Traditional house for 2 people in the countryside near Rennes and Brocéliande

In the heart of the “Purple Country,” nestled between the Morbihan coast and Mont Saint-Michel and near the Brocéliande Forest, our holiday rental is located in a wing of our historic farmhouse dating back to 1870, set on one hectare of land.
The house, a traditional local farmhouse built of stone and earth, stays cool even during the hottest days. The cottage is spacious, bright, and fully equipped with every comfort. The living room offers a direct view of the garden. If you’re seeking rest, you’ll find the peace and quiet you need to recharge—a tranquility punctuated by birdsong!
This single-story holiday rental in the heart of the countryside is located in the middle of a hamlet consisting of three homes, including a farm. Plenty of space both indoors and out. A 40 m² living room and a large 25 m² bedroom with tall windows, featuring a closet, wardrobe, and chest of drawers. A 160x200 bed with a luxury-quality mattress and a 130x190 pull-out sofa bed are available in the living room for additional sleeping space. The kitchen opens onto the living room. A spacious bathroom with two sinks, a shower, a bathtub, a vanity, and a washing machine. Separate toilet. All rooms receive natural light. Central heating. Private Wi-Fi. Private access, with no overlooking neighbors or proximity to our home. Direct view of the field with sheep from the living room. Two charming chickens that occasionally roam freely... One hectare of land, much of which is available for use by the cottage.
A calm, rural atmosphere with a mild, temperate climate—neither too cold nor too hot. Noise, odour, and visual pollution are kept to a minimum, ensuring excellent relaxation and a good night’s sleep. Nature and greenery abound, with all the life typical of the countryside: cows, birds, sheep, chickens, frogs, hedgehogs, common cranes, does, owls, salamanders, and the distant crowing of a cockerel...... On clear nights, the sky is unobstructed and the Milky Way is often clearly visible. Deck chairs are provided for this purpose!
