Benniel is a 1-bedroomed cottage, sleeping 2, in a rural setting, 1.5km from Plomodiern (South Finistère), 20km NE of Douarnenez (Michelin map: 512). VFB is delighted to have featured this property since 1984. Saturday arrival.
A charming example of a traditional Breton cottage, this is one of three holiday properties (others not rented through VFB), each independent of the other, set in pretty, undulating countryside close to the lovely bay of Douarnenez with its fine, sandy beaches. Situated some 200m from the owners’ home, this semi-detached cottage has its own private garden (approx. 15m x 20m) enclosed on three sides which is approached by stone steps from the terrace (3mx15m) that overlooks a tiny chapel – used once a year, usually the last Sunday of June, for pilgrimages – and the wooded hillside beyond. The interior offers comfortable accommodation of a good standard, with character added by good use of wood throughout in traditional rustic-style. A lovely little cottage in a peaceful rural setting, close to some of the most spectacular scenery in Brittany; the Crozon peninsular, Locronan, and Bénodet. Note: Please note that the central light fittings in the kitchen and living room will be low for six footers.
Accommodation: Ground floor: kitchen, living/dining room (with open fireplace) with divan (sleeps 1), separate wc. First floor: 1 double-bedded room, bathroom with wc.
