What our guests say

Linda, Justin, Eli & Benjamin

We have had a lovely time here - the location is amazing - the view of the river from our bedroom is stunning! Jeanine was very helpful and enthusiastic - thank you! We'll be back soon!

Angela, Anthony & Katie

We have had a wonderful holiday here in La Garenne. Cottage is beautiful. We really appreciated Jeanine's welcome & friendliness. Enjoyed exploring Brittany for the first time, especially enjoyed Auray market, Rochefort en Terre, & Carnac. Have had good weather and Katie has enjoyed playing…

The Christiantes

This is our first trip to Brittany and it has exceeded all our expectations. La Garenne is a wonderful 'home from home' and the children have loved playing in the pool and the gardens, and they have made some lovely friends with the other families…

Maggie, Nigel, Alex & Charlie

What a most beautiful and restful place for our holiday - the phrase "location, location, location" certainly sprang to mind. Le Pessoir is a beautiful cottage and very quaint. Jeanine's sunny disposition is a breath of fresh air - very helpful and hardworking. Merci beaucoup.

Rachel, Chris, Sam & Ethan

We had a fantastic family holiday. The houses and setting are beautiful. The boys loved the pool and the beaches. There's lots to see and do in Brittany, so I'm sure we will be back. Jeanine was a fantastic host and saw to all our…

Kathryn

"I just wanted to say a huge thank you for such a lovely weekend in your cottage last weekend.  We have stayed in lots of self catering accommodation in the Lake District and other areas, and can honestly say that it was one of, if…

David & Lynn

Just a quick note to say that we were all very impressed with the quality of Bridge End Farmhouse last weekend.  The facilities were some of the best we've experienced.  We had a great weekend of walking and celebrating my wife's 40th birthday. We hope…

The Hawley family

"We have enjoyed a wonderful stay in 'Le Pressoir'.  Perfect in every way (apart from too short a stay!).  This is a truly special place, every time you drive up from the main road you gasp at the beauty of La Garenne. We will be…

Marco

"What more can I add La Garenne is a slice of heaven, and Jeanine an angel."

The Taylor family

"We have had a wonderful holiday - sunshine every day.  This is a beautiful spot to stay, so peaceful.  The medieval festival in Hennebont was fascinating.  The children have had a super time here playing in the pool and in the field, making new friends,…

The Walters

"Thanks so much for a fantastic and relaxing stay.  Beautiful surroundings, weather, and great company - lovely to get to know some great neighbours.  Perfect!"

Neil, Clare & Laura

"We have had a terrific two weeks at La Garenne.  Le Pressoir cottage is lovely and has everything you need.  It's very private too for sunbathing and eating outdoors.  Couldn't wish for a better setting beside the river - really peaceful and the weather has…

The Chapmans

"This is the only location that I have been to that looks just like the brochure! Very relaxing, we will be back next year."

Abi (age 9)

"I really enjoyed coming to La Garenne. It was great, everyone was so friendly and I had a brilliant time playing in the pool. 10/10! I would come here again. Thank you Jeanine for being so helpful."

Helen

"Really picturesque cottages, well equipped and comfortable, with the added bonus of beautiful walks by the river. We enjoyed our stay at Le Fournil, the cottages are really pretty and set in lovely grounds. Everything was provided and the cottages are well looked after by…

Rosie

Family holiday - beautiful setting, warm welcome, plenty of space and equipment supplied for road weary extended family of seven, including 18 month twins. Cots, stairgates etc all provided. Plenty of local information, beaches, markets etc. Nothing was too much trouble for Jeanine who looks…

Charlie

"Away from the crowds in the honey-spots of the Lake District, the village of Boot is like a scene from a movie, a small row of cottages with a pub and a post office, an old mill - and Select Cottages' farmhouse and other cottages.…

Ann-Charlotte, Stockholm

I had two glorious weeks at Whillan Beck cottage, which is every bit as pretty as the pictures show. The spacious back garden, with the beck running along its edge, was a pleasant surprise, perfect for relaxing after a day on the fells and to…

Jonathan

“We’ve all enjoyed a fabulous two weeks here at La Garenne. The weather has been fantastic and we’ve made good use of all the facilities especially the pool. We brought our bikes and have enjoyed Le Blavet trail. Spent several days at the beach near…

Darren

“La Garenne, beautiful and very peaceful. The cottage well equipped and very charming. Jeanine was very friendly and gave us a great welcome. I feel very relaxed after this holiday and we could well be returning in the near future.”

Brian & Alice

“Such a pleasure to stay in a holiday cottage that is even nicer in real life than the ad makes out! The place, location, atmosphere and company were wonderful, and far too much to see and do within an hour’s drive to possibly fit into…

Charlotte

“A really superb “chocolate box” cottage development. We were really taken aback at how beautiful the local walks were. Ideal area for pram walks with the towpath at the bottom of the garden. Far too much to explore – we only scraped the surface in…

Fran

“A truly relaxing holiday, the cycle path was a wonderful bonus for us because we brought our bikes not knowing what to expect. We enjoyed many outings along the river bank and really found the beauty of the surroundings overwhelming. A beautiful setting, La Garenne…

The Philips

“We arrived to a very warm welcome by Jeanine. We found the activities close by wonderful. We hired bikes which were delivered and collected with friendly service. The activity park at Camors is to be recommended. The walks by the river are simply unique and…

Excellent & Restorative Stay

I think this is our 7th trip up to Boot and Bridge End. That should tell you something. Nothing to complain about, everything to praise. Location, property, customer service and the pubs so conveniently positioned. Yes we will be back!
