    Description

    Hello everyone !
    With Damien and our two children (Aïda aged 7 and Arwen who is now 5), we acquired a farmhouse with 6 hectares of land in the Côte d'Armor in Brittany.

    Damien has created an activity of organic sourdough bread cooked over a wood fire and for my part, I am developing a market gardening activity on a small surface (about 500m2).

    We have chickens, 2 goats and 2 sheep , 2 cats and 1 dog.

    Before landing, we have each traveled well on our side: India, Vietnam, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and we want to continue thanks to your presence.
    We can accommodate you in a small caravan or in a guest room.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We live in the Côtes d'Armor, near Guingamp and 20 minutes from the Goélo coast (Binic, st Quai Portrieux). We would be very happy to make discover this territory between land and sea to the greatest number as well as to present the surrounding cultural assets. We are lucky to live in a region with a strong associative fabric where many events are organized throughout the year.

    We want our place to be open, which is why we regularly organize shows, concerts, in the garden and at home.
