The Experience
You’re greeted by the owners and shown around – this is a very personal experience and will suit sociable souls. You’ll find home-baked biscuits and small seating areas in your themed bedroom – one on the ground, the others on the second or third floor, all with a sparkling shower room. The front entrance is a shared sitting room with sofas and armchairs – here you’ll find the honesty bar with local beer and fruit juice. There’s a sheltered outdoor area too for games of ping-pong.
Breakfast is a feast: bread and pastries from the nearby bakery, local organic jams, homemade organic yogurts and crêpes, Breton granola, hams and salamis, coffee from Maison Reux, delicious chocolat chaud. You can order dinner (outside of the summer months) on nights when the village restaurant is closed.
The garden is a gorgeous place to be on a sunny day with a big lawn, picnic benches, mature trees and a good-sized pool for proper lengths.

We had a wonderful stay at La Recreation in the 2 bedroom apartment, as a family of 4. The owners, Youmna and Anthony, were extremely helpful and friendly. The accommodation was spotless and beautifully decorated and themed as well as practical and comfortable. We enjoyed using the pool which was warm and clean. The town of Chatelaudren is very beautiful and has some nice restaurants and little shops, and is a great base for exploring the area. We would love to return in the future!

Simply the best! The website indicated that we would be staying in a property of character, tradition and interest. On arrival we discovered there was so much more on offer. Anthony and Youmna are excellent hosts with an eye for detail that added a "Wow factor". The room, and entire property, was immaculately clean and very comfortable. The bedding and towels epitomised quality. Breakfast was a combination of home cooked food and local organic produce. We hope to go back for a longer stay in the future. Excellent in every respect!

The moment you meet Youmna and Anthony you'll want to stay for longer than you planned: they've created a space that balances nostalgic touches with high-quality modern comforts, so it's stylish yet homely and inviting. Swap stories with other guests over breakfast, explore the coast or stroll to the village: this former school gets top marks for its convivial comfort that you're sure to cherish.

Location
The neighbourhood
You're in the heart of the village which has a bar, bakery, supermarket and banks as well as a restaurant – not always open so do check. There's a lake nearby which you can walk around, some lovely local coastal towns like Binic, super for a wander around the harbour and a lunch overlooking the water. You're halfway between Rennes and Brest, also Roscoff and Saint-Malo ferry ports.
Local points of interest from Youmna & Anthony Rakotondrazaka
- Just 15 minutes from the sea, explore the hiking trails (including the famous GR34) overlooking the sea and the spectacular highest cliffs (Plouha) of the Côtes d'Armor.
- The Island of Bréhat offers itself to you for a day of total change of scenery surrounded by exotic flora and truly unique hiking trails in Brittany. A day not to be missed!
- Go back in time to visit the corsair city of Saint-Malo, the very British Dinard and its 400 listed houses, the medieval city of Dinan and last but not least one of the most beautiful wonders of the world, the Mont-Saint-Michel. Ready for an amazing day!
- Let yourself be surprised by the extraordinary rocks of the pink granite coast (Perros Guirec - Ploumanac'h), a true wonder of changing colours. Then embark towards the Archipelago of the 7 islands, the largest ornithological reserve in France.
- Discover Châtelaudren, our small town of character with its listed 14th-century chapel, the cultural and artistic centre of Petit Echo de la Mode. Lovers of art and history, discover other small towns of character such as Tréguier, Moncontour or Pontrieux.
- Enjoy the most beautiful natural sand beaches 15 minutes from the house. Treat yourself to a perfect moment of relaxation after a beautiful day of hiking in our heated indoor swimming pool. For gourmet pleasures, we provide a real concierge service.

Introducing
Youmna & Anthony Rakotondrazaka
Youmna and Anthony both worked in luxury hotels for many years. They are very warm and genuinely care about looking after their guests, having taken everything they've jointly learned about the industry and applied it to their own B&B. You'll be well looked after and well fed.
Everything at La Recreation is delivered with thought and style. Anthony and Youmna welcomed us so warmly, provided helpful ideas on how to make the best of our three days stay and have created comfortable and stylish accommodation where every detail delights.
