Charming Holiday Cottage Near Pontrieux, Côtes d'Armor, Brittany Reviews

We enjoyed our stay at the cottage, there was so much space inside and out.
The kids loved it as they had a double room each and their own bathroom and TV upstairs. There was WiFi too, though a bit slow. In the garage there was an old pool table which the kids used a lot.
We had originally intended to camp (really glad we didn't), so having Sky Tv and all the cooking & washing facilities was a bonus for us.
The cottage is charming and characterful, though the finishes, fittings and furniture are not 5 star they are more than adequate. The layout is rambling and you would easily fit a party of 6 in here.
The garden is lovely and wild with mown pathways through it and there is a BBQ and outdoor dining area. It is a nice place to sit outside and read. There are no neighbours so it is very private & peaceful, you are in your own little world.
The nearest small town is just over 10 mins away by car. Pontrieux sits astride the river and has a small square on each side. It's a nice little place, but don't expect anything lively in this area if you want nightlife or a resort buzz then avoid Brittany.
All the towns and villages around are lovely and well presented.
We had visited Brittany before, on the south side, the northern coast near the cottage is much different, not very touristy all. Very pretty & unusual coast, some great beaches about 25 mins away, we were surprised by how quiet everywhere was for August.
Not tons to do, but very relaxing. I'd recommend it.
