

• Half the rent in advance plus a £100 returnable deposit secures the booking. Rent includes all electricity and beds made up for arrival. There will be a 5% surcharge on bookings of one week only.

Accommodation and Facilities for the house in Finistere, Brittany, France

The House

Ar Sparfel was built in 1977 for our family and, with its patio and lawns, is the last house in the village of Kerabars and nearest to the sea. It is situated on a rise in the ground and commands the most amazing view of the coast, sea and islands. The spectacular sunsets from the Patio and stunning - see photo. The area is beautifully mild in the winter and the house has double glazing on all windows, a fireplace for burning driftwood and central heating in every room. There are 4 twin-bedded rooms and 1 single, living room with dining area and French doors leading to the patio. A heated drying cupboard, fully equipped kitchen and separate cloakroom with basin and loo. Two bathrooms, one with bath and one with shower, both with loos. Each bedroom is supplied with bedlinen and duvet.

The Countryside

From Ar Sparfel you look out at a spectacular view of the Atlantic, the Tas de Pois (islands) and the Point de Dinan. A short walk, also driveable, from the house down a track takes you to our beach which is ideal for surfing, collecting mussels at low tide with many rock pools for children to play. There are wonderful cliff walks in either direction. The peninsular has a temperate climate. In the mild spring, gorse and broom flare golden and there are carpets of primroses and wild flowers. From June to September it can at times get incredibly warm. In the autumn the cliffs are covered with purple heather. The villagers say snow is unknown and frost almost as rare. The little Port of Morgat is 10 minutes drive away and Crozon, the market town, the same distance.

Things to do

Eating at the little seafood restaurants is a great experience. You will be faced by Plateau des Fruits de Mer, Coquillages, Crabes and Crevettes and home seems far away! To work off the excesses, Golf is 40 minutes away at Golf de Brest Iroise with 18 spectacular holes. Diving Clubs, Windsurfing and Sailing abound at Morgat and Camaret, a well known port to English sailors 20 minutes away. Tennis with all weather courts and two indoor courts and bicycle hire at Morgat. Shopping is terrific at Crozon and Morgat. There is a fish and veg market most mornings in Crozon, 3 supermarkets and everything one could ever want that is French! Quimper, 40 minutes away, is a fascinating cathedral down and the home of the famous Quimper Pottery Factory.
