La Lohuas Gites in Brittany

Set in rural farmland of over four acres, La Lohuas has a several discreet outside areas within it's boundaries. Each with it's own attraction and character.

The most popular with children is the fenced and secure play area, which has been designed to ensure that children can "let their hair down" without disturbing the other guests. Here we have a huge open-fronted barn with children's toys, sandpit and a table tennis table. An ideal distraction if ever it rains, but with the added bonus of being shaded from the sun on the hottest of days. Next to the barn is a large lawned area with a 14 foot trampoline, swings, slide, see-saw and football and badminton nets.

For a more tranquil environment, away from the gites, take a stroll pass the old well through the tree-covered pathway down to the grotto. Here you will find the old farmhouse (the current farmhouse was built in 1870), an ancient communal bread oven, cider press and a small stream at the bottom of the hill. This setting provides a sanctuary for wildlife and birds and boasts a host of different types of wild flowers. Every morning there is an opportunity for children (and adults too!) to feed the animals with the owner.

A small orchard with Walnut, Apple, Pear and Cherry trees, gives an ideal setting to relax in the shade on hot sunny days. Many different types of birds can be seen here and in the evenings a gentle hum of crickets makes this a special place.
