“A wonderful and relaxing stay at the Manoir”
| | An absolutely fantastic holiday rental set in rural Brittany countryside. The house was furnished with
everything we could ever need during our stay and much much more. The owners have taken every care over the furnishing of
this property - little things like the bedroom black out blinds and super-comfy mattresses completely exceeded our expectations!.
Kids are particularly well catered for and the private extensive grounds complete with heated swimming pool, games barn and
trampoline were perfect for entertaining the children in our group. Some good local daytrips to be had close by and the
coast is about 30 minutes drive away. June 2011. “Paradise in Le Quillio”
| | If you would like to have a 5-star
holiday in Brittany, this is your place. The house is amazing, pool is great. We, 4 adults and 5 teenagers, stayed there one
week and we hadn´t got any negative comments of this lovely house. The village itself it´s really small, but there
are lot´s of nice, old towns nearby. Although there were 9 people staying, the house is big in enough that you could
found a quiet place, if needed. It´s also really cozy place, the upstairs bedrooms are just like from one of Jane Austens
book! .Chirs and Sue have think of everything, for a rainy day there is a cupboard full of games and dvd:s in living room. July 2011. “They thought of everything” | | We had a wonderful holiday at Manoir
de Bolu, all ten of us comprising three generations. Particularly impressive (besides the sundry facilities) was the attention
to detail in providing those extra things which people forget to bring with them on holiday right down to spare toothbrushes,
sanitary towels, toilet roll, a cupboard full of games and puzzles (with all their component parts), a veritable treasure
trove of a toy box for the littler ones with working toys which had batteries that worked in them. The open barn games area,
provided a great hanging out spot for the older ones and very friendly and unobtrusive hosts. Amazingly comfortable beds!.Highly
recommended for those who want to spend time in semi-rural France with enough places of interest to visit within easy reach
and perfect for larger groups. August 2011. I almost don't want to tell
you how great this place is as I would love to keep this hidden gem all to myself but that would be a great disservice to
the hard working owners, Chris and Sue. They have beautifully restored and decorated this property to a high standard. It
has every amenity you could ever want including travel cots, baby monitors, bottle sterilizers, wifi, ipod docking station,
children's toys, games and dvds, fully equipped kitchen, garden with heated pool, trampoline, climbing frame etc....We
stayed in September and the weather was gorgeous, hot and sunny, but I feel this would be a great property all year round.
We were a group of 6 adults and 3 children and there was something for everyone! We arrived to a lovely welcome pack of wine,
bread, milk, crepes and many other goodies. The owners live on site but they are extremely discrete and we felt that we had
the place entirely to ourselves. The village is beautiful with fantastic cycle routes and a beautiful walk up to the church
and fountain and for us was not too far away from local shops and amenities. A short drive away is the lake but travel further
afield to Binic on the coast to collect shells. None of us wanted to leave and are hoping to return soon. The only downside
is that I am obviously not the only one who feels this way as much of the term time holidays are already booked up for next
year!
“We knew from
all the information on the website this was going to be a fabulous place and we were not disappointed. Everything was spotlessly
clean, the house was beautiful, the pool warm, the garden lovely, the play area great, the toy’s plentiful. Probably
better than being at home. You as our hosts were brilliant, there but not there! Thank you for everything” Jan, Rhys, Mike, Fliss, Lee, Millie, Vicki, Les, Lucy –

“ What a special place!
We came here just the 4 of us and it was fab. Our 16 month old had hours of fun with the toy pushchair, whilst my 9 year old
had more space to run around in and play games than he could ever of imagined. Everything is here you could wish for on holiday.
My son loved the pool. Chris and Sue are lovely!!! very helpful. They have done a brilliant job here and we wish them every
success. My husband is sad to be leaving, we are all sad to be leaving” Jane, Richard, Rupert

manner made them the perfect hosts.” All the very best Andy, Caroline, Megan, Ruaridh and
Robbie - July 2009.
“What
a fantastic place! We have had such a wonderful week in your lovely house. You have thought of everything to make our stay
relaxed and happy, beautiful garden and pool, comfortable beds and well equipped kitchen. The children loved the garden and
toys and toy box in the dining room, such an assortment, everything they could want.” Sue,
Stephen, Shelia, Dave Holley Ava and Gill - July 2009.
“The ten of us ranging in age from 2 1/2 – 77 years have had a wonderful week in the glorious Manor.
Everything you could possibly want or need is here, and the beds are blissfully comfortable. All the toys and occupations
on site kept the five children very happy. Of course the lovely swimming pool was a great favourite, and the bicycles catered
for all our ages. Your kitchen we thought was a dream, and we loved the décor and furnishings you have done, keeping
the French traditions. The welcoming provisions were a lovely touch which we much appreciated. Must mention your amazing
wildflower meadow which was perfection. All agree that Sue and Chris are quite exceptional in what they have achieved here
Good luck for the future.” Kirsty, Bruce, Fiona, Ella, Katy and Jack - July 2009.
“ From the New Zealand contingent. Thank you Chris and Sue.
We are glad that you spent 3 years locating the ideal home away from home, ‘Manoir de Bolu’ is certainly worth
the wait!, we enjoyed the friendliness of the locals. With the children we found a particular appreciation for the park, the
grounds the play equipment and of coarse the pool, nicely heated we might add. In all a memorable holiday and quite unlike
anything we have experienced in New Zealand. " Taff, Tia, Rose and Harry Bennett – July
2009.
“I don’t want to leave!
It’s been the most wonderful holiday. The house feels so welcoming with the most marvellous decorative touches everywhere.
Every cupboard held something exciting. Children were particularly well catered for. I loved the outside area to. So thoughtfully
set out depending on whether one feels energetic or not. I would absolutely love to come back.” Pat
August - 2009.
“I can see why the
swallows fly thousands of miles across the world to get here. It’s a wonderful place.” Stuart
- August 2009
“What a wonderful
place for a group of friends. Places to gather and lots of quiet spots to sit for a chat or to read.” Brilliant. Grace - August 2009.
