Gîtes Goas Teriot · Locarn, Brittany
A Breton stone house with a heated private pool, on the edge of a quiet valley in the green heart of Brittany.
Book direct with the owner: no booking fees
Le Granit is a detached Breton longère in the hamlet of Goas Teriot, four kilometres from the village of Locarn. White walls, granite door arches and a slate roof: the house is built the way farmhouses have been built here for centuries. It sits on the edge of a valley, with open views over fields and woodland and no direct neighbours.
Inside you'll find exposed beams, tiled floors and a granite fireplace with a wood burner. Outside there's a heated private pool sheltered by hedges and trees, a large garden and a terrace for long summer evenings. The moors and granite boulders of the Landes de Locarn begin a few kilometres away. It's a place to slow down: walk, swim, and end the day by the fire.
50 m² of water just for your group, sheltered by hedges, with sun loungers and an outdoor shower.
A wood burner in the beamed living room, for cosy evenings in every season.

Goas Teriot lies in the Argoat, the green inland Brittany of woods and moors, between the Monts d'Arrée and the Lac de Guerlédan. Nature starts at the doorstep, the Vieilles Charrues festival is half an hour away, and the north coast is about an hour's drive.

We really liked the cottage, beautifully set in nature among the cornfields. The pool is right next to the house, nicely sheltered by bushes and trees. It was wonderfully heated and lovely to swim in! […] Contact with the owner was really pleasant: he is very helpful, and the towel and bed-linen service is top! We'd love to come back.

We found peace in this house. After day trips it soon felt like coming home. A cosy, neat house in quiet, green surroundings. The pool is nicely heated, and the gas barbecue is very handy.
