Amazing place. Much bigger than I anticipated. Perfect week away. Just a shame it is not a bit closer to home so we can go more often
On a rainy day it's worth just getting in the car and go for a drive. We discovered so many little cute villages...

Great holiday cottage in beautiful setting.
We loved our stay in "Le Puits" cottage near the village of Plumaudan. The cottage was very comfortable & clean. The leisure facilities catering for the whole family were superb with a very well equipped games room and a fantastic all weather swimming pool. The cottage is set in countryside but it's not isolated as not very far from the village. There is a lake with use of a little boat which the children particularly enjoyed. We definitely recommend this holiday cottage and hope to return soon.

What a lovely property and such gracious, welcoming hosts!
We absolutely loved our time at Gites La Vallee! We were so impressed with all the thoughtful details. What first struck us was the beauty and serenity of the property. It exceeded our expectations. We had been looking hard for a rental that would happily accommodate ages 9-86 and we were not disappointed! The cottage itself is cozy, charming and tasteful, with lovely views and many amenities that really helped to make the trip easier: a very well-appointed kitchen with a dishwasher, washing machine, toaster, electric tea kettle, ample dish and cookware and great counter space to cook. There is seating in the kitchen if preferred or weather dictates, but the outside area is so lovely and we mostly ate and sat out there. We also used the outdoor grill many evenings. The kitchen came stocked with tea, coffee, sugar. milk, dish soap, hand soap, cleaners, etc, as well as a wonderful Welcome Basket, giving us a few staples before we had to dash to the market. Saturday the markets are open, but Sundays, many are closed altogether or only open half day! The house itself was very clean and though there are two comfy couches and a very nice TV and great wifi, we often sat outside in the evenings. The outdoor areas are so lovely and well thought out. The large pool with its telescoping cover was amazing. Not only did it provide shelter from wind or rain, but also from sunburn. The water was clean and a great temperature and it was like swimming in a greenhouse! And there are pool toys and floats! There is a game room with a pool table and table football, bocce, croquet and bicycles to ride, as well as board games to play in the living room cabinet. There are three adorable ducks who come to say hi and a little lake for a stroll, as well as a play yard with a swing set and a trampoline. We ventured to the beach often and explored the coast and various villages easily. There was another nice family in the other cottage but we only ever noticed each other in passing or when at the pool together, such as is the well thought out layout. Our hosts were readily available to help with directions, suggestions or to answer any questions we might have. This place is a gem!

We are a family of five from Sweden who really enjoyed our week at Gites de la Vallee! The gites are beautiful, so is the garden, buildings and surroundings. The pool area is perfect for us, and so is the location, close to beautiful cities and historic sites. The closest town, Dinan, was a really nice surprise with it´s medevial city-center, the river and lots of restaurants. Our hosts were very kind and we got the best service. We are impressed that there are so much to do at the estate; dart, table-tennis, games, bicykles to borrow, books, movies, toys for the pool, everything one could wish for! We would love to come again and will absolutely recommend Gites de la Vallee!

Wunderbar - Anwesen und vermieter. Ein ganz zauberhaftes Anwesen mit ebenso zauberhaften Vermietern. Unglaubliche Wohnung auf einem wirklich tollen Grundstück mit einem tollen Pool. Super ausgestattet mit liebe zum Detail. Jo und Nick sind wirklich sehr liebe Menschen - schön, dass wir uns kennen lernen durften.

What a great place to stay. On site facilities are so good not just for children either. The Gites are located less than 10 minutes from Dinan. 30 minutes from Dinard. Both great places to spend a day or two. Want a rest day? Stay on site, the facilities are great for adults and children. We had a fantastic week. My eldest son enjoys fishing. He had a great three days fishing the lake. Thanks Nick, it made his holiday. 35 Carp to 20lb, average about 12lb. My sons daughter really enjoyed the pool and children’s play area. Grandad (me) was exhausted keeping her amused. The ladies enjoyed sunbathing and relaxing. Nick & Jo were great hosts making a lot of effort to make sure there guests enjoy their stay.

Our family had a brilliant stay here for a week in june - very comfortable, very well equipped and nicely styled gite, in a beautiful setting with lovely grounds. The pool and games room are fantastic, a great range of games and toys for the pool and play area, and kept us entertained all week, and having bikes on site to borrow was a plus. The owners could not be more friendly, really thoughtful and helpful and knowledgeable about the local area and things to do. The location is an easy drive from the ferry and easy to find, well placed for lots of interesting day trips. All three generations of the family had a wonderful time here, it surpassed our expectations and we would very happily stay here again.

Lovely welcome from friendly hosts. The property met our needs. Facilities fantastic. The property was full of character and beautifully decorated with a well equipped kitchen. The facilities were super especially the pool, which could be covered on those not so hot days and always at a temperature comfortable to swim. The children loved the games room and the opportunity to use the bikes provided. The lake was an added bonus that we hadn't expected. The property was well situated and within easy driving distance of lovely beaches and places of interest. Overall a fantastic place to stay with charm and character which has been well thought out to cater for a families needs and owned by lovely people.

Such a lovely lovely holiday
Tips for other travellers
Dinan is a must. Beautiful little streets with amazing shops and bistros

We had a lovely stay here and would definitely come back again. The two gites are arranged so that each has privacy, and we never heard the other guests. The games room is well equipped and so is the pool- and the pool has a great retractable cover that allows for swimming every day. The surrounding chateau and lake are really beautiful. But the main thing that struck me was that the cottage was equipped with everything you could need- the kitchen, BBQ, etc- a lot of thought has gone into making sure you have everything you need and the welcome basket was a bonus!! Many thanks and we will definitely recommend.
Tips for other travellers: Beaches at St Briac, St Jacut, and all along the headland. Visits to Dinan and St Malo. The lovely village of St Sulliac.

Such a beautiful holiday, this was our second visit and the Gites were just as spotlessly clean and homely. We were greeted by very kind and helpful hosts and a basket full of treats for our stay. The swimming pool is fantastic, plus all the facilities, games, it's fun for the whole family - including a little rowing boat on the pretty lake. An outstanding holiday!
Tips for other travellers: Dinan town centre and the port are two ideal places to eat, so many beautiful buildings and cobbled streets make great pictures for the photo album. Alligator Bay and then Mont St Michel is a fabulous day out. Then St Malo and The Grande Aquarium to get up close to the Sharks- a real adventure. So much to see and do!
