Living in the Channel Islands, originally La Treunais was a great place to spend weekends, half terms and longer holidays exploring Brittany, finding new eating places and planning the next renovation projects.
We still come for a few weeks each year, but now the main house is used for short term lets to couples and families who wish to explore Brittany.
We still love spending time here with family and friends whatever the season, and now that we have renovated the separate barn and pigsty in the grounds, we have been able to open up the main house to guests and have the occasional holiday ourselves at the same time.
Our visitors' book is full of lovely comments and advice for new explorers and it is clear that La Treunais has been a special place for many.
We still continue to add to the property albeit a slow labour of love.
In 2023 we added a new kitchen and table tennis room and in 2024 there will be a large new bedroom with mezzanine for parties of 6+
Over the 35 years of work, we have friends with many local builders, electricians, plumbers and carpenters who have helped us with our projects.
We have hugely enjoyed bringing this pretty farmstead gradually back to life.

La Treunais seemed too special a place not to save after the great storm of 1989 even without a roof and various walls!

Having been a working farm, the previous owners helped us plant the trees and apple orchard and gave us a present of the walnut tree that now bears fruit in October.

Being close to St. Malo makes it so easy for our ferry (weather permitting!) and the area offers something for everyone: beaches close by, Medieval villages, markets, horse riding, river walks, lakes with water-sports and indoor pool, golf and a wealth of restaurants throughout the region.

It really is an excellent location for exploring Brittany.
