Guemene Penfao is on the river Don and there is something for everyone; wonderful walks through forests, ancient chateaux, chapels and churches to visit, water sports of every kind, Karting, micralights, aquajets and a lake with a safe beach area in nearby Plesse, 4 riding stables to suit all abilities, and there many restaurants. Les quatre cles is about a 3 minute drive from the town centre or easily reached on foot along a riverside path in about 15 minutes. Or how about spending a day in Paris, under 3 hours away direct from Redon Station which is only a 15 minute drive away. Rennes, Nantes, Vannes are all within easy reach for day trips. A 45 minute drive leads you to the banks of the river Loire, deep in the heart of the wine growing area around Nantes. Kilometres of sign posted scenic drives around the wine growing areas of Muscadet and Anjou, explore the vineyards whose owners extend a friendly welcome and advice whilst inviting you to taste the wine at their local "caves". Discover the sumptuous Châteaux and ornamental gardens, glorious relics of France's regal past, situated in the vicinity of Angers and Saumur.

Take to the skies in a Micralight from nearby Plesse and see the region from a birds eye view or take a ride in a horse and cart and have a wonderful guided tour of Guemene Penfao. Go to Nantes and see their fantastic new attraction - a huge mechanical elephant you can ride on and a collection of superb weird and wonderful mechanical underwater creatures Jules Verne would be proud of. The newly restored castle is also a 'must see' and good for a whole day's fascinating entertainment. The huge plus in visiting French cities is that parking is easy, accessible and cheap - go for the underground variety and pay as little as €6 for the whole day - NCP take note! It's not so much a question of 'what shall we do on holiday?' as 'how will we manage to do everything we want to in the time?' - Solution - book 3 weeks and/or come back again next year. You'll still find plenty to do and see.

Rates are fully inclusive of all utilities, bedding, linen, towels (if requested) tea towels and a comprehensive supply of cleaning and other sundry goods such as loo rolls, bin bags, kitchen towels, detergent & fabric softener, washing up liquid as well as cooking & olive oils and condiments.

Les Quatre Cles is situated on a quiet country lane, surrounded on 3 sides by fields and a neighbour's (very quiet family) drive on the 4th. Our drive ends in a large parking bay on the right and the longere on the left, you can drive up to the door to unload your car. The play field is divided in half and the other side is my veggie plot and weather willing I hope to have surplus fresh organic veggies to sell to my guests.
