About this property

Peaceful & secluded, set in beautiful countryside & only 30 mins from the sea

Le Haut Provost comprises two converted barns having all modern facilities, including broadband internet (never guaranteed) whilst still maintaining a rustic French country house feel. It sleeps 4 in the Main House and 2+2(mezzanine) in the Annexe. It is in a quiet country lane making it very safe for children and/or pets. There is a pretty, south-facing private garden, which has stunning uninterrupted views across open countryside.

The property is ideally situated to explore the area; it is 10 minutes from the medieval town of Rochefort and 15 minutes from the river port of La Roche Bernard. It is 30 minutes drive to several lovely sandy beaches, with plenty of rockpools, and a similar distance from the beautiful town of Vannes and the rest of the Golfe de Morbihan. Further afield, there is the walled town of Guerande, the trendy resort of La Baule and the busy cities of Nantes and Rennes.

THE MAIN HOUSE

Vaulted spacious sitting and dining room - Open fire, (logs supplied), exposed beams, sofa, old comfy chairs and plenty of books. There is a TV with soundbar and bluetooth connection for music, DVD and broadband Internet connection.
Enormous windows with far reaching views over the surrounding countryside open onto a clematis covered pergola with tiled garden table and seating. Barbecue available.
Family Bathroom: Spacious with double washbasins and walk-in shower.
Separate toilet
Kitchen: very well-equipped, dishwasher and washing machine. Lovely exposed pointed stone wall, enormous beams.
Stairs lead up to a mezzanine office space with desk, sofabed, books and board games and a quirky gallery passage to the second bedroom. The stairs in the house are not suitable for people with mobility issues or unsupervised small children.
Master Bedroom: king-size double bed, chest of drawers and seating area. Hanging space outside the room.
Second bedroom: twin beds that may be pushed together. Shelving for clothes.
Upstairs toilet and washbasin.

Annexe Cottage - A little guest house situated at the bottom of the garden with its own shower room. The corner is also a very comfortable double bed and upstairs on the mezzanine there are 2 single beds and shelving for clothes - note: the stairs are very steep. An extra charge of £100 is required to cover the extra linen and cleaning. This is the ideal teenage 'pad'. It is not available as a separate rental.

There is also a selection of garden furniture and some outside games. Linen and towels are supplied (not beach towels). There is a travel cot and a moveable zedbed, although the property is not suitable for toddlers due to the stairs.

Large log fire

New for 2024 - we shall be doing mainly Sunday - Sunday turnovers due to the huge traffic problems on the roads in France during the July and August period.

Rustic
It is a well-equipped cottage with all comforts in a beautiful and quiet area. It is a good area for walking and cycling but it’s also close to nice sights for example Vannes and Roche-Bernard. We realy enjoyed our stay.

Endroit paisible
Nous avons passé un bon séjour .IL y a vraiment tt ce qu il faut dans la maison rien n est oublié ce qui est agréable. Par contre nous n avons pu à aucun moment manger dehors ce qui est vraiment dommage, car le salon est fixé au sol abrité par une vigne envahie de frelons et de guêpe. Peut être faudrait il revoir pour un salon mobile. Se doucher etait également compliqué car il ny a pas de.pression du tout et si quelqu'un utilise l eau de son côté et bien l eau n arrive plus. En dehors de cela, parfait pour se reposer . Si vous voulez être au calme vous ne trouverez pas mieux.

Everything you need for a perfect vacation.
The house was perfect for our family. Kitchen was more than equipped with everything you need. We had a perfect holiday. I wish to Thank Jilly to use for a small extra to use the electricity to load my hybrid car. The deer came each day close to the house ;-) . The surroundings are beautiful for relaxing and walks through the forest. Big supermarkets are close by. You need to take the car for your breakfast but it is close by. And yes there are insects, but you are outdoors so ...... The insect lamp has done its job very well ;-). Jill, a outdoor table would be maybe a tip for you for next time. End conclusion. Money wise you get what you pay for. A nice house with all the comfort you need to have a nice holiday. I recommend this for those who love to be away from tourist areas .

Un endroit très calme
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cette maison qui a été l'occasion d'une belle rencontre avec Marcel le voisin reunionnais qui n'a eu de cesse de nous couvrir de fruits et légumes durant tout notre séjour. La maison est assez bien située mais nécessite de prendre la voiture pour aller vers toutes les villes et villages touristiques des alentours (minimum 15 minutes de routes). Caden est à quelques minutes et dispose de tous les commerces utiles pour le quotidien. La maison a du charme et malgré quelques petits dysfonctionnement nous n'avons pas soufferts de soucis majeur durant notre séjour. La cours est agréable, suffisamment clôturée et assez grande pour pouvoir jouer avec notre chien en toute sécurité. Je rejoint certains commentaires sur le rapport qualité prix qui me semble un peu élevé au regard des prestations de la maison mais ce n'est qu'un avis personnel 😉

Ruhig und privat
Rustikales Wohnen mit viel Ruhe und Privatsphäre. Genug Ausflugsziel im Umkreis von 100 km.
