About

At the Manoir de l’Alleu, three cabins bear names straight out of Brocéliande: the Elfes, the Farfadets and the Lucioles. They stand about seven metres up in eight hectares of wooded grounds. The experience is deliberately off the grid: no water or electricity in the cabins, lantern lighting and dry toilets. A nearby toilet block provides water, electricity, showers and standard WCs. Towels are provided and breakfast is included in the advertised packages. The Cabane des Elfes is reached by a suspended footbridge of about ten metres. Capacities vary by cabin, with up to eight people across the three units. In 2026, Gîtes de France listed no Wi-Fi, no pets and prices of around 150 € for two depending on the cabin, with meals available by booking. Arrival is within a set time slot.
