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 flooring upstairs, bio-based paints…: a place that is both comfortable and environmentally friendly.
