Property Details

General Description
Manoir de Guervihan is a typical Breton manor house dating from the 17th century standing in its own parkland grounds of 4 acres. Opposite the manor are the former stables which have been tastefully converted into 3 holiday cottages offering a peaceful and relaxing retreat from the congestion and stress of everyday life.Each cottage has its own furnished terrace with access to the grounds and its many facilities including swimming pool, full size boule court, barbeque and grassed areas for leisure and relaxation

Living Areas
The interiors of the cottages retain the character of the old stables with beamed ceilings, some exposed stonework and comfortable furnishings to a high standard.

Accommodation for each cottage comprises; open plan lounge - kitchen - dining area, with separate shower room - WC - sink, all on the ground floor. Upstairs each cottage has 1 double bedroom and 1 twin bedded room.

Sleeping space for an additional child can be provided with a z bed in the twin bedded room. Cots, high chairs and stair gates are available.

Location
The nearest village of Kergrist with its bars and bakery serving fresh baguettes daily is 3km away. The medieval town of Pontivy (formerly Napoleonville and the strategic centre of Napoleon Bonaparte) with cobbled streets and famous Chateau, markets, restaurants and shopping is 10 minutes by car.

Guervihan is 15 minutes by car to Lac de Guerledan, the largest man made lake in France offering a wide choice of water sports, swimming, fishing, walking, horse riding, picnic areas and many attractions for visitors including a sand beach for the children.
The Nantes Brest canal and river Blavet are a short distance from the cottages; again offering fishing, canoeing, riverside walks and cycle rides. For the more serious horse rider there are stables just 2km away.

The south coast is an hour by car with the medieval walled town of Vannes its cobbled streets, markets, shops and outdoor restaurants appealing to locals and visitors. The south coast beaches are a must, with the Gulf de Morbihan offering attractive coastal inlets and islands to discover.

For the golfer, the south coast offers a range of challenging links and parkland courses, not overcrowded. Fifteen minutes from the cottages is a well maintained and challenging 9 hole course having tight, sloping fairways and spectacular views of the countryside. Friendly staff and a welcoming bar complete the round.

The traditional Breton fare is of crepes washed down with cider. Crepes (thin pancakes) come in a variety of flavours; savoury for main course and sweet for dessert. All the local towns have at least one creperie where you can enjoy a very low cost meal where children are always made welcome.

For those who like to see how the local tipple is made there is the opportunity to visit the cider farms located towards Finistere, over an hour away by car.

Brittany has over 600 miles of beautiful granite coastline and is renowned for fresh fish, particularly Cancale oysters. The local towns have excellent restaurants and bars with good fish and wine menus.

The Breton culture is colourful with summer festivals and local costumes for the visitor to admire. Seek out the souvenirs made by local craftsmen; wooden clogs, beeswax candles and hand thrown pottery traditionally decorated with blue and yellow designs of simple flowers, birds and people. StMalo is possibly your port of arrival.

Rather than merely `pass through` why not take a day at the beginning or end of your holiday to discover the treasures of the old walled city (Intra Muros) and its stories of pirates and famous discoverers.

As a gourmet delight Intra Muros is not to be missed; the narrow streets abound with lively restaurants offering a variety of fare.
