Today at the Brittany holiday cottage with heated pool I drove back up to Pontivey hospital to see Naomi and James.
Both are doing really well and one of the jobs I had to day was to register the birth at the mayors office within the town that the hospital is situated - Pontivey Noyal.
Naomi and I had to complete 2 different documents informing the mayors office James's full name and our full christen names including place of birth for both of us.
The hospital is just a 30 minute drive from La Forge the Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool.

Brittany holiday cottage with private pool
Today at the Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool after going to the hospital at Pontivey for Naomi's weekly check up we bought a new summer cover for the swimming pool.
Just shows its good to shop around and what ever happened to customer loyalty with the shop that installed the swimming pool, heater the lot qoating 592 euros for a new pool cover compared to the 380 euros we actually paid!
I don't think we will be giving any additional business to the original pool shop and by going else where we have also made a new friend.
The swimming pool at the Brittany holiday cottage was opened last weekend and we will begin to heat the pool this weekend ready for the start of April.
Guest enjoying a holiday at La Forge during April and May have private use of the heated swimming pool.

Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool
Its been another fantastic week at the Brittany holiday cottage with private pool for great weather.
Naomi and I have worked out in the garden in just shorts and T-shirts and then in the afternoons sunbathed on the terrace.
Today we took the winter pool cover off the pool and what a difference it made to how the garden looks in addition to the sound of running water.
As we soaked up the sun on the terrace of La Veille maison this afternoon it was great just listening to the running water of the pool and all the bird song coming from the garden and surrounding countryside.
The Brittany holiday cottages are situated in some wonderful countryside that is filled with the sounds and sights of some great natural history in the lovely hamlet of Kerbourbon.
Naomi catching a little sun before going in to the shade...this year as was the case last year March has provided some fantastic weather.

Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool
This week at the Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool we have had fun and games with one of our chickens, so much so we have given her a name.
She is now called 'HILTS' after the Steve McQueen character from 'The great escape' after escaping the chicken run almost every day- to be found outside the property.
At first I thought it was just a one of and gave her the benefit of doubt before clipping her wings as I try to not clip to give them some protection if ever a predator was to get inside the coup but as she was now getting out she was putting herself in greater danger.
So we clipped the right wing only to find that she was still getting out. We think she is flying on to the hen house and then launching herself over the 5ft fence. Yesterday we clipped the other wing and thankfully she is now staying put...lets hope she does not learn to tunnel...lol
The other two birds stay put as they are larger birds and I expect that due to there size they can not make the flight over the fence.
Buying the chickens for the Brittany holiday cottage has been a great decision as the children staying for there holidays at either La Forge or La Veille Maison love interacting with the birds.

Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool
Today at the Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool we turned on the pump finally after a week of problems with the electrics and removed the winter cover from the swimming pool.
It was lovely to see how clean the water was with just a little debris on the bottom but the clarity of the water was as clear as gin, even without the pump running since September.
We will run the pump now 24 hours per day and next weekend turn the heater on so that the pool is up and running for the start of April.
During April and May the swimming pool at La Forge Brittany holiday cottage is offered on a private basis and at just £350 per week currently plus a 20% discount on a Brittany ferry crossing makes for a great value holiday in Brittany.
From 24th May La Veille Maison is also available to rent until September.
La Forge is available to rent all year.

March weather in Brittany at the Brittany holiday cottage with private pool
Over the last few years the weather in March at the Brittany holiday cottage with private pool has been splendid with bright sunny days and this year we have not been disappointed.
Both Naomi and I have enjoyed sun bathing on the terrace of La Veille Maison over the last 2 weeks and its been a welcome break from the wet weather of January and February.
I have owned the Brittany holiday cottages now for 8 years and every year April and May provides some fantastic weather to enjoy the Morbihan region of southern Brittany and of course the swimming pool at La Forge on a private basis.

Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool
Today at the Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool was another hot sunny day without any clouds and how wonderful it is to have to get out of the sun because its to hot during early March.
Its been like this now since the start of March and looking at the weather forecast for the next 10 days the sunny weather is here to stay.
I remember back to last year in March 2013 while England was under a blanket of snow Naomi and I was basking in some spring sunshine and enjoying going out for some countryside bike rides.
The Brittany holiday cottage is surrounded in some beautiful countryside that's ideal to enjoy a bike ride.
Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool
Today at the Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool I finally gave up trying to get the new pool pump to work and contacted the supplier to ask for either a replacement pump or full refund.
I need to get the pool pump up and running by 20th March at the latest to get the pool ready for Easter, it takes about 2 weeks for the pool to be ready for use.
The swimming pool is available on a private basis during April and May for guest staying in La Forge and then shared once La Veille Maison becomes available from 24th May.

March weather in Brittany at the Brittany holiday cottage with private pool
With the start of March the weather changed dramatically at the Brittany holiday cottage with private pool to the extent that Naomi and I have worked all week in the garden in just T-shirts and today we just sun bathed on the terrace of La Veille Maison.
After just 4 hours I had to come in as I was getting a little red and Naomi had to stay in the shade as it was to hot for her being 38 weeks pregnant.
For a laugh we tried to re-create a picture taken March 2013 with one taken today at the Brittany holiday cottage.
March and April always seem to have good weather here in Brittany and La Forge is available to rent for just £225 per week from the start of January to the end of March.

Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool
Today at the Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool Naomi and I enjoyed working out in the garden in just T-shirts as the weather was so great.
We installed additional screening fence along the perimeter of the garden and were very pleased with the out come.
It was lovely just sitting on the garden bench, soaking up the sun and seeing all the daffodil's springing up ready to showcase there blooms.
We planted an additional 300 bulbs last October and already within the rose garden many are all ready in bloom.
We planted around 8 different varieties of bulbs and mixed them all up so its a lovely surprise seeing what comes up and where.
It's great having a lot of bulbs at the front of the holiday cottages and at the side to welcome people in to kerbourbon.
The guest arriving next week at the Brittany holiday cottage should enjoy a full display during there stay at La Forge.
During April the tulips should also be in flower so that the garden and property is in flower from the start of March through to October at the Brittany holiday cottages based in Kerbourbon.
During March you can enjoy a week at La Forge for just £225 making this Brittany holiday cottage great value for money and an ideal holiday destination to explore the Morbihan region of southern Brittany.

Brittany holiday cottage with private heated pool
Today at the Brittany holiday cottage with private pool Naomi and I were very busy getting every thing ship shape for the start of the swimming pool season.
I installed the new pool pump and now just have to wait 24 hours for the glue to set on all the pipe work before switching it on.
In addition we cut the lawn and installed new screening to keep the garden and pool private.
Its been a wonderful day today, being warm and bright enough to sun bath and its been great working out in the garden at the Brittany holiday cottage at the start of March.
Last year in March we were able to sun bath as the weather was so nice and it looks like its going to be repeated this year.
