ArchitectureThe 19th century farmhouse is made of solid stone and is located in a remote hamlet. It was in very bad shape when the hosts bought it. Their motivation was to fill the house with life again and to integrate the rural history of the building: The granite stones were carefully sanded, the joints were repaired with lime, the wooden beams could be preserved; and the garden and fields have been designed to reflect the agricultural origins of the place. The renovation took place with materials from Brittany. For example, the kitchen was designed and built in Brittany; the terracota tiles also come from the region. The beams of the hayloft for the construction of the yoga and meditation pavilion were reused. If the materials did not come from the immediate area, the quality and environmental friendliness were decisive factors.

SocialIt is important for the hosts to promote diversity and inclusion, along with fair working conditions and compensation. As an example, gardening and laundry are outsourced to a non-profit organization that employs people with disabilities and helps them reintegrate into society.

EnvironmentWhen the house was renovated ten years ago, one of the top priorities was to reuse rain and well water for gardening and toilets. Another important decision before La Vagabonde opened as a guest house was to avoid or at least drastically limit the use of cleaning products. A dry steam cleaner has been used since then. Guests will be emailed information about the property's sustainability efforts after booking.

Well-BeingActivities such as yoga, Pilates, Shiatsu and massages can be booked on request. In addition, host Annelise is about to complete her training as a mindfulness teacher. Guests will be able to start or end their day with guided meditations led by Annelise. With the sea and the long beaches of Kerhillio close by, all water activities are within easy reach: surfing, kite surfing, wind surfing, paddling, sailing, sand sailing, hiking, and much more. The kilometer-long hiking trails along the coast or through the surrounding forests and fields invite you to explore on foot or by bike.
