The Property
Nestling in rural France, between the market towns of Redon and La Roche Bernard, the well-equipped gite of les Chenes is on the edge of the historic village of Sainte Anne and is part of a traditional Breton farmhouse, with 2 foot thick granite stone walls under a slate roof.
The cottage of les Chenes offers a lovely base to explore from, but with its pretty south facing garden you may just want to stay 'home'. Les Chenes is surrounded by mixed woodland, cider apple orchards and farmland and is 5 minutes from the Vilaine River.
The gite of "Les Chenes" has been renovated using traditional materials where possible, retaining its authentic, rustic French charm along with modern comforts (like a flushing loo). The design, furnishing and equipment has been carefully chosen with your comfort in mind.
Les Chenes is privately owned and available all year for holidays or as a house-hunting base, while you search this beautiful area for a cottage of your own.
