Wir waren als Paar zwei Wochen im Haus und es hat alles gepasst. Gute Ausstattung, geschmackvolle Einrichtung, große, ruhige Terrasse und, wer es denn braucht, deutsche Fernsehsender. Zentrale Lage, direkt am Leuchtturm.Gerne wieder, wenn wir eine Reise in die Bretagne planen sollten.

Wunderbare Bretagne-Woche in schönem Haus

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Woche in Penmarch Saint Pierre und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. Das Haus ist liebevoll eingerichtet und sehr gut ausgestattet. Es fehlt an nichts (u.a. Föhn, Waschmaschine, Grill, deutschsprachige TV-Sender)! Der Vermieter ist immer ansprechbar und reagiert sofort, die Kommunikation war sehr freundlich (wir sprechen Französisch).
