Just Be Retreat

A Safe and Comfortable Place To Land

Bright living room with open blue door to outside, wooden beam ceiling, white walls, large window with a plant and decorative items, wooden chair, wicker side table, colorful curtains, and artwork on the wall.

Where You’ll Stay

Tucked away in a quiet Breton valley, the house rests among trees, meadow and the soft sound of a stream — a peaceful haven where time seems to slow.

Lovingly restored with oak beams and natural textures, it blends simplicity with quiet comfort. Each guest has her own private room, while the open-plan living spaces downstairs — the kitchen, dining area and sunken lounge by the fire — are the shared and welcoming heart of the house.

Outside, two acres of garden unfold into shade, sunlight and stillness. You’re free to wander, linger on the terrace, or sit by the water and let the day drift by.
Every space invites you to pause, breathe and just be.

Outdoor wooden deck with a round wooden table, four wooden chairs, a large beige patio umbrella, black outdoor chairs, potted plants, and a green garden with trees and bushes under a clear sky.
Living room with stone walls, a black wood stove, and wood beams on the ceiling. There are colorful cushions on a floral-patterned sofa, a wooden coffee table, and artwork on the walls including a red and gold tapestry.
