Overview

This B&B offers guest rooms set in the various stone houses dating from the 18th century, which are situated around the central courtyard.

They provide an independent space while guests can still benefit from the use of the communal kitchen, at an additional cost. A continental breakfast with local products and homemade cakes is served every morning in the renovated barn. Barbecue facilities are available at the property. A lot of restaurants, shops and the famous biscuit factory can be found in the centre of Pont-Aven.

“Romantic and pleasant stay in beautiful surroundings”
Le Chatel is an incredibly romantic place. The rooms are on an old family farm with a long and very interesting history. The hosts are so caring, helpful, excited and friendly. The breakfasts and dinners are from their crops and homemade products, and they also make their own cidre and lambig. This must sound like a paid advertisement, but the truth is I enjoyed the time there so much, took many photos and wish to come back again. Greetings and thanks to France and Yann!

“A pleasant, relaxing stay with lovely hosts.”
We had a lovely stay at Le Chatel, France and Yann are excellent hosts. Breakfast was good, coffee / tea were available during the day (you need your own milk - there is a fridge for guests to use). The surroundings are very pleasant, and very relaxing. France and Yann were very helpful in providing information about the area. Pont Aven is a pretty town with a range of eateries, nice little bakers if you simply want a sandwich. With the restaurants worth booking ahead in high season. Lots of tourist shops / galleries. Interesting museum. Great walks in the area, particularly the paths along side the Aven and Belon rivers. Tha accommodation is best suited for travellers with transport (car/bike) as it is located just beyond the perimeter of Pont Aven. Around a 20 min walk in, first short stretch is on a grass verge of a main road - busy in the day, little traffic at night. Rest of the walk is fine, have a torch, street lights go out relatively early!

“Really was a ‘home from home’”
Great location and lovely hosts who go out of their way to make your stay special. Lots of tips on good local walks. We really valued the use of the communal space to cook some simple dishes of our own and play cards and drink coffee! Really was a home from home.
