Nigel’s property is wonderful, excellent location in Auray, very close to shops and restaurants, the home has a cool, funky vibe and a wonderful outdoor garden, we really enjoyed ourselves. Nigel is an extremely attentive host and went over and above to ensure we had a good stay, highly recommended.

We loved staying at the manor house in Auray! It is a charming property, spacious, in the perfect location for the exploration of the Morbihan. We were mere steps away from convenient markets, cafes and restaurants, and we were well situated to visit Carnac, Rochefort-en-Terre, Pont-Aven and many other fascinating spots. Thank you for your hospitality!

We really enjoyed our stay at Le Manoir. This is a lovely property and much thought has gone into the decoration and furnishing. The location was very central with short walks down to the port and up to the centre, with loads of bars and restaurants. Nigel was an excellent host, responding quickly to any queries we had, even though he was away at the time. Whilst you have to park in the town car parks, this was not a problem and you can park outside Le Manoir to load/offload. We also had our two Westies, who enjoyed all their walks. Nearly all beaches have dog bans but we did find a couple that were OK. If you have accessibility concerns, you should note that there are around 26 steps to get up to the property but everything is on the same level after that including the garden. Also, if you are a large party , be aware that there is only a small oven and freezer compartment. As there were only two of us this was fine. Thanks again Nigel for a great holiday.

We had a great week in the manoir. Very roomy, comfortable, and elegant with close proximity to everything. We enjoyed the port at Saint Goustain and Nigel provided tips on places to visit and eat. We appreciated the excellent detailed instructions for using the house.

Nigel was extremely organised in sending helpful information before our arrival. He was mindful of our privacy but friendly and informative during our stay. Excellent all round. It felt like a very French experience staying at Le Manoir.

Plenty of space and a central location which suited us all (family plus our dog) extremely well.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful and well equipped apartment! The layout and bedrooms were great for a family. Everything we needed was provided for. The owners always replied promptly and were super helpful! Garden was delightful and the location superb! Would definitely come back!

as described

The apartment in Auray is perfectly situated in the old picturesque quarter of Auray, a short walk from the lovely port of St Goustan and its lively bars and restaurants as well as the centre of Auray with its shops and market. In addition there were lovely walks available long the river. Auray is perfectly located for exploring Brittany and in the time we were there we visited Brest, St Malo (which is highly recommended) and the town of Vannes which is lovely to walk around. We travelled to Auray by car from Caen and found the apartment very easily. Whilst there are a few stairs to climb to reach the apartment once in, it is lovely. It is very light and spacious, with very large bedrooms and sitting area, and the garden was great for our dog. The whole holiday was extremely dog friendly and we were able to take our terrier into all the restaurants and shops we visited - apart from the supermarkets. Nigel was an extremely helpful host, and responded to all our enquiries promptly and informatively. Couldn't ask for a more!

Our family had a very pleasant stay here. This was our first time in Auray and we loved the place. The town has tons of character and lots of good individual places to shop, drink and eat. It was a really good place to be based in order to explore this part of France. Very nice property in the heart of Auray. Spacious and comfortable. Ideal stay in Auray!.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was very spacious and comfortable. We found the bedrooms to be very comfortable and spacious. We used the dining room and the kitchen often for enjoying our breakfast and lunch that we picked up in town. We also liked the games and pamphlets that we in the house. We made use of the walking trails along the river to get some exercise in. We really liked the all the creperies and shops in Auray and St Gustan. We ate dinner out most evenings. We enjoyed the Monday market and the daily market in town. We got some wonderful seafood, fruits and vegetables. We made some nice day trips to Quiberon and Belle l'ile and to the nearby beaches. We would certainly go again and would stay here. Our hosts were very nice and helpful before and during our stay.

A very clever partion of the manor house has left a very comfortable and spacious gite of the middle floor. With ample room, and more besides for a family of 5 and a mini daschund. Beautifully decorated in a style befitting the high corniced ceilings and ornate fireplaces. The clever design extends to the elevated garden to which you can walk out directly from the gite, and gives a wonderful space to enjoy the evening sun and a barbecue. Located in a pedestrianised touristic street, the gite is close many restaurants and bars both in Auray and St Goustan port across the cobbled bridge at the foot of Rue du Chateau. The walks around the town, particularly through the woods and along Quai Martin are excellent, and the square in St Goustan into which the chairs and tables spill is a lively sun trap for an afternoon glass of the local cider and a spot of people watching. Parking is not at the property but is not inconvenient at a short few minutes walk into the town. It might be a little confusing to the initiated at first, but was clarified from the outset by Nigel, the gracious hose who lives nearby. He also provided a raft of materials for the attractions and boat rides around the Bay of Morbihan, all within short car journeys from Auray. All in all a fantastic and beautiful property in a fantastic and beautiful town.

Could you please adjust the review I wrote a couple of days ago for this property making five star rather than a four star review. Thank you

Wow! What an experience. Even before we booked, we knew we would enjoy our stay as the responses to our questions were so helpful and charming. Our first impressions were not wrong. The Manoir was just as it seems on the website - historic, full of character with amazing furnishings. It was also, however, comfortable and unpretentious and well equipped for a family holiday, a charming mixture that puts you at ease and helps you to relax. Even our teenage sons were impressed, no mean feat. The location is superb, with the best of Brittany on the doorstep: whether you like to eat out, visit historic sites, explore medieval towns and cities, cycle, walk,shop or sit on a beach, Auray is a great base to do it and the Manoir has an enviable spot in the town. We loved the access to both the town and the port and even leaning out of the window and watching the world go by was a pleasure on this charming pedestrian street filled with galleries. A true slice of French life. The outside space was a real bonus, despite the weather being mixed we managed a meal or two outdoors and a read in the garden and when it rained we were almost glad of the excuse to set the grand table in the dining room and eat, drink, play cards. The only thing we would change would be the length of the stay. We only had 4 nights and there was so much to do in the area, and so many restaurants to try that we had hardly started when it was time to leave. We would love to return. We recommend visiting Vannes, going on a cruise round the Golfe du Morbihan and marvelling at the megaliths near Carnac. Our host was utterly charming and we would not hesitate to return. We recommend the Manoir most highly.

We loved the Manoir du Belvedere and would certainly like to stay again. The apartment is historic but nice, clean and airy with modern facilities. The rooms are large and and nicely furnished and there's a patio and small secluded garden if you want to eat outside. The location is great: one hundred metres up the road and you're in Auray's market place, so fresh food is always available, and a hundred metres down and you're in the delightful port of St Goustan with its quaint streets and riverside restaurants. We also enjoyed a good river-side walk down the Loch to Bono. More generally it's easy to get to other places in south Morbihan such as the historic town of Vannes, beaches (Lochmariaquer's our favourite) and prehistoric sites, such as Carnac. Though you can drive to the door for dropping off /picking up, we found it easiest to leave the car at Place du Loch where parking is free 24hrs – especially since that's the way to the coast. Lot's of useful information in the house and the good hosts – there is you need them and not if you don't. We spent a very pleasant lunchtime being entertained in their garden – so thank you Nigel and Hoa for an enjoyable stay. Alastair Baillie & Family.

We had a great holiday in Auray. The house is very cosy and big enough for a family with children. Very lovely decorations with authentic details. We had great dinners in the dining room and enjoyed the cosy street very full of galleries and very close to all kinds of restaurants. I could recommend this place to anyone who wants to feel at home in Auray. We will definitely return.

Great apartment with an abundance of character in a fantastic location in picturesque Auray.. This is a very large apartment with plenty of space for the 5 of us to get lost in! Nigel and Hoa were very welcoming and responsive without being intrusive. Despite being central and on a pedestrianised street, the parking was straight-forward. Auray is a great base for exploring the Gulf de Mordihan, the islands, the Quiberon Pensinsula and the beaches around Carnac. Great market on Monday. I would highly recommend.

The Manoir du Belvedere is a lovely historic house in a charming pedestrian street in the heart of Auray. The apartment is huge and tastefully decorated and well equipped with own patio and garden. The owners were very kind and supportive and assisted with any inquiry. Shops, restaurants, supermarkets and the harbour St Goustan are only a couple of steps away and one can find 24-hour free parking spaces also within a short walking distance from the apartment. We absolutely recommend the Manoir and hope to come back soon.

This apartment is in a fantastic location in Auray. It is close to shops, restaurants and the local market. The apartment is a lovely building and has a nice courtyard and small garden. Be aware that the double beds are very small and really only suitable for one person. The kitchen has limited crockery and a small bench top oven so if you are catering for 6-8 it could be difficult. The owner is very friendly and helpful and took on board our comments about the beds, the small and non absorbent towels, stained duvet and poor quality linen. These things may not concern all travellers however it is small touches like this that can make accommodation really, really good. If the bedding and linen is improved I would recommend this place (more crockery would be good also). I have given this 3 stars if the above changes take place.
