3 Bedroom Cottage in Saint-Thomas-de-Courceriers

La Goupillère is a spacious, restored old farmhouse which stands in the grounds of what was once a large working farm. The property has been a very successful holiday rental since 2011 and most of our clientele are returning guests or recommendations from previous guests so our fairly recent listing here does not reflect the very many five star reviews we have eaned in that time. Please read on to see what we offer...
The property is surrounded by arable land. There are no animal facilities or commercial installations anywhere in the vicinity. This is not to say there are no animals around, of course there are but only in the nice sense.
With living accommodation of 185 square metres (2,000 square feet) and with three double bedrooms and two bathrooms, each with a proper shower cubicle and one with a bath, the property is designed to accommodate up to six people in comfort.
La Goupillère is not a gîte in the traditional meaning of the term - it is a very well appointed detached country house and, although we live nearby and are therefore on hand should you need us, we are not on-site, so you can enjoy your privacy. The house is stand-alone and there are no other guests sharing any part of it.
What you see in the pictures is what you get, the whole property, the grounds and lots of covered parking hidden from public view. Because of this it is popular with visitors to the Le Mans 24 hour and Classic events, an hour's pleasant drive away.
This area of France has much to offer. It is farming country and most of the villages and towns hold events throughout the summer. There are lots of small medieval towns that retain their charm and history, amazing many visitors that they have never heard of them e.g. Sainte-Suzanne with its walled town, ancient fortress and château, Jublains with its extensive Gallo-Roman remains and Lassay-les-Châteaux with one of the best examples of a fortified medieval château in France, complete with a working drawbridge and barbican. Le Château de la Motte Husson, Dick and Angel's place featured in Escape to the Château, is a 30 minute easy drive. The map shows all the nearest ferry ports and airports and also what is within an easy one and two hour drive.
The Plantagenet city of Le Mans is an absolute must, especially so in July and August when the "Nuit des chimères" is enacted. You have dinner at one of the many wonderful, inexpensive restaurants then just as it's getting dark be prepared to experience one of the most enchanting spectacles you have ever seen. There are similar, if not quite so spectacular, events in Mayenne and Laval.
There are plenty of activities and the area is particularly noted for walking and rambling, cycling, fishing, horse riding, exploring ancient woodland or just driving through the beautiful and traffic-free countryside and forests. The Alpes Mancelles are 25 km but; although stunning, there is no skiing! There's plenty of scope for picnics and indeed these are a regular local pastime.
For swimming, there is a wonderful lake with a sandy man-made beach at Sillé-le-Guillaume, just 17 km away, another at Gué de Selle, slightly nearer and quieter and excellent public pools at Bais (7 km), Villaines-la-Juhel (11 km) and Evron (16 km). The beach at Sillé-le-Guillaume also has horse and donkey rides, boat trips, pedalos and bars and restaurants. It's great for kids and adults alike.

Sarah J. Jul 17, 2024 03:22:11 AM

Summary: Just what we wanted - lots of space, inside and out, very well equipped property and amazing tranquil area. We travelled with our dog and he loved the huge garden. Fab welcome from the lovely owners with a very generous welcome basket. They also arranged the appointment with a local vet for our dog to have his meds to be able to come home! If you are looking for complete peace and quiet and the opportunity to do nothing then this is the perfect holiday home!

Summary: Sally and Peter were amazing hosts, nothing was too much trouble and the welcome pack was incredibly thoughtful and comprehensive. Trying to please all ages from us in our forties to our teenage kids can be difficult however we all fell in love with the beautifully restored farmhouse in the stunning French countryside. From the wonderfully relaxed pace of life, the fresh coffee, pain au chocolates and baguettes I’m not sure what more I can say other than please do not book as we would like to return every year and not have to share this find at all!

Summary: We spent a wonderful week in this spacious, clean, fully equipped holiday farm with lovely owners. We were warmly welcomed with a drink. During the rest of our stay we also enjoyed their hospitality and their help and tips for discovering the area. We had a great time!

Summary: Gracious hosts who went above and beyond helping with vet appointments, directions to the property, things to do in the area, travel requirements as we traveled by car from the uk, we turned up quite late as we got stuck in traffic only to find Sally and Peter waiting for us thank you for being so kind, not forgetting the welcome basket that we so needed l was a little under prepared this trip, stunning tranquil surroundings, beautiful property, Nicci Richard and Perry big thank you from Blazer and Bowie
