A traditional detached Breton house, of typical Audierne style, dating from the early 20th century and restored in 2001. The interior is bright and well equipped, and pleasantly furnished with a combination of traditional and contemporary items. Bedrooms, with sea view, are more simply appointed. Outdoors, the enclosed garden is well tended and dotted with roses and hydrangeas. Beyond the garden, uninterrupted fields lead down to the sea. The delightful owner, who speaks English, lives a few hundred metres away, and will welcome guests here. A homely property in a peaceful location close to sandy beaches, and with tennis, bicycle hire and horse riding within easy reach. Worthwhile visits include the rugged coastline around the Pointe du Raz, the Cap Sizun bird sanctuary and the pretty port of Audierne, known for its lobster fishing
