Description

"La Renarde" is a Vintage & Cosy caravan from 1979 installed on a 1 hectare heart shaped plot.
It has been fitted out to sleep in a real bed.
Outside, a living room allows you to cook like in the campsite : stove and dishes provided.
In the sanitary block: - water supply - basin, fridge.
For a unique experience & a step towards your bucolic wishes:
Lights, water curves, fauna, flora, trees, culture, break, read ....
Quiet & invigorating place for quiet & active people, curious & nature lovers.
Swimming, lazing around, visiting, playing, discussing, learning, exchanging, gardening, experimenting with vegetable cooking, many possibilities....
Surrounded by greenery, the culture of the vegetable garden (in squares), according to the principles of permaculture, can be revealed to you, as well as courses of vegetable cooking (on reservation).
An art of living that we will be happy to share with you.
The swimming pool, heated thanks to the bubble cover, reaches all summer between 25 and 28 °, will offer you all the sensations of swimming in the middle of the trees.
Wild, not wild, it is according to: 2 cats, 1 dog, 2 hens, ducks Indian runners, full of birds, fish, frogs, squirrels, deer, owls & rustling
The life of a unique peri-urban space that we have great pleasure in opening to you.

The setting

Our eco-place* often benefits from beautiful lights, from dawn to dusk, which sweep the trees, the very present water points, the interstices to be seized.
During the day, the sun invites you to contemplate the universe of the pond on the edge of which the caravan is installed.
To swimming in the pool, lazing on the terrace, under a tree or in a corner that inspires you.
(When the wind is south, we can hear the sound of the road from Rennes to Brest, which is non-existent most of the time between April and October).

The spots

"La Renarde" has been fitted out to take a time of disconnection, to settle down outside, but not far, from the noise of the World.
For more comfort, electricity & heating are installed. You will sleep in a real bed: bed base and mattress and will have a dining area inside and outside.
It has an outdoor living room designed with recycled materials and furniture.
An atmosphere to be lived under a beautiful oak tree which spreads its antlers.
Please note that for logistical and availability reasons - the time to clean the caravan - we rent for a minimum of 2 nights and that sheets and towels are not provided (except for the fitted sheet for the mattress and pillowcases).
There is a distance of about 100 m or 150 steps between the place where you will park your car and the caravan, the dry toilets.
A wheelbarrow is at your disposal to bring your things. If we are present we can also do a "room service" with pleasure :-)

The "Petit Renard" is autonomous in water.
This one is recycled on the spot, we thus avoid the "detergents" and privilege the natural products + selective sorting.
A compost is at your disposal.
Our ambition is to share "Le Petit Renard", an eco-place* where we will be able to live and transmit in harmony with nature. To give it back its place.
As well as to the Human being, notably by meeting you.
You are not customers but guests that we welcome.
"Le Petit Renard" is a *space of experimentation: to cultivate, to feed, to exchange, to enrich oneself, to test inspiring work rhythms (telecommuting).... to act in our environment, differently.
All the money you pay is reinvested in the purchase of trees, nesting boxes, flowering fallows, etc.
By coming you work for the safeguard of the nature.
Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate your pet in this small enclosed space.

We do our best to make sure that the place is clean to welcome you.
If by any chance you find that there is something wrong with the cleanliness of the place, please let us know directly so that we can act as soon as possible.
So that we do not penalize each other and create frustrations on these matters.

We are at your disposal to discuss any comments you may have.
To allow us to progress thanks to you!

We are attentive to your wish to stay with us and will bring any positive element to contribute to it.

  • This little cocoon of nature is so pleasant. We were passing through for two days and had planned to visit Rennes. In the end, we stayed to enjoy nature and the peace and quiet. Isa is very welcoming and available to give advice on going out and shopping in the area. The two cats and the dog are adorable. In short, our only regret: having to leave. We just hope to be able to come back for longer, perhaps this time to visit Rennes. Or just to stay in this little haven of peace, once again.

  • very pleasant place with a very sharing host, we'll be back.

  • Very nice place! Thank you for this weekend! We will come back !

  • Perfect, the place is wild and relaxing! The caravan is comfortable. Very warm welcome. Thank you, we had a great stay.

  • Idyllic and relaxing stay!

  • The setting is superb!
    I felt at home as soon as I arrived in this preserved environment inhabited by a present fauna.
    Place of reconnection with life in all simplicity.
    It is with a great pleasure to return to this place.
    Thank you very much to Isabelle and Ulysse the doggie!

  • We had a very good stay in an idyllic and relaxing setting. Isabelle and Yannig have planned everything for our welcome and our comfort, the caravan is very well equipped and their land is very preserved. We will come back without hesitation and we wish them to realize their projects!

  • A real bubble of softness in this natural setting... You will be lulled by the lapping of the water, the carp jumping from the pond next to the caravan, the rustling of the leaves of the surrounding trees.

    And what a magic in the morning, with this light mist that invites to dream from the first glance through the different windows of the caravan, so many pictures that can be appreciated night and day.

    Thanks to Isabelle and Yannig to have made this nice escape possible and so pleasant! :)

  • What a beautiful adventure during these few days spent in an idyllic setting, in the company of warm and welcoming people. A privileged relationship with Isabelle, rich discussions and exchanges, which will continue in the future. A huge thank you for this moment of peace and serenity!
