Maroux Vian Luxury Country Cottages

Lovely property with amazing hosts, couldn't wish for any more!

We had a wonderful weeks holiday at Maroux Vian. Paula and Andy were very welcoming and the perfect hosts, they really couldn’t have done more to make our stay special. The Gîte was clean, tidy, comfortable and a great base for the week. The rest of the facilities at Maroux Vian are superb - we particularly loved the pool and hot tub. The property is set within typically picturesque Brittany countryside and there are plenty of local places that are well worth a visit without having to venture too far afield. Particular highlights for us were Gorges du Carong and The Valley of Saints. The nearest town is Callac which is a couple of miles away. There you’ll find, amongst other things, Sarl Ty Coz, a lovely little bakery in the square, and a well stocked Intermarché. There are also a couple of electric car charging sites should you need it. The little lake on the outskirts of Callac is well worth a wander round and makes a great picnic spot. I’d recommend Maroux Vian wholeheartedly - we will return!

What an absolutely wonderful holiday we had at Maroux Vian. From the moment we pulled up at the property to be greeted by Andy and Paula, to the (sad) moment Paula waved us off as we departed, we were made to feel so welcome. We've stayed in some very nice holiday cottages over the years, but nothing to beat Maroux Vian. The charming gite (we stayed in 'Papillon') was spotlessly clean, beautifully furnished, and extremely well-equipped. The welcome pack which greeted us upon our arrival was exactly that - very welcome - and the most generous and thoughtful example of its kind we've ever had. This set the tone for our stay. We only saw Andy briefly as he had to leave for the UK, but Paula made us feel truly at home. Nothing was too much trouble for her. She was always there if needed but never obtrusive. Our daughters, aged 14 and 12, had a fantastic time in and around the fabulous pool, and enjoyed very much the brilliant hot-tub. The games area is wonderful, several games of badminton were enjoyed, and we had a lovely walk through the woodland which belongs to the property. Lots of lovely days out, helped by expert advice from Paula, and equally lovely days in. And, thanks to Paula's excellent culinary skills and wonderful hospitality, I had a birthday I'll remember forever. (I recommend the paella!) In summary, we cannot praise highly enough the whole experience of holidaying at Maroux Vian. We are so grateful to our lovely hosts, and we truly hope to return again to this fabulous place in the not-too-distant future.

We spent a wonderful week in Brittany and thoroughly loved our holiday there. Paula and Andy were incredibly thoughtful in making our stay memorable and one we would want to repeat. They made numerous suggestions for things to do that would appeal to our two young boys. We were made to feel really welcome the whole time. The boys loved the pool and practically had gills by the end of the week due to the amount of time spent in the water. When not in the pool another lovely surprise was the outdoor games provided that amused the boys for hours. We have discovered that we all love to play badminton and boules!! Another highlight of the week was the meal that Paula cooked. We opted for a Paella and it was a feast for the whole family. The location is in the countryside and is really quiet which was great. It is pretty easy to get around to wherever you want to go and I was pleasantly surprised by how little traffic there was in general. A lovely holiday.
