About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Country cottage, pets allowed - 13 guests

What if your next getaway was all about nature, conviviality, and wide open spaces? Just a few minutes from Mont des Avaloirs, this gîte welcomes you to a peaceful countryside setting in Pré-en-Pail.

You'll find a fireplace in the living room, 5 bedrooms, and 3 bathrooms for your comfort, including one accessible for people with reduced mobility.
The gîte is surrounded by meadows, with hiking trails just 400 meters away, perfect for exploring on foot, by bike, or on horseback.

And right in front of the gîte… you'll meet Jojo, the property's donkey. He might greet you with a "hee-haw"—don't worry, it's just his way of saying hello.

Inside and out, everything is designed for sharing: board games, a ping-pong table, shuffleboard, and mölkky. The owners opted for ecological and healthy materials: natural terracotta tiles, lime-hemp plaster, linseed oil-based flooring upstairs, bio-based paints…: a place that is both comfortable and environmentally friendly.

Un gîte très bien conçu et équipé, dans un cadre exceptionnel de calme et de nature.Sylvain Souti est un hôte accueillant et prévenant, disponible et plein de bons conseils.Les adultes ont particulièrement apprécié l'attention portée au respect de l'environnement et à l'économie des ressources naturelles et les enfants le contact avec Jojo l'âne et la modularité des chambres, très pratiques à reconfigurer avec leurs lits simples.Nous recommandons chaleureusement ce gîte et aurons plaisir à y retourner dans les prochaines années.

Gîte très accueillant, calme, en pleine verdure et très bien équipé

Nous avons été accueillis par le propriétaire du gîte qui avait pris soin d'allumer le chauffage avant notre arrivée. Le gîte se situe en pleine campagne, au calme, avec quelques animaux. Il est très bien équipé et dispose de nombreuses chambres, confortables, dont certaines avec salle d'eau privative. Il est parfait pour une réunion de famille.
