Item Description

The area of Brittany is known for its miles of awe-inspiring coastline, outdoor activities, and rugged beauty. A trip to the Brittany countryside will show you a side of France that will warm your heart and give you the much-needed getaway that you deserve.

For one week, you can stay in a six-bedroom two and a half bathroom house in Saint-Jacques, Sarzeau on the Rhyus Peninsula, on the edge of the Gulf of Morbihan. The Rhuys Peninsula is a coastal region where the genuineness of the countryside, people, creeks, pine woods, and long beaches will provide you with peace and tranquility. This lovely home is easily large enough for twelve people and offers all the comforts and amenities you'll need for your seaside vacation, including a large yard with outdoor furniture and fireplace-  a great way to enjoy the cool evening sea breeze. The upstairs has a separate entrance and is complete with its own kitchen making this home perfect for two families!

Only 150 meters away is a pristine, gorgeous beach, ready and waiting for you and your family to enjoy. Each day can be a new adventure, whether it's boating, biking, hiking, or just enjoying the scenic seaside. If you are a seafood fanatic, then be prepared to eat some of the freshest, most delicious seafood available.

Saint-Jacques Harbour is a small, sheltered port noted for its bass, amongst other delicacies. A paradise for fishing and leisure, Saint-Jacques Harbour and close by Le Roaliguen are comfortable-sized coastal villages, ready for you to explore. You can always take advantage of the home's fully-equipped kitchens to make a seafood extravaganza to remember!

You can also travel 35 minutes to the beautiful 16th century town of Vannes. There, you can visit the Cathedrale Saint-Pierre, the local Museum of Fine Arts, or just stop by the march to pick up one of Brittany's delicious, yet simple indulgences- Galettes Bretonnes (a heavenly butter cookie). This seaside escape is waiting for you, and is available from June 11-18, 2011 or June 18-25, 2011.

Limitations: Lot is for one week stay at a home in Brittany during the dates noted above. Does not include airfare, transportation, or meals.
