Lovely St Goustan
We had a brilliant week with excellent weather at Michel's lovely house. It was well furnished and well equipped, the only things that were missing in the kitchen were egg cups for our boiled eggs! Previous tenants had left lots of useful things such as filters for the coffee machine. We struggled with the washing machine so some instructions in English would be helpful and we found the pillows too soft. I think they need replacing. The house has a lot of stairs but we knew that when we booked the house. The outside space was smaller than expected but big enough for us to take a couple of chairs outside to read and have a drink. We loved the fact that we could walk to the restaurants in the port in the evening and their was sufficient choice for a weeks stay. On the Monday we walked into the town of Auray went to the market and had lunch. It is a very steep hill to climb to get to the town but the market was well worth the effort. There are lots of very nice places to visit within easy driving distance of St Goustan We would happily stay at this cottage again

Sweet stay in Sweet Auray
It doesn’t get more charming than Auray Port de St Goustan. Michel’s house is well situated near restaurants and shops yet still quiet and private. It’s comfortable, nicely furnished and has a well equipped kitchen. Thanks Michel, great stay.

Ideal spot in a lovely town
Great house with plenty of space in the perfect location. -literally within a couple of minutes of restaurants etc. There were two of us but It would also suit 2 couples as the bedrooms offer privacy from each other. The host Michel was extremely helpful, offering advice and answering our questions. The only slight downside was that the small outside space wasn’t very useable - but the conservatory was nice to sit in for breakfast and drinks in the evening. We would recommend it!

Wonderful location
The location of the cottage was superb being set in a beautiful flower lined, semi pedestrianised cobbled street within a very few metres of the waterfront, harbour and restaurants. Michel met us close by on the day we checked in to help us negotiate access to the port roads and the barriers at the end of the road. He also showed us around the property personally, showed us how to use all of the equipment and gave us advice about parking. Michel also appeared within 15 minutes to help us when we were accidentally locked out of the cottage. We had a really lovely break here and would recommend it to others.

Harbour house
Charming old stone cottage near the harbour at Port Gouston close to bars and restaurants. Fully renovated and very well equipped for a really relaxing holiday. Our host Michael was easily reachable, was very helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cottage in a very quiet pretty street.

Very nice, traditional property in the heart of St.Goustain.
We enjoyed 2 very pleasant weeks in Michel's lovely cottage. The area of Brittany is surrounded by places to visit within 30 minutes drive and Auray is a lovely area with the house conveniently situated by the picturesque harbour of St.Goustain with many restaurants and bars within walking distance. The property has 2 bathrooms which we found very convenient as we travelled as 2 couples with 2 dogs. The kitchen is very well- equipped and the dining area is nice. The only things which would have improved the stay would have been wi-fi , a garden and air-conditioning as it was very hot when we were there ( the temperature was over 30C most days!). Michel lives just by the property and was a very amenable and charming host who was able to speak to us in English which was very helpful.

Très Bon accueil
Très bon accueil mais cette vieille demoiselle demanderait plus de nettoyage à fond. Il faut signaler la télé si petite qu’elle doit dater de l’époque. Sinon beaucoup d’espace et endroit agréable.

Une belle semaine en Bretagne
Nous avons passé une très bonne semaine dans la maison de Michel. Elle est bien placée, très au calme dans une rue piétonne et à proximité immédiate du très joli port de Saint Goustan, idéal pour se promener ou sortir le soir. Nous nous sommes garés facilement à proximité. La maison est agréable et bien équipée et l'on se sent vite comme chez soi ! Un radiateur d'appoint dans la véranda serait bienvenu pour les repas lorsqu'il fait frais dehors (fin octobre pour nous), mais nous avons bien profité de sa luminosité. L'accès à la chambre avec 2 petits lits se fait par la véranda, les 2 chambres sont assez éloignées, c'était un avantage pour nous (4 adultes) mais ça pourrait être plus compliqué avec de jeunes enfants. Michel nous a accueilli très gentiment et nous a donné tous les renseignements nécessaires et de très bons conseils d'itinéraires de découvertes de la région. Merci pour les gentilles attentions à notre arrivée ! Nous recommandons cette location !
