Talhouet Kerquere is located in the very pretty commune of Quistinic, which is also the home of POUL FETAN, a restored Breton village where you can experience a taste of Brittany as it was a couple of centuries ago.

We are only 5 mins from the Blavet river where you can hire Kayaks or take a guided boat trip to explore the river. There is a towpath alongside the river which is not accessible to cars but ideal for cycling, fishing or just walking.

There are numerous restaurants and bars within a 15 min drive.

Newly opened in 2014 is a young childrens theme park called KINGOLAND which is about a 20 min drive near Locmine.

The pool is lovely! Really peaceful location. Nearby Quistinic is a great little town. Fab area for cycling and walking, and we ate some amazing food in the local area. Really enjoyable holiday, would definitely visit again.

We had a lovely and peaceful week at Sweet Chestnut cottage, with everything we needed to cook and look after ourselves. The pool was perfectly heated and well maintained, and lots of space for the kids to run riot. There were guests staying in the other properties but it was easy to stay out of each others’ way. We rented kayaks on the Blavet river and our boys (3 and 7) had a marvellous time at La Balade du Père Nicolas, an “organic theme park” with go karts and slides etc only 15 mins drive away. The house was clean but “well loved” to put it kindly (and priced accordingly!) It worked extremely well for our needs as a young family of limited means.

Good location for travel to the south coast of Brittany - 45/50 minutes to most places. Handy also for cycling especially along the River Blavet and the canal at Pontivy. Great swimming pool ! Help at hand if needed ( we didn't but always good to know ). Comfortable cottage.

A typical, quaint Breton cottage but all the amenities that we required were available. Having the swimming pool was a bonus and the area is perfect for visiting a range of attractions, for example. Auray, Carnac, Josselin, Etel and Poul Fetan village. Good communication with the owner in England and Rob, the on-site manager, was excellent and very helpful. We appreciated the Welcome Pack and would recommend staying.

A lovely holiday cottage in the Countryside near to Bubry / Quistinic. Fantastic pool and gardens, and the accommodation was just right for a family of 4. Unfortunately the weather was awful week 1; but the Gite is lovely, with UK TV; and good facilities. Be prepared to have to travel each day if you want to go to the Beach - approx 40kms to Lorient and 50kms away to Carnac and the Brittainy beaches. But the cottage had a fantastic swimming pool facility which was immaculately clean and well-kept by Rob! Bike storage is available and lots of outdoor games and bikes to borrow. Lots to do when the weather is good - but the location is quite away from any large towns and the nearby villages of Bubry and Quistinic are VERY quiet. Great for a rural getaway holiday when the weather is good - but there's not many restaurants nearby or things to do in the bad weather! If the weather is good - this is a fantastic place to stay and explore Brittainy. The hosts were fantastic and Rob and Rosie were very helpful and welcoming! (Thank you for a lovely holiday, and the weather can't be helped!)

Beautiful gite in a very quiet location....just the sound of the birds twittering. The gite was spotlessly clean & well equipped. Some lovely places, close by, to visit. The manager was very cheerful & helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. ...he was on site everyday to clean the swimming pool. All in all, a perfect week in this gorgeous gite. Would definitely recommend this place!

The cottage was as described in the advert. A lovely looking cottage with all you needed for a pleasant stay. Only couple of points were the towels, which had been washed but did smell old and musty. The swimming pool also is in need of some repair work but we appreciate that this may be a cost implication that hasn't been achieved yet. However that did not stop us enjoying the use of the pool as often as we could.

We spent a lovely 2 weeks in this pretty cottage. The cottage is clean and has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. The pool was a lovely addition. The location of the cottage was great it was so peaceful and there were lots of fun and interesting places to visit nearby. The information booklet was very handy and useful! Marcus is a brilliant host, very helpful and easy to contact via the message service. Rob and Rosie the caretakers were very friendly and always available to help with any issues we had. All in all a really great holiday. Thank you
