Description of facilities: Bougainville is a really cosy and authentic-type thatch house. Newly renovated, it has kept much of its charm throughout. The shower-room and toilet is downstairs and upstairs there is an open mezzanine, which has a double bed and there's also room for a cot or even a single bed, if needed. Downstairs, there's the kitchenette and a double sofa bed. there is a small private terrace, where you can enjoy the views of the sun setting on the 8000m2 garden.
We are in the midst of putting in a new pool, so photos will be up around April 2008!
Description inside property: Bougainville (New in 2007) is a cute thatched house. Set amongst a thatched village, it is ideal for a couple with a young child, or a romantic escapade for 2! it's fully equipped and has retained much of it's original features, included the thatch , which is visible from the bedroom.Gorgeous! Such an authentic feel...
Description outside property: Bougainville is situated amongst a village of other thatched houses. There is a private terrace, with charis and table. The sun loungers are available for use on request. The environment is quiet and very picturesque. It is situated at a 5 minutes walk from the famous village POUL FETAN, which has a creperie and bar there. It is a short drive to the main village, Quistinic, which has many pretty attractions. There is a creperie, a few bars and a small shop which acts, both, as a boulangerie, and "superette".
The river, the Blavet is just a few minutes away, by one of the many walking tracks or by car, and is a beautiful and peaceful environment. One can encounter fishermen, bike riders or just people walking along the river.
Cycling, hiking and walking are well catered for and are popular.
Description of eco friendly facilities: Thatch is a perfect material for isolation. Keeps the heat and cold at bay. Not only is it natural, it is also typically Breton. Not many houses have kept the thatch, and especially in Bougainville, the thatch is visible. Other natural materials we have used, for our the pointing of the walls, is a mixture of lime, hemp and water. It keeps the house luminous and, again, warm or cool.
We also have a compost area in our garden, for those who are amateurs of gardening!
Our family tries to ensure that the environment we have is preserved... Not only with building materials, but also with recycling. Even if it's not much, it's a start! We hope our holidayers enjoy this eco-friendly holiday :)

You can finish your visit by having a galette or "une bolée" of cider there. There are also, plenty of hiking paths, you can also cycle around and take in the breathtaking views of the Blavet or just the valleys. You can also rent canoes or kayaks and go on the Blavet for the day. If you want to soak up some sun, Carnac beach is not too far away either. Of course, you can walk the small streets of the surrounding villages and taste local specialities from the markets. |
