Beautiful garden, great host. Unfortunately for us we found it a little too rural as we were unable to walk to the shops.

Brittany Roadtrip
An absolute gem of a find!! This Gite has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. We explored the area visiting the local Zoo (Bourbanais) located in a Chateaux's grounds, exceptional. Also Cancale is beautiful and the Oysters, WOW - Dozen for less than £10 - what can you say. Also visited Rennes which is oldy worldy and well worth the visit, less than 1 hour drive. Limited number of restaurants in the area, but this is rural France after all. Dol de Bretagne, about 4 miles along the main road is lovely with some nice bistros. For some days we just lay in the gardens and soaked up the sun - lovely. Laurence was very informative and made us very welcome. Thank you

Fantastic Gite
Really well appointed facilities, lovely host. Very well located for quick access to some great towns.... St Malo and Dinard to name a few. Garden is massive, so plenty of outside space. Would highly recommend.

A lovely property in a beautiful place
The house was very attractive, clean and comfortable. There was more than enough for us to fill our time in the neighbourhood, but it was also a pleasure to sit and relax in the big, beautiful garden. The owners were very friendly and welcoming, and we felt able to go to them if we needed anything, but they didn't disturb our privacy at all during the week.

STUNNING GARDENS AND LOVELY POOL AND FABULOUS OWNER
I’m so pleased I found this holiday home. The owners are lovely, and we got on very well. Laurence the lady speaks some English I speak some French so between us we were more like friends. My young adult nephews thought she was a lovely person too. A week wasn’t enough really because we found we were only a mile and a half from the coast road leading to Cancale. If your a seafood lover your in heaven!! Oyster beds everywhere the fish and seafood are exceptional. We found a shack with a pull in off the road and had a huge bowl of moules mariniere with local Breton cider for not a lot of money. Also Dol Bretagne is a fantastic medieval town with excellent shops and restaurants. In la Fresnais there is a Boulangerie selling fresh artisan bread from early morning and fantastic patisserie. The supermarket for a local one is very well stocked. Your on the outskirts of the village so if your fit it’s a 20 minute walk otherwise 5 minutes in the car. Your only 15 minutes from St Malo too. The property has 3 king sized (French) beds one on the ground floor. There is a wood burning stove but we never needed to use it. The kitchen is well equipped. The shower room is lovely too. The Gite is very comfortable. There are so many places you can eat in or out on the verandah or the picnic table. The garden goes on for ever and little tables and chairs or sunloungers are placed at intervals for quiet reflection. There are chickens at the bottom but the garden is so big you can’t hear them from the house. We had to push ourselves to leave the garden and the pool to sightsee especially when it was hot. We would definitely return and were so lucky to have found Laurence and Jacky and their Ebony Orchard Gite.

Beautiful, well equipped property with an amazing garden
Just returned from a very relaxing stay at the Ebony Orchard. The house is a lovely size and very tastefully decorated with comfortable seating in the lounge area and plenty of seating options to enjoy the wonderful garden. The pool was lovely for a refreshing dip in the afternoon and the height of the pool surround meant it was just like standing at a swim up bar. The wonderful gardens have to be seen to be believed as they seem to stretch on endlessly with their very own badminton and boules court. Laurence and Jacky were very friendly on the rare occasions that we saw them and I was very happy that Laurence's English was much better than my French. The village is about a mile away which was really handy as we visited the fantastic Boulangerie every day for their wonderful bread and croissant. This was a very restful and peaceful stay in tranquil surroundings which I would highly recommend. Diane & Bas

Great base to explore Brittany
This was our first experience of booking a house in France through this site, and although we had to use Google translate a few times I was glad we did. The owner was very quick to respond to our emails, and happy to answer any questions. Our SATNAV bought us straight to the house from Cherbourg ferry terminal in two hours, plus a small stop off to get supplies for our first night. The house has everything you could need and is equipped with all mod cons, coffee machine, dishwasher, washing machine, microwave etc.( you will need to remember to buy some toilet paper though) There are flat screen TV'S in all three bedrooms, and a large tv in the living room but no English channels, so be prepared to be truly immersed in the French holiday experience. Great shower room with loads of hot water, separate toilet off from the kitchen. We stayed for a week and although the pool was too cold to get in, it was lovely to sit out under the covered deck area in the evenings, or stroll around the beautifully kept gardens. Lots of places to go, Cancal is10 minutes down the road and serves up the most amazing sea food on huge platters, and the oyster beds have to be seen. Mont St Micheal and the horse drawn carriages is great, St Malo the walled city was great with some splendid views from around the walls , Dinard and Dinnas all great and have some great markets to look around. In Fresnais just two minutes by car you will find the local supermarket, and a lovely bread and cake shop. There is also a pizza restaurant on the edge of town that makes really good takeaway pizzas. We could have eaten out in Cancal every night it was so nice there, great atmosphere, and locals so friendly in the restaurants. Great house and central location, hosts live on site in an adjacent house by the road and bought us fresh eggs, very friendly and they speak some English. Quiet peaceful location, centrally located and decorated very tastefully. I would recommend this house if you are planning to visit Britany, you will not be disappointed.

Urlaub in einem großen botanischen Garten
Wir wurden von Laurence sehr nett empfangen und konnten uns jederzeit bei Fragen an sie wenden. Unsere Ferienwoche hatte auch Anfang September hochsommerliche Temperaturen und deshalb genoss ich es im Freien, in der Hängematte, zu schlafen und am Morgen den Vögeln zu lauschen, auch ein Füchslein hörte man. Schöne Strände findet man bei Cancale und viele Ausflugsziele in alle Richtungen. Auf dem GR 34 kann man an der Küsten entlang wandern. Vielen Dank an Familie Gauplé
