Les Châtaigniers

The Chestnut Loft, (Les Châtaigniers) is our holiday apartment for 6 people on our old cider farm in Brittany.

It was originally the farm’s grain store. It sits above the farmhouse kitchen and dining room.

The Loft was restored between 1992 and 1994. It has a lovely large open plan living and dining area with polished wooden floorboards throughout and low windows overlooking the rolling fields that lead down to the woodland.

There’s a picnic basket with crockery and a blanket ready and waiting for you to take a picnic out to the woods, the fairy glade, or even out to beach. There’s also a large wooden chest full of toys and books.

The kitchen has a Gas fuel range cooker, microwave, Tassimo coffee machine, fridge-freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer as well as well stocked kitchen cupboards with all the equipment you might need for making your holiday French cuisine.

We provide a bundle of freshly pressed kitchen linens, cleaning spray, washing liquid, a box of 5 dishwasher tablets, a bin and compost bag (plus a spare!) to get you started.

There is olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sea salt and Herbes de Provence to add to your tasty dishes.  

We also leave tea, coffee, milk, sugar, so you can have a nice cup of tea or coffee whilst you unpack.

You’ll even find a refreshing bottle of Breton cider waiting for you in the fridge too!

The salon area has a large comfortable sofa and chairs, a cosy electric wood effect stove and a TV with French digital channels (TNT) and DVD player.

 

The shower room has a large tiled shower, with wc and hand basin and has low windows overlooking the garden.

The Chestnut Loft accommodates 6 people in a master double bedroom, a second double bedroom and a bunk bed room with bunk beds (Ideally suited to our younger guests!) made to look like the front of an old Parisien building.

 

All the bedrooms have windows overlooking the courtyard.  

 

A private garden with wooden furniture and stone-built barbecue offers a secluded spot to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings and is bordered by chestnut trees and a walnut tree on one side and open farmland on another.

100% refund up to 30 days before arrival

50% refund up to 14 days before arrival

 

Check-in: 4 pm

You are very welcome to arrive any time from 4pm. We live and work on site so if you need a late arrival that’s no problem. Let us know what time you expect to arrive and we will put the lights on for you.

 

We are sorry that we can not offer early check-ins. We spend the whole day deep cleaning and preparing your gite, the swimming pool and our grounds so that everything is perfect for your arrival (we want Le Rhun to look its best!).

 

Check-out: 10 am

Guests are requested to vacate their gite by 10.00am on the day of departure, to give us time to clean the gîte before our next guests arrive.

 

Before you check out, please would you

~ strip the linen from the beds and leave it all in the bathroom

~ empty the bins and compost bins

~ make sure you have washed up and put things back where you found them.

It really helps us especially if all the toys and books are put back!

~ If you have used the wood burning stove or bbq has been used, please clean out the ashes and the bbq rack for the next guests. (There is a metal ash bucket and spade in the wood store for this purpose. Ashes can be put in our large black compost bin.)

 

An end of holiday cleaning service is available for guests who have an early departure and would like to leave the breakfast dishes and last minute cleaning to us.

If you have not already selected this when you made the booking, please book this by Thursday of the week of your stay. This is to be paid in cash before your departure. Cleaning fee: Ecurie €40, Hibou €40, Etable €50, Chestnut Loft €50, Farmhouse €60.

 

Children/infants: allowed (and encouraged – we are very family friendly)

 

Pets: not allowed – we love animals but our gardens are not enclosed so we cannot guarantee the comfort and safety of all our guests if we allow pets.

 

Parties and events: not allowed – we are very happy to host your party or event if you book all of Le Rhun, but if you book one gite we don’t allow late night parties to ensure the comfort of all our guests.

 

Smoking inside: not allowed

All our gîtes, the pool area and the children’s play areas are designated no smoking areas. We respectfully request smokers to dispose of cigarette butts thoughtfully and not to put them in gîte kitchen bins. If you need us to supply you with an exterior ashtray, please ask.
