Our holiday cottage of 20 years is available at a small cost for family and 'new' friends to enjoy. Ferry and flight costs for the summer are pretty reasonable at present so it may be worth considering before they go up. It is free for the school summer hols after 6 August, at May half term and for most of the spring and also into the Autumn. I'll upload more pictures later

PM me for full details. Very family friendly but suitable for couples and groups too.

Built in 1870 this stone cottage is in a peaceful hamlet close to Huelgoat in North Finistere. 40mins from coasts, 5 mins from town and village. Wild and less wild walks, cycling (a number of bikes are provided), nature, cultural stuff, smaller theme parks, tree top adventure and plenty of other activities. A gentle nine hole golf course. 

Large bedroom with double four poster bed, bunks and spare single bed. Second double bedroom. Large lounge with wood burner, Bed settee downstairs and glamping in the barn! Bedding, BBQ, games, table football, bikes, canoe and other stuff provided. Refurbished bathroom with large walk in shower. Comfortably sleeps six, potentially more, could take two young families, 1/2 an acre of land.

Ideal if you like the outdoor life, star gazing after you have seen bats, a bit of privacy and want to avoid the masses. A minimum of a week but flexible on arrival and departure days.

I was asked about going late or early in the year.  There is a lovely wood burner but it would take a lot of wood to heat in say November or February to get it to a comfortable temperature so I don't take guests during the late Autumn and winter months.  We use it every Easter and I do a few days in the autumn to 'close it down for the winter'.  I was doing some work during the 'Beast from the East', massive wind chill when I got back to Stansted but much calmer in Brittany due to the maritime climate.  But whilst cutting wood it started to snow, quite rare in that neck of the woods, so I took some photos

New year and the sun is almost shining, so some of you may be looking forward to holidays later in the year.  Do message me for details and I will send you guides with more photos and plenty of information.  I had a few days out there in December, a first, repairing minor storm damage to an out building.  I can include some photos of my adventure!  It's free for many of the spring, summer and Autumn months.

    • Some employers prefer older people as they are deemed to be more reliable, B and Q at one time had lots of 'older people'. I retired at 66  but on a casual visit to my old department, my former boss offered me a job saying I could name my hours. Would have loved to taken him up on it but the reason I took 'early retirement' was that my arthritis restricted my mobility re walking and standing for periods of time.  I would say it may not be ageism but not being deemed suitable for the position.  Someone I know was always looking for part time work but having spoken to her over a period of years, although she may have had the qualifications  needed for the work, her general attitude towards others and her very set views, I could understand why she found paid employment difficult to achieve. Can you do voluntary work? This may give you additional transferable skills.
    • Rye cars V or uber - haven’t been let down by either
    • Another shout for them. They picked us up at Heathrow on time and met us at departures. Clean car and friendly driver too. Only use them for an airport run but have always been reliable
