What could be more pleasant than a place of your own for a week or two deep in the heart of the enchanting Brittany countryside with the added attractions of a large heated swimming pool and a family pitch and putt golf course.
In Botcoet the hectic pace of
modern life is replaced by the daily commuting of cows from the local
farms and the local roads are noticeably free of traffic.
Botcoet is a small community of some three working farms and associated
cottages with a total population of about 20 people. If you have a liking
for the tranquillity of the countryside you will be captivated by it.
Until recently the accommodation was
also a working farm, dating back to 1858. The buildings have now been
internally designed by a local French architect and tastefully converted
to provide first class accommodation with a high standard of comfort.
At the same time great care has been taken to preserve the original
exteriors and all the old world charm you would come to expect from this
part of the country.
With the opportunity to eat at home you can take advantage of the
excellent local produce and because of Brittany's large coastline there is
a thriving fishing industry so a wide variety of superb fresh seafood is
readily available from the nearby shops.
Alternatively sample some of the many restaurants, bars, cafes or
creperies in the area.
The rural position of the site means there is an abundance of wild life
and at night the call of an owl or the bark of a fox is quite common.
If you want a change of scenery, an hours drive will find the coast with
good beaches to the south and rocky inlets to the north.
