Cuckoo Cottage and Pic Cottage are recently renovated stone built cottages situated in a tiny quaint hamlet known as Fendrement which is approximately 35 minutes drive from the South West coast of Brittany, 1.5 hours drive from St.Malo and approximately 2.5 hours drive from Caen.

The Cottages are surrounded by a landscape of a bygone era, pine woods, watermeadows, ancient watermills and a gently flowing river. Please be aware that the pool is only availabe in June, July, August and September when owners can maintain it. It is not open the rest of the year. The owners live on site near by and have three dogs who are friendly but any one with dog allergies or dog phobia should not book this accommodation.

Cuckoo cottage :

Downstairs : Lounge/dining room/fully equipped kitchen - with a wood burning stove at one end (characteristically rustic in autumn and winter months), cooker, fridge/freezer, washing machine and fully equipped kitchen. There is a sofa and other chairs on which to relax. The cottage looks particularly atmospheric at night with candles dotted all over the room! For those chillier nights in front of the woodburner there are board games, cards, a selection of paperbacks, VCR with a small English video library and a DVD player. Also, a CD stereo and radio. A TV with british programes. Bathroom - off the main room which is a converted cider/wine cellar and is very rustic in appearance. It includes a Victoria and Albert double bath/shower, toilet and wash basin. Again, it is very rustic and atmospheric when lit by candlelight.

Upstairs : Double bedroom - with a double bed in the minstrel's gallery. This room is very charming, having exposed original beams and pine floorboards. (Imagine lying in bed with the pattern of flames from the woodburner below dancing across the beamed ceilings!).

Adjoining Room - Ground Level, with door to kitchen/lounge
