A beautiful house set in a mature enclosed private garden
Murmur y Coed is in a peaceful rural setting with beautiful views. It is surrounded by lovely villages. The kitchen is light and airy and leads into an inviting dining/lounge area with plenty of comfortable seating. There is a small enclosed porch which is a bit of a sun trap. Outside there is a mature garden with table & chairs for al-fresco dining & an aboveground pool. POOL OPEN 17/07/26 - 17/09/26 There is gas central heating. Linen and towels provided.
Murmur y coed is in central west Brittany, an hour from the rugged northern coast with amazing restaurants and sights and an hour from beautiful Concarneau which is also close to Pont Aven, an inspiration to many Impressionist artists. An hour to the west is the Crozon peninsula with its award winning beaches. From spectacular rugged coastlines to vast sandy expanses, to peaceful woods and forests and with the famous Nantes-Brest Canal, Brittany has all the makings of a perfect holiday. The cuisine in the area includes crepes and galettes and of course the seafood! Mussels and oysters are available throughout the region, particularly in the summer months. Cider is produced here and local varieties are available in all supermarkets and restaurants. During the summer numerous villages and towns celebrate the"Pardon" which is predominantly a religious thanksgiving but is always followed by a celebratory meal (with a drink or two!) and Breton dancing.
Other places of interest include: Plougonver – La Vallee des Bambous Carnoet -La Vallee des Saints Huelgoat -Gateway to the Mont D'Arres national park Plougonver – Biscuiterue Menou, museum and shop. Poullaouen -local village and access to the Morlaix-Carhaix voie verte cycle path In Carhaix you will find a small golf course and Karaez Adrenaline which is great fun for adults and children including zip line courses. In Carhaix in the third week of July – Les Vieilles Charrues, the biggest music festival in France.

Enjoyed our stay in Murmur-y-coed. If you are looking for a place to unwind, this is it. The rural surroundings are wonderful and at the same time the location for day trips is perfect. The garden is very nice, I would have loved to have a seating area there. The house is comfortable with a very spacious kitchen with all amenities you might need. Comfortable bed in the large bedroom. I would recommend to visit the nearby La Vallee des Saints.
