About this property

Dating back to the 15th Century and steeped in history, the manoir, gites, lake and woodland originally belonged to the overlooking chateau.
Today at Gites La Vallée we offer two well equipped, 3 bedroom, self catering holiday cottages. Outside you will find a 10 x 5 meter heated, outdoor swimming pool (open mid-may to end September) with retractable abri cover, children's play area, fishing lake and around seven acres of grounds - including garden and woodland to explore.
The gites have been renovated from the original granite barns. Each gite has it's own particular character and charm, with many of the original oak beams and stonework features retained. Both have all modern conveniences, including dishwasher and washing machine, Nespresso coffee machine, flat screen TV with French TV and UK Freesat, DVD, Bluetooth audio system, free Wi-Fi, charcoal BBQ and individual outdoor dining areas.
Downstairs both gites have a kitchen area with dining table and separate lounge area with settees. Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms, one with double bed and two with two single beds. Each bedroom has a wardrobe. There is a full bathroom with bath and overhead shower, wash basin and toilet. There is a further separate toilet.
The indoor games room features a pool table, table football and dart board. There is a ping pong table undercover outside the games room.

A lovely stay

A wonderful gite. Kids loved all the amenities on site and a great location for exploring the local area. Hosts were very helpful when we needed and very nice. Would definitely head back when we can. 👍

Wonderful stay

We really enjoyed our stay at La Vallée! Spacious, a beautiful garden (so many butterflies 😍) and a lovely swimming pool where the girls spent hours 😊. We can really recommend it to families.

An oasis of calm (even with small kids!)

We are just back from the most wonderful week spent at Gites la Vallee. Our gite was lovely. Perfectly clean and well-equipped. The pool was a real treat for the boys and the setting is absolutely beautiful. Jo and Nick live on site and are there to answer any queries you might have but at the same time you have all the privacy you need. Having only quite recently discovered Brittany I think we would be hard pushed to find anywhere as nice to stay as this this gem. Thank you Jo and Nick!

Better than we expected

Nick and Jo were very friendly and nice. Apartment was good and functional for our needs. Pool area was perfect, children liked it very much. Property itself was well kept, quiet and beautiful. Children and adults alike think ducks were very funny. Location was very countryside, but we were expecting that.

LOVELY.

Quite, private, relaxed. A lovely gite in a 15th Century manor building, with thick walls so it's beautifully cool inside. comfortably equipped with lovely grounds. Great facilities (swimming pool with sliding cover, games room and play area as well as a beautiful lake). Easy reach of Dinan (beautiful medieval town and port). Nick and Jo (owners) very friendly and helpful with local info, and also provided a hamper on arrival (lovely local supper of cheese, rilettes and craquelins was very welcome after our long/delayed journey). Would be happy to recommend to anybody.

About the host

Hosted by Jo Blackman

We brought this property, Gites La Vallee, in 2016, already a successful gite business and fishing lake for over 10 years. I am a qualified Body Control Pilates teacher, having run my own classes successfully in Kent, UK for several years - so we will be looking to add this to our repertoire some time in the future.

Why they chose this property

We knew that this was an ideal holiday location, having holidayed in France and this area many times ourselves. Medieval Dinan, good food, uncrowded roads, friendly locals, picturesque towns and villages, beautiful coastline and beaches - who could ask for anything more.
We are on the outskirts of a small village, Plumaudan, with its own boulangerie, bar tabac, mini market and pharmacy. Close to medieval Dinan with its many shops, restaurants and leisure activities. Not forgetting the beautiful port area.
Airport at Rennes and, our nearest port, the picturesque St Malo, both around 30 minutes away. It is a great place for walking, cycling and fishing and just a short drive away there are many unspoilt sandy beaches and rocky coves to suit everyone.

What makes this property unique

Retractable abri cover over the heated swimming pool allows for swimming in less than sunny conditions from mid-May to end September.
Fishing lake on site.
