La Petite Metairie is a friendly family run establishment comprising of several gîtes, all very picturesque converted farmhouse/farm buildings, situated in beautiful countryside. There is a heated outdoor pool and extensive kids' play area shared between them, with climbing frame, swings, play houses, etc, plus ping pong table. They can also provide things like high chairs and bed guards which is very handy.
It is about half an hours' drive from a large number of beaches and nice coastal towns and villages. Auray, and Ile de Moins via foot passenger ferry from Port Blanc (€5 per adult) were particular highlights for us. We hired bikes and a bike trailer on Ile de Moins, which was the best way to explore, as there are hardly any cars on that island so it feels very safe and relaxed riding there. Another place worth visiting is Loqmariaquer which is a nice little town to lunch on the coast before seeing some of the Neolithic stone constructions/arrangements that are within an easy walk of the town (including a Neolithic burial structure that you can go inside of, next to the picturesque Loqmariaquer beach). There was so much to do both in the area and at the gîte that we are already planning a return trip next year!
Note: we stayed in Orchard Cottage (two bedroom cottage).
