Previous visitor comments
I just wanted to contact you to say that we have had a fantastic holiday in France and one of the highlights has been the discovery of the bed and breakfast accommodation near St Malo. You couldn't ask for anything more. The place is stunning. Our children were enchanted. The food that was prepared for our evening meal was delicious. And Sue & Steve, the owners, were so nice and friendly. Nothing is too much for them and you leave feeling totally and utterly relaxed and ready for your vacation. The best start to any holiday I've ever had. So much so that we wouldn't hesitate to recommend this to anyone, but part of us wants to keep this gem to ourselves!!! We will definitely go again. I'm starting to save for a longer visit next time. Thank you for all of your help and please feel free to use these comments.- the Easts
