Bretagne Garden Estate
We stayed at Marsha and Jules’ gite for a week. We were in the area to do some cycling and sight seeing with friends. The gite with its beautiful shared gardens, great layout and for us a fab location to ride in and out of was perfect. Marsha and Jules are warm and generous hosts. The gite was generous enough to have our friends over for dinner and to watch the Olympics and to not feel crowded or cramped. We would highly recommend staying here.

Zur Ruhe kommen in der stürmischen Bretagne
Angelsächsische Gastgeber im nordwestlichsten Zipfel Frankreichs heißen Rheinländische Gäste wärmstens willkommen - So stellen wir uns Europa vor! Bereits eine Woche vor Reiseantritt begann unser Urlaub, ausgelöst durch eine umfängliche Nachricht der Gastgeber, Jules und Marsha. Die Nachricht enthielt neben der Wegbeschreibung und ersten Einkauftipps auch bereits etliche Aktivitätsempfehlungen, welche unsere Vorfreude zusätzlich gesteigert hat. Die Wohnung ist sehr geräumig und liebevoll bis ins Detail eingerichtet und bietet Platz für 4 Personen - Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt und wir kommen gerne wieder. Besten Dank für die wunderbare Zeit! Liebe Grüße, Guido und Claudia mit Hund Nala

Sehr hübscher, ursprünglicher Ort zum Ankommen in der Bretagne
Sehr schönes, geräumiges Ferienhaus, in einem toll gestalteten Garten, dekoriert mit liebevollen Details. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt und die Umgebung mit vielen Ausflügen erkundet - dabei sehr viele großartige Strände und Plätze entdeckt. Danke an Marscha und Christoph für den perfekten Einsteig in unseren Bretagne-Urlaub!

Gesamtobjekt
Das Gesamtobjekt befindet sich noch nicht in einem final geplanten Ausbauzustand. Einer letzte Wohnung wird noch erst gebaut, ein Pool scheint geplant zu sein. Die Gartenanlage ist sehr hübsch angelegt und kann von allen Gästen vollumfänglich genutzt werden. Es stehen zudem Möglichkeiten für kindgerechte Freizeitgestaltung sowie eigens bereit gestellte Spiele indoor und outdoor zur Verfügung.

Séjour des plus agréables
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour chez Marsha et Jules. Les propriétaires sont adorables et attentionnés. les lieux sont vastes et enchanteurs et on trouve de tout dans les environs. L’emplacement est parfait pour rayonner dans le Finistère. Le logement est décoré avec goût et très bien équipé. Il demeure frais en été (en bas), mais il est cependant relativement sombre et pourrait bénéficier de petites réparations ou retouches par endroits. La chambre principale est confortable, la seconde, bien. L’endroit est parfait pour un séjour en famille avec enfants. Nous recommendons!

Lovely flat
Arriving at the place was the beginning of a nice two weeks' holiday. Extremely friendly and relaxed hosts who welcomed us warmly. Beautiful interior with plenty of little charming details exactly like in the pictures. We had our own little garden, but could also use the huge common garden with a pond and nice Japanese corners not to forget a place to play pétanque and table tennis (which the children enjoyed). A farm and a chapel just around the corner. We always needed the car to get to places (the beach, village, super market, forest) though, but it's a beautiful spot in the world, so we didn't really mind. The house is also a good starting point to get to exciting places in Brittany. The coast line is amazing, gorgeous beaches, interesting towns and villages, an exciting Art museum (Pont Aven) or a flea market in Concarneau. The house is an ideal place to come back to, to cook a meal or enjoy the fire place. To put it in a few simple words: We felt at home. Pity, the holiday is over.

Comfortable and relaxing stay in a wonderful location
We were staying there for bit more than 2 weeks and felt very welcomed from the beginning in this extraordinary house, which we loved so much. For the whole family (2 adults, 3 kids) it was always a very comfortable and relaxing stay, having more than enough space inside and outside. In principle we never missed anything , and if so, Marsha and Jules were available, attentive, engaged and helpful at all time. This was one of our favorite holidays, thanks to this beautiful region and its pleasant people, and highly hospitable and lovely hosts, who made our stay to a feel like at home experience. Thanks again for this valuable time we have gained there.

We had a lovely stay at Ty Gorre Ker
My wife and two kids and I had a lovely stay at Ty Gorre Ker. Jules and Marsha are extraordinary hosts and kept going out of their way to make our stay pleasant. Our kids aged 6 and 10 loved the play barn (table tennis, darts, boxing and archery), the dog, the birds and the playground. We adored all the artistic touches. We fell in love with the unspoilt beaches and landscapes, all within driving distance. Not to mention the creperies, the local food market. The area is brimming with natural beauty. We strongly recommend this property.

Geweldig vakantie adres
Deze woning is precies wat ze beloven, what you see is what you get. Prachtig gerenoveerd door de eigenaren, met oude details en met smaak ingericht. De tuin is ook een prima plek om te verblijven, verschillende hoekjes zorgen ervoor dat je altijd een plekje in de zon kunt vinden. Echt een aanrader dus!
