Holidays with your dog at Into the Prairie enjoy brittany together

We know that a holiday is only truly successful when your dog can be part of it.
At Into the Prairie, our holiday homes welcome travellers accompanied by their four-legged friends, in a peaceful, natural setting in the heart of the Breton countryside, just 15 minutes from the sea..

Here, you can enjoy your holiday in the great outdoors: walks from your cottage, dog-friendly beaches nearby (with an up-to-date list provided by Liz) and numerous country lanes for long strolls. I will be happy to share the best ideas for outings or activities to do with your dog so that you can enjoy Brittany to the fullest together.
