Pontivy hotels

Martine was so welcoming and helpful and her home is really beautiful. The upstairs rooms were all very private and comfortable and the well-equipped kitchen and garden were available whenever we needed to use them. It was lovely to sit outside in the sun and play badminton in the pretty garden. We felt very much at home and really enjoyed exploring the pretty town of Pontivy.

Arlette made us very welcome with some very helpful emails before we arrived, and waiting for us in the gite were some delightful biscuits, cake, fruit tart, fresh juice, and fresh flowers - a nice touch. The gite itself is gorgeous! It has clearly been converted from its original use to a gite to a very high standard, and with great style. The bed is the most comfortable (and biggest) that we have ever found in France, and the modern bathroom is very well appointed. The kitchen, though small, is extremely well equipped, so was perfect for our stay. Outside is a tidy garden with sun loungers, and table and chairs. The village itself is really pretty, and there are two excellent restaurants and a tapas bar literally on the doorstep. Au Fil des Saisons serves pretty stunning food (80 euros for two including a lovely bottle of wine), and The Chalet crêperie serves excellent galettes and crêpes at a very reasonable price (38 Euros for two including wine) but you should reserve a table for both as they are popular. There are supermarkets, bakeries etc, either 3 or 6 miles away, and Pontivy and Josselin are pretty close for days out. We feel very lucky to have found this gem, and hope to return before too long.
