Perfect spot for a Brittany holiday
Fabulous house in a superb position on the edge of St Suliac, which is a gorgeous little stone village. The house is very well equipped (the kitchen has lobster shears!), the black leather sofa in the pic has been replaced with a lovely 3 seater blue and white striped squishy sofa. It's all scrupulously clean. The terrace is a sun trap (umbrella provided) and as it was cool when we were there I can say that the heating also works well. You don't have an unimpeded view of the river, but you have a very good view of it. A bird got trapped in the chimney and M Durrand couldn't have been more responsive in sorting it all our. Clos de Bronds is a little 1980s development of stone and stucco cottages on the edge of the village, a path leads down to the quai and the bars/restaurants. WARNING: do not follow GPS or Google Maps to find the place. It will take you through the village. It will try to make you drive the wrong way along one way streets and up pedestrianised lanes. You do not want to drive through the village if you can avoid and NEVER in high summer (think Padstow in August). Aim for Mt Garrot and drive past it towards the village through 2 or 3 chicanes (one will say no entry except for residents but you are a temporary resident!) and then Clos de Bronds is the first road on your left. It's about a 4 minute walk from the house into the village which has a very well stocked shop, boulangerie, bar, and several restaurants. TBH once you arrive you hardly need to leave!
