House ploubalay

Farm in Ploubalay

Visited another place today, an old farm and buildings near Ploubalay. It's actually quite close to the other house in Ploubalay and again close to the coast. The building had some nice original features, with good stonework and curved granite doorways etc.

The downside was the close proximity of other farm houses which were not part of the sale. Also the land had been divided up rather oddly which meant that you needed to go through one of the buildings to get to the land at the rear. Because the land at the rear overlapped the adjacent buildings there was no real access from the back of the buildings. You would have to come out the front door then back through a gap further down the building.

It all felt a bit closed in and claustrophobic even though it was surrounded by fields.

These are our experiences of running a gite business in Brittany, France. A gite is the French equivalent of a country holiday cottage. French culture, language, taxes and bureaucracy. Find out about our gites using the links on the LHS. This is our fourth season (2006) and we are looking forward to the summer. Stories about the road to this point will be added in due course. Renovation nightmares, builders, stress, schooling etc. Stay tuned.
