The location is great for exploring Western Brittany. Claire and Richard are the perfect hosts: very attentive and helpful but always mindful of their guests privacy. The room looks even nicer than on the pictures and felt really comfortable. We would have gladly stayed longer if we could.

Restful break
If you are looking for a peaceful and tucked away setting away from it all, then Penlan Gites are for you. We had a wonderful one week stay in April 2014. Richard and Claire are happy to offer help and information if needed and made us feel welcome the moment we arrived.
The property is in first class order and We would recommend these gites to our family and friends, we will differently be returning.

Delightful cottage in the midst of verdant nature
Just what we were looking for: a spacious and quiet place where to spend a few days in a natural park but within driving distance from the best beaches and interesting places in western Brittany.
The room was clean and provided with all one may need, including a bottle of wine, a baguette and cheese that generously welcomed us at arrival.
Richard was also very attentive in showing us how everything worked in the room, and in telling us about the best restaurants to visit in the neighborhood.
I would definitely like to stay there again in the near future.
Le logement est joli, très propre, bien équipé, confortable et calme. Richard est sympathique, très réactif et arrangeant . De plus, il a eu de touchantes attentions culinaires à notre arrivée. Nous recommandons vraiment ce lieu et son hôte.
Wir waren zum zweiten Mal dort und es war wieder richtig schön. Ruhig gelegen in ländlicher Umgebung, genau das richtige um sich vom Alltag zu erholen. Vielen Dank an Claire und Richard für die freundliche Begrüßung und Betreuung.
Le gite est confortable et cosy. Richard vous accueille très gentiment et est présent si besoin. Plein de petites attentions de bienvenue. A 30 mn de la mer.
Logement correspondant à la description et spacieux pour 2 personnes. Très bon contact avec le propriétaire qui habite à côté, qui est disponible et discret. Petit espace extérieur tranquille, endroit très calme. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour.
