Welcome to Hibou, our cosy cottage for 5 people, with a seaside feel.
Hibou sits in the middle of our courtyard, just steps away from the swimming pool, and the children’s play areas. It has a private patio are with stone built bbq.
It was once the vegetable store and became the residence of the local barn owl for a number of years. When restoration began in 1997 he was persuaded to relocate, but has not ventured very far and even has the gîte named after him – he can often be heard in the evenings and sometimes seen swooping low across the courtyard or perched on the barn roof.
The door from the farmhouse courtyard opens onto a galley kitchen with gas cooker, washer/dryer, dishwasher, Tassimo coffee machine, fridge-freezer and microwave and well equipped kitchen cupboards. There is cleaning spray, washing liquid, dishwasher tablets, and a bundle of freshly pressed kitchen linens.
We also leave tea, coffee, milk sugar, and fresh bread for our guests. And you’ll find a refreshing bottle of Breton cider waiting for you in the fridge too!
The shower room and cloakroom with hand basin and wc are to the right of the entrance door.
The open plan living area has a feature wood burner, comfortable sofa and armchairs a TV with freesat, and dining table. French doors lead from the salon onto the patio with two lounger chairs, and a stone-built barbecue and wooden furniture for dinners alfresco.
The salon has a sofa and two armchairs, a wood burning stove with stone chimney, and a TV and DVD player. We have wooden cabin-style stairs that lead from the salon up to the two bedrooms looking out onto the pool, sandpit and swings – one with a sumptuous double bed and an additional single bed and one with two single beds, and a pull out wooden tray full of toys and books.
