La Fontaine Rouillee is a lovely spot for a holiday, in a friendly rural area that makes it just so easy to relax and forget all the pressures of everyday life. However the central Breton town of Loudeac is just 10 minutes drive with direct access to the major routes crossing the region making any destination easily accessible for guests wishing to explore other parts of Brittany. Plessala the local village is in an extremely scenic location and has a weekly market, several individual shops and a trout lake surrounded by a small park where local festivals are celebrated with fireworks. Walking and cycling routes circle the commune, which the Tour de France recently passed through. Its situation on the River Lie also means Plessala is a focal point for Anglers visiting the region; while just 3km down-river kayaks and all terrain bikes can be hired and in nearby Loudeac Forest accompanied pony treks are arranged. .

Ideal touring base with all home comforts

Fred & Chris Australia
Review Submitted: September 25, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We had two weeks at La Belle Maison in May 2009 as it is a fairly central point from which to explore beautiful Brittany. The house is set in a tranquil rural location in the middle of corn and wheat fields and has a garden in the front which catches the sun with a barbecue to enjoy in the evening. The outlook over the neighbouring fields from kitchen and bedroom was lovely. The house is very homely and seems to have one of everything that you think you might need. It was warm with very comfortable lounge furniture, everything worked and we always looked forward to returning there after a long day out sightseeing.

Heureux Vacances!

Jo & Bryan Plymouth
Review Submitted: September 20, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Booking a holiday ‘on line’ is a gamble but the offer of flexible start days in high season is the beginning of the high standard of the La Fontaine Rouilee experience.
La Petite Maison is really a home from home, the accommodation and furnishings are far superior to that of a typical holiday rental.
The peace and tranquillity of La Fontaine Rouilee is unbelievable – yes all you can hear is the birdsong.
The boulangerie in Plessa supplies excellent daily pain (closed Mondays)
We found the best supermarket to be Leclerc in Loudeac- take the road through the forest and stop for a walk along the well marked paths. For a real retail experience Hyper U in Yffiniac is the place to visit.
A visit to the traditional bakery Tuesday and Friday is a must; the bread and brioche is amazing. The baker and his cat are very friendly and enjoy a chat.
An evening meal at La Bisquine in the central square Loudeac is to be recommended.
Your days can be as varied as you wish – a short drive takes you to most of what Brittany can offer the visitor be it coast, town or countryside. A walk or cycle in the beautiful local area gives you the rare opportunity to enjoy nature at its best. Or just
relax with a book and a glass of wine enjoying the quiet calm of La Petit Masion garden.
Well done Penny and Ray for providing the perfect holiday
We hope to return soon
