Gallic Country Charm

My family and I spent a thoroughly delightful week in early spring at this charming country cottage. Situated in the picturesque Blavet valley, this enchanting little cottage is simply and comfortably furnished and well-stocked with kitchen equipment. The owners thoughtfully provided a cot, baby bath and high chair for our toddler.
The surrounding gardens are stunning and provide a perfect setting for dining al fresco. My energetic 2 year old found enough delights to keep him occupied all day. From Quistinic there is easy access to great beaches and historic attractions in the area and we were never at a loss for things to do and see. However, the tranquility and beauty of the cottage and grounds proved very inviting and we spent half our holiday simply exploring the gardens, sun-bathing and reading.
Our hosts were very warm and welcoming, and made our stay very special indeed. They provided tons of information on events and activities in the surrounding towns, places to eat and visit and very helpful guidance on where to shop and what to buy for our lactose-intolerant toddler. Food and supplies were within easy reach with two good supermarkets nearby.
I would unreservedly recommend this property to anyone looking for a calm and restful holiday away from the stresses of noisy modern life. It is a perfect place for children with loads to explore and nice days out. We came back thoroughly refreshed and reinvigorated, and look forward to returning soon.
