Nathalie & Benjamin
« We chose Guidel for its wild beauty, its forests, its secret coves and the unique light of southern Brittany. We share our home with you with the same care as if you were family. »
Natives of Morbihan, Nathalie and Benjamin renovated La Maison Magnolia with the desire to create an authentic space where every detail matters. Each morning, Nathalie prepares a home-made breakfast using local products — artisan jams, fresh pastries from Guidel’s bakery, fresh fruit juice, market honey. A meal that puts a smile on your face before starting your day in Brittany.
Benjamin, passionate about hiking and Breton heritage, will be delighted to guide you towards the least frequented coastal paths and coves of the Morbihan shoreline, local farmers’ markets and must-visit local restaurants. Together, they have made La Maison Magnolia a warm and attentive home, where every traveller is welcomed like a long-time friend.

The Region
Guidel, in the Heart of Morbihan
Guidel is one of the best-preserved coastal towns in Brittany, halfway between Lorient (12 km) and Quimperlé (15 km). Its white sandy beaches, protected dunes and 800-hectare maritime forest make it a sought-after destination for nature lovers, far from the crowds of typical seaside resorts. Each season reveals a different face: flaming autumn colours in the forest, powerful Atlantic waves in winter, flowering dunes in spring, lively beaches in summer.
From La Maison Magnolia, you can reach Guidel-Plages beach in a few minutes, along with the coastal hiking trail GR34 or the coastal cycling route linking Lorient to Quiberon. For cultural outings, the Festival Interceltique de Lorient (every August), the Cité de la Voile Éric Tabarly and the Golfe du Morbihan — listed among the world’s most beautiful bays — are all within an hour. Guidel’s weekly market, held every Tuesday morning, is the perfect place to put together a delicious picnic with local producers.

EXCELLENT Basée sur 17 avis Publié sur Google Anne-Christine KeßelerTrustindex vérifie que la source originale de l'avis est Google. Unser Aufenthalt bei Raphael war einfach fantastisch. Das Haus, der Garten, die Einrichtung und Raphael selbst, alles war einfach wunderbar. Wir waren in einer "Notsituation" und Raphael hat, ohne uns zu kennen, sofort geholfen und uns unfassbar gut unterstützt. In der Wohnung hat man alles was man braucht und es ist sehr stilvoll und liebevoll eingerichtet. Einfach ein Ort um sich wohl zu fühlen. Die Lage ist auch perfekt, wenn man auf der Durchreise in den Süden ist. Raphaels Haus befindet sich mitten in der Stadt, ist eine grüne Wohlfühloase und in der Nähe vom See von Dijon. Wir danken dir sehr lieber Raphael und werden sicherlich wieder kommen.Publié sur Google marie claire walterTrustindex vérifie que la source originale de l'avis est Google.
