Les Golfeurs , gîte de caractère , avec piscine , bord de mer à vingt minutes

Enjoyable house, large garden and pool.

We booked and paid upfront for 7 nights. After the first night, we already left, because we were not satisfied at all with this accommodation. The ‘cottages’ are right next to each other with terraces that are separated by a wooden (removable) wooden screen, but if you are in your sleeping room, it feels as if the neighbours are sitting right under your window. We had to sleep with the window closed. The owner later blamed us for not discussing this first with the neighbours, with which it was made our problem. At 4am, the dog started barking right behind our front door. At 4.30 am, I decided to get out of bed and went outside to let the dog stop barking. The house itself was not in the best possible condition (smelly and moldy and there were stains on the walls), but that was not the main reason we left. We asked for some refund (and told them it was up to them to decide what amount). They refused. That one night has cost us the price for 7 nights.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week-long stay at Les Cottages. The shared pool is idyllic and the secluded garden lovely. We made good use of the bicycles and ping-pong table. The Gite seems to be deep in the countryside, but is only a moments drive from Lamballe and it's many shops. 20 minutes drive to the beautiful sandy beach at Van Andre.
