About this house rental
Le Haut Provost comprises two converted barns having all modern facilities, including fibre internet (never guaranteed) whilst still maintaining a rustic French country house feel. It sleeps 4 in the Main House and 2+2(mezzanine) in the Annexe. It is in a quiet country lane making it very safe for children and/or pets. There is a pretty, south-facing private garden, which has stunning uninterrupted views across open countryside.
The property is ideally situated to explore the area; it is 10 minutes from the medieval town of Rochefort and 15 minutes from the river port of La Roche Bernard. It is 30 minutes drive to several lovely sandy beaches, with plenty of rockpools, and a similar distance from the beautiful town of Vannes and the rest of the Golfe de Morbihan. Further afield, there is the walled town of Guerande, the trendy resort of La Baule and the busy cities of Nantes and Rennes.
THE MAIN HOUSE
Vaulted spacious sitting and dining room - Open fire, (logs supplied), exposed beams, sofa, old comfy chairs and plenty of books. There is a TV with soundbar and bluetooth connection for music, DVD and broadband Internet connection.
Enormous windows with far reaching views over the surrounding countryside open onto a clematis covered pergola with tiled garden table and seating. Barbecue available.
Family Bathroom: Spacious with double washbasins and walk-in shower.
Separate toilet
Kitchen: very well-equipped, dishwasher and washing machine. Lots of different coffee-making possibilities. Lovely exposed pointed stone wall, enormous beams.
Stairs lead up to a mezzanine office space with desk, sofabed, books and board games and a quirky gallery passage to the second bedroom. The stairs in the house are not suitable for people with mobility issues or unsupervised small children.
Master Bedroom: king-size double bed, chest of drawers and seating area. Hanging space outside the room.
Second bedroom: twin beds that may be pushed together. Chest of drawers.
Upstairs toilet and washbasin.
Annexe Cottage - A little guest house situated at the bottom of the garden with its own shower room. The corner sofa is also a very comfortable double bed and upstairs on the mezzanine there are 2 single beds and shelving for clothes - note: the stairs are very steep. An extra charge of £100 is required to cover the extra linen and cleaning. This is the ideal teenage 'pad'. It is not available as a separate rental.
There is also a selection of garden furniture and some outside games. Linen and towels are supplied (not beach towels). There is a travel cot and a moveable zedbed, although the property is not suitable for toddlers due to the stairs.
Large log fire for Autumn. Fans available for hot summer nights.

It is a well-equipped cottage with all comforts in a beautiful and quiet area. It is a good area for walking and cycling but it’s also close to nice sights for example Vannes and Roche-Bernard. We realy enjoyed our stay.

The house was perfect for our family. Kitchen was more than equipped with everything you need. We had a perfect holiday. I wish to Thank Jilly to use for a small extra to use the electricity to load my hybrid car. The deer came each day close to the house ;-) . The surroundings are beautiful for relaxing and walks through the forest. Big supermarkets are close by. You need to take the car for your breakfast but it is close by. And yes there are insects, but you are outdoors so ...... The insect lamp has done its job very well ;-).
Jill, a outdoor table would be maybe a tip for you for next time. End conclusion. Money wise you get what you pay for. A nice house with all the comfort you need to have a nice holiday. I recommend this for those who love to be away from tourist areas .

On a passé un très bon séjour. Le calme est très bien pour se reposer. Il faut une voiture pour faire des excursions.

Die Betten waren statt der von der Besitzerin in einer Mail angegebenen 1.80 nur 1.50 und 1.40 breit ( das war ein ausgezogenes Schlafsofa mit Rückenlehne, so dass man übereinander hätte aussteigen müssen-für Kinder sicher ganz lustig, für Erwachsene leider überhaupt nicht). Gott sei Dank hatten wir eigenes weiteres Bettzeug dabei und haben uns selbst die Einzelbetten bezogen. Das Zimmer der Einzelbetten war nur mit einem Stoffvorhang vom Wohnzimmer getrennt. Es fehlten Ablageflächen und Schränke bzw Kleiderstangen Nur 1 Schlafzimmer hatte eine Kommode und einen Kleiderständer und war auch ansonsten in einem frischen Zustand. Das Nebenhaus mit dem Schlafsofa dient überwiegend als Abstellraum für allerlei Geräte. Im Bad in diesem Hausteil war auch Schimmel im unteren Teil der Wände. Die beste Putzfrau der Welt ist nicht in der Lage dieses Objekt in nur 2 Stunden inklusive Bettenbeziehen zu reinigen und auch mal die Gartenmöbel zu reinigen zu Beginn der Saison. Es gab nur 1 dünne Auflage für die Gartenliegen und 4 fleckige kleine Kissen für die Stühle und die Holzbänke. Für einen Preis von über 900 Euro pro Woche in der Vorsaison, hatten wir 4 mehr erwartet.
Positiv ist die Lage des Hauses, der Garten und die beiden netten Nachbarn und das alles funktioniert hat ( Wasser, Elektrizität …) .
Insgesamt ist das Haus für ein Elternpaar mit mehreren Kindern geeignet, denen sind sicher z. B. durchgesessene Sessel und leben aus der Reisetasche ziemlich egal.
