La Bellieuse - Ideal for couples

Nestled into an ancient hamlet down a lane next to St Martin’s parish church, La Bellieuse is the perfect spot for a relaxing getaway.

There are two quaint cottages on the site, each with one cosy attic bedroom with a king-size bed. The cottages are just a few minutes’ walk from the parish centre, which includes food and clothes shops, cafes, and hotels for bar meals.    

! Stay 3 nights between January and March 2026 and receive a complimentary 3 course dinner from their set menu, valued at £25 per person.

Le Douit - 1 and 2 bedroom apartments

Located just one minute down the lane from La Bellieuse, Le Douit provides 1- and 2-bedroom apartments with a family bathroom or shower room.

The idyllic cottages are converted from the farm’s granite barns and are the perfect setting for a relaxing break in peaceful, family-friendly surroundings, with activities not far away.

Fully equipped kitchens, on-site laundry facilities, a playing space (with a children’s swing and rope for climbing) and picnic tables allow you to holiday at your own pace. There is also free WIFI, an on-site housekeeper and parking.
