Guest House Izko

Japan invites itself to Brittany on the coastal path, just a short walk from the River Aven. Recharge your batteries with a stay in this fisherman's cottage designed by a Japanese calligrapher. Situated in a peaceful green setting between Pont Aven and Port Manech. From the back of the garden, follow the coastal path along the river Aven and be transported by the impressionist landscapes. The soft futons and silence, barely disturbed by the owls, will ensure you a refreshing night's sleep. The space Situated 300m from the port of kerdruc on the river Aven, at the end of a cul-de-sac in a small hamlet full of character, this former fisherman's cottage was completely renovated in 2022 by a Japanese calligrapher, using only sustainable materials and sourcing as much as possible from short circuits. The accommodation is 55m2 on 2 levels. Particular care is taken with the bedding. 2 thick Japanese futons rest on 6m2 of tatami mats, ensuring a peaceful night's sleep. The garden is cultivated using permaculture methods, the site is surrounded by woodland and the coastal path passes right in front of the property. By car, you are 8 minutes from the magnificent beach of Port Manech, 10 minutes from Pont Aven with its restaurants, museum and galleries and 7 minutes from the market town of Nevez with its shops. Guest access Apart from a storeroom and a few private cupboards, all the accommodation is accessible. Other things to note The home features works of Japanese Caligraphy by Izumi Kohama. If you are interested, an introductory course is available (price and availability to be agreed on arrival). A pair of bicycles is available free of charge.
