| Your hosts - Henry & Ruth - live in a special corner of north-eastern Brittany, close to the Normandy border. Situated just a few miles away from the coast and with wonderful views of Mont-St-Michel, "La Ferme de la Baie" is ideally located for fun-filled family holidays, interesting activity breaks and relaxing, leisurely weekends & mid-week stays. |
|
|
|
|
"La Ferme de la Baie" is in a rural hamlet, La Rue, and is surrounded by peaceful, unspoilt countryside. Built in the 18th century, the farm and its buildings originally formed part of the estate belonging to La Rue’s manoir.
Fresh bread is delivered to La Rue three times a week or is available every day from the boulangerie in Roz-sur-Couesnon (a mile away). Roz-sur-Couesnon also has a boucherie and a small grocery shop. |

|
|
Set in two acres of gardens and grounds, "La Ferme de la Baie" has three stone cottages for self-catering holidays - Le Fenil (for 8 people), Romarin (for 4 people) and Abricot (for 4 people). All three cottages are south facing and each has its own enclosed garden area. In addition, Bed & Breakfast accommodation is available in the main farmhouse.
We aim to make your stay with us as enjoyable as possible and will do all that we can to ensure that your holiday runs smoothly. Should you have any specific needs or requirements, do please let us know.
Please note that our properties are non-smoking. Pets may sometimes be allowed - please ask for further details. |

| Relaxing weekends |
We are open all year round, both for long weekends and mid-week stays. Peace and tranquillity are guaranteed, along with cosy accommodation and a very warm welcome! |

| Family holidays |
"La Ferme de la Baie" is ideal for family holidays and groups of friends wanting to enjoy a break together.
Our free-range hens may come and visit you at breakfast time to see if there is anything spare to eat. Our flock of sheep includes both "Ouessants" (a miniature breed from the west of Brittany) and some "normal" white sheep - and we hope to have some lambs in the spring. Round about the same time, our piglets will arrive and set up home at the far end of the field. All our animals will definitely entertain young and old alike! |

|
|
| Activity breaks |
Leisure and sporting activity breaks - such as cycling and golf weekends - are hosted outside the main school holiday dates. Bed & Breakfast accommodation is available in the farmhouse and larger groups are accommodated in our cottages. |
