We stayed for a month in "Ker Toud" - which I understand is Breton for the Owl House - as guests of the proprietors, Martin and Clara Cronin. We nearly didn't arrive on time as our hire vehicle GPS was outdated and some of the road signs were a little obscured/confusing to us, but when we did eventually arrive we were warmly greeted by our hostess, Clara. She showed us through the gite and how to work the TV, washing machine, coffee machine etc. Our kitchen was well-equipped and there was plenty of room, so of course we had to re-arrange a few things to suit ourselves! The house, including the bathroom, cook-top and oven, was clean and tidy and there was a library of pamphlets and maps, very helpful for novice explorers. There was a choice of two outdoor settings which we used to advantage during good weather, and since Martin and Clara spoke both French and English they were able to help us when we needed some guidance with local names. Oh, and the WiFi speed was excellent; we were able to Skype friends and family back in Australia with no difficulty - apart of course, from noting Time Zone differentials! We enjoyed our stay and - wait for it - we were almost sorry to say Goodbye!

We are a family of four with two boys aged 10 and 12. We stayed at Ker Toud (Owl House) which sleeps four and is joined to the owner's house and the larger gite called The Grange.
The property is sympathetically restored and has high quality fixtures and fittings throughout. It is well-equipped and spotlessly clean. There is a lot of outdoor space for children to play. Our boys played football with the owner's son (who was of a similar age) in their garden and enjoyed using the tramopoline. There are horses and a donkey round the back which you can feed. The property is close to some fabulous beaches around the coast but is set in a quiet area near country lanes that are great for cycling. The owners are helpful and welcoming.

Pretty, spacious, clean,comfortable, and well equipped gite in an ideal location for exploring the area and coast.
Easy to reach from the port of Roscoff.
Ideal facilities for
wheelchair users/disabled. The owners are very friendly and helpful.
We had a wonderful holiday as the gite met the needs of our disabled family member.
We highly recommend a holiday at La Grange.

This gite did not disappoint in anyway,It was all of the above and much more. Clara and Martin are discreet, genuine and careing hosts and undoubtedly go that extra mile for their guests.
Lannion, is just a short drive away. But take note if you have a walking disabilitie as the streets are very steep. The coast around the area is beautiful .the French somehow even in the more touristy areas get it right. Would we stay there again ? A resounding YES!
