Every bedroom is unique, tastefully furnished and thoughtfully equipped, each with its own private ensuite facilities.
Sumptuous breakfasts are served in the dining area or on the terrace.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing our home with you in this special part of France, an experience we hope you will wish to repeat, year after year.
Eat & relax
Pop down to the village for your lunch supplies, or ask us to pack up a picnic for you, for a day out or for an alfresco treat by the pool.
We are happy to recommend local eateries and equally happy to prepare your evening meal so that you can chill out at the end of the day and watch the sun set with a glass of wine or two.
Perfectly situated..
We are ideally located for exploring the local countryside by car, on foot or by bike.
Easily accessible by car are the numerous ‘Petites Cités de Caractère’ (small towns of character) and the rugged coastline of Brittany, the majestic Chateaux, gardens and vineyards of the Loire and the cosmopolitan city of Nantes, France’s 6th largest city.
About us
