Ask a questionWhy Alan & Mandy chose Ruffiac
We bought La Vieille Ferme (The Old Farmhouse) at Gayon, in 2016 - we fell in love with it immediately, and moved here with our two cats. Once a working farm, it is now a tastefully renovated traditional stone longere, and we are offering holiday breaks in Morbihan, southern Brittany. With the nearest village of Ruffiac only 2 minutes drive away, and an enjoyable 25 minute stroll, you can pop into the baker for your morning croissants, the butcher for some of their delicious local sausages, the well-stocked supermarket for any other needs, visit the church, or the two welcoming bars and the restaurant. Close to the Nantes-Brest canal for cyclists and walkers, and only 10 minutes from picturesque medieval Malestroit and La Gacilly (home of the world famous photographic exhibition), yet still close to Josselin, Rochefort-en-Terre and the wonderful coastline of the Gulf of Morbihan. Whether you are looking for a romantic getaway, somewhere to discover new exciting adventures (on land, sea or air), somewhere to relax and get away from it all, a cultural and historical trip, or just a base for cycling or hiking, then look no further. We are centrally based, surrounded by many wonderful towns and cities, theme parks, inland lakes, forests and standing stones, and yet only 45 minutes from the sea. With its own microclimate, Morbihan regularly enjoys a warmer and drier climate than the rest of Brittany. There are also plenty of weekly markets around, not to mention the Vide Greniers - car boot sales for those after a bargain!
