Well appointed gite with sea views in scenic location
We received a warm welcome from the Corlay family and thank them for the lovely welcoming gift of cold Breton Cidre, freshly made crepes and salted caramel spread!
The gite is beautifully appointed, very new, modern decor and very clean. The kitchen diner is large with sliding doors overlooking the garden and sea beyond, with modern units, ceramic hub, extractor, oven, large fridge with freezer compartment, dishwasher & even a Tassimo coffee machine. There are lots of new pans, utensils - everything you could possibly need, including tea towels, kitchen roll and cleaning materials. The lounge is modern & minimalist, with sofa, storage unit, Satellite TV (French only), a PS 2 & controllers (no games though, or books). The bedroom is modern and the bed very comfortable with ample storage for clothes, There is also a much welcomed utility room with a double sink, washing machine and even a tumble dryer (a first for us in a holiday gite). The sun room is very warm and overlooks the garden and is ideal for drying clothes if it's inclement weather. We thoroughly enjoyed staying here, it's quiet, and private and only a short stroll to the beach. There are some fabulous beaches and walks in this area and well worth exploring. We stayed towards the end of the season, so was quiet, but would imagine it could be busy during high season.
We wish Mr & Mrs Corlay every success with their new gite business, they have a lovely place and should do well.
As a foot note we would add that it would be nice to have a file with useful information within, nearest shops, doctors,, chemist, etc, and maybe appliance instruction booklets, do's and don't for looking after your property, etc. The introduction of a visitors book would be great, as everyone likes to share their experiences of places visited, restaurant recommendations etc and makes great reading for yourselves and future visitors! Our only niggle was that there wasn't really any comfortable seating for the evenings as your only sofa isn't too comfortable, also, there's no music facility, no radio/CD player or access to music through the TV. Thankfully we brought our own Alexa so could play music.
