Owner Saint-Jacob - Les FougerêtsOur guest house is located in the countryside of southern Brittany, Villages of character such as Gacilly, Rochefort en terre, Malestroit, the forest of Broceliande, at the heart of legend around Paimpont. This short overview would be incomplete if we did not mention le pays de Redon, marshes surround the city of Redon, this city houses a marina which gives it a certain charm, the existence of this place is understandable by the river la Vilaine which allows the boats to get  the sea via Arzal dam.
