This popular 2 bedroomed (1 double, 1 twin) country home offers a peaceful and comfortable haven for you to return to after exploring the beautiful area surrounding La Roche Bernard and is perfectly placed for visiting the sandy beaches, fantastic coves and many inland attractions of South Brittany.
Nestling in rural France, between the market towns of Redon and La Roche Bernard, the well-equipped gite of les Chenes is on the edge of the historic village of Sainte Anne and is part of a traditional Breton farmhouse, with 2 foot thick granite stone walls under a slate roof.

Merci d'avoir pris le temps d'évaluer votre séjour, très apprécié. Nous sommes heureux que vous ayez apprécié votre séjour à la gite de lesChênes et espérons que nous vous reverrons un jour, toujours les bienvenus
Dieses schöne Steinhaus liegt in dem kleinen Ort St. Anne. Ein Parkplatz ist direkt am Haus, Fahrräder können im ehem. kleinen Stall untergestellt werden. Melaney ist sehr freundlich und man kann sich jederzeit bei Fragen an sie wenden.Die Ausstattung des Hauses ist sehr gut, es funktioniert alles, Geschirr, Töpfe. Microwelle, Kaffeemaschine, Wasserkocher, Spülmaschine, Waschmaschine usw. ist alles vorhanden. Im vorderen Bereich ist ein Garten, hier kann man schön frühstücken oder auch grillen.Ein guter Bäcker und Metzger ist in Nivillac, Supermärkte und andere Lebensmittelläden gibt es in La Roche de Bernard.Uns hat es sehr gut gefallen.
Séjour trop court mais nous reviendrons, très calme,de belles balades à faire et surtout un accueil chaleureux qui vous met à l'aise tout de suite.voila.
Des hôtes accueillants et très disponibles.
Un très bon séjour au calme dans l’adorable cottage.
Attention à l’escalier très raide (enfants, personnes âgées, etc).
Un gîte très agréable et parfaitement équipé; literie très confortable, notamment. Environnement calme et accueil très chaleureux. Seul petit bémol/détail: les escaliers sont un peu raides. Un très agréable séjour!
Mel est faite pour le contact humain avec son grand sourire et ses gestes amicaux. Elle est soucieuse de notre bien être accompagnée de son mari. La maison à elle seule vous invite à rester. Seul problème… notre séjour était trop court. ♥️ Merci également Mel pour ce fou rire que j’ai eu dans la voiture en repensant à vous à quatre pattes pour tenir votre chien afin qu’il ne parte pas avec nous.
Un accueil parfait et un gîte idéal pour une escapade aux portes de la Bretagne
Ces quelques jours passés chez Melaney nous ont permis de nous ressourcer et de profiter des environs avec l’assurance de pourvoir nous réchauffer auprès du poêle après une bonne randonnée! A tester sans hésiter
La maison d'une propreté irréprochable est charmante dans un endroit très calme. La propriétaire est très gentille.

Why they chose this property
We were so fortunate this property came up for sale just as we narrowed our search to this lovely area. We'd admired the house in passing, but it was not on the market, then ~ the ' A VENDRE' board went up.... right place, right time!
What makes this property unique
Country living but close to so many amenities/locations/attractions. Only an hour to Brittany's capital Rennes, also Vannes & Nantes in under an hour, less than an hours flight to UK, two and a half hours on the train to be in Paris. A world renowned golf club 10 minutes away, more restaurants than are good for you! 20 minutes drive to stunning coast ......
