1 La Vieille Ferme at La Julerie Summary Located in a quiet rural setting yet near historic towns and safe sandy beaches, groups welcome, seating for 24 in this gite.20% ferry discount available. Description If your idea of a holiday is where you can enjoy splendid scenery, visit historic towns, see the local culture being displayed at many festivals, and possibly spend some time enjoying the beaches, or walking around the cliffs, and along quiet country roads, or playing golf, and last but not least tasting real local food Look no further. Come to La Julerie and enjoy all of these pastimes and ways of life in Le Côte D Armor. We have converted the farm longhouse and stables at La Julerie into 4 Gîtes. Each cottage has been individually recreated in the Breton style and we have taken great care to ensure that all the beautiful original timbers are exposed throughout, but at the same time have equipped each cottage with fitted kitchen, comfortable chairs and sofas & French/English TV, DVD players, wooden patio tables & chairs & barbeque equipment. The barn has been converted into a large games/leisure room with a table tennis table, a seating area, sit on toys for the younger children and books and games for all; there are 2 shower changing rooms and also a small kitchen and a toilet; guests have held their wedding receptions, anniversary parties etc in this large leisure room and adjoining the this large room we have installed a heated indoor swimming pool, but one with its own glass retractable cover, so in hot weather it is converted to an open air pool. Surrounding the pool there is an enclosed patio with lounging seats for our guests. La Julerie slopes gently to the south and is a natural suntrap. As there are no other properties on the road to La Julerie and with space in our yard many guests bring their children s cycles to use around La Julerie. We have now listed over 60 types of birds and there are many swallows flying around the buildings throughout the summer; they

2 still nest in some of the buildings. At night time you may are more likely to hear owls than cars. La Vieille Ferme is, as its name applies the old farmhouse. La Vieille Ferme has the largest ground-floor area of any of our Gites at La Julerie and is a must when looking for a group booking as it can easily seat 24 people together around the tables. La Vieille Ferme has a patios both in front and to the rear of the cottage, its lawned garden area is alongside the cottage; the rest of the 1/2 hectare of garden area is for use for all With central heating and also a wood-burner this will make ideal holiday accommodation all year. We have an elevated playhouse with swings, a slide & a fireman's pole for the children and also another groundlevel playhouse alongside the sandpit for the younger children. We do cater for weekend breaks and holidays of less than 7 days apart from during july & August. Please not that for all bookings of less than a full week, guests will be charged for 1 night longer than they stay. We have virtually all of the equipment that parents need when taking their children on holiday; please ask for details of all the items you will not need pack! Lydiane, our French daughter in law has her own hair salon across the yard from the gites and will take care of the hair of any of our guests during their stay. Wedding guest please book before arriving, but others can decide after arrival! As a member of Brittany Ferries travel club I am able to get all of our guests 20% discount on their ferry tickets when travelling with this company. La Julerie is only 18km (about 20 min drive) from the coast which offers a large number of safe sandy beaches, which is what all children adore; several beaches offer sailing, and all types of surfing schools wind, kite and sand yachts; just what the teenagers and more adventurous adults enjoy. There are many offshore islands well worth a visit at low tide, for the whole family to enjoy. We know from experience that the young children really enjoy looking in the ponds as the tide recedes for little fish and shrimps and crabs, and also collecting some of the lovely shells to be found in the sand- quite often we just reach the island and find it is time to return ahead of a rising tidebut always with really happy children! La Julerie is only 10km from the historic town of Dinan where you can see many medieval buildings, or enjoy their weekly market or wander down a cobbled street to the port and enjoy lunch alongside the river. The world famous Mont St Michel is less than an hour s drive from La Julerie as is the capital of Brittany- Rennes where you will find museums featuring the history of this ancient part of France. St Malo and Dinard face each other across the estuary of the River Rance; St Malo is a busy port and a centre for yachting but also a hive of activity as a popular tourist centre, whilst its neighbour across the river hosts the annual British Film Festival each September. Dinard boasts beach tents for changing in in 2018! However, at La Julerie we can offer you first and foremost A Warm Welcome, and also peace and quiet, where you are more likely to hear owls at night-time thank cars.
