A Night Under the Stars

Here in La Martais, in the heart of the Breton countryside, the nights are still truly dark. Far from big cities and artificial lighting, the sky above the Au Lutin Pommé gîte offers a rare spectacle: a starry sky visible to the naked eye, clear and deep.

🌟 When the night finds its true nature

At nightfall, something unique happens. Silence falls, the light fades naturally... and the stars appear, one by one. No need for sophisticated equipment: nature does all the work. On clear nights, you can observe constellations, make out the Milky Way, or make a wish on a shooting star.

🔭 A simple and magical activity

Grab a blanket, settle down on the grass or on the patio... and look up. Kids love looking for shapes in the sky, while adults enjoy the absolute peace and quiet. There's no light pollution on the horizon: the sky unfolds in all its grandeur.

🌱 A small luxury that has become rare

Today, being able to observe the stars is almost a privilege. Without having taken any special steps, the Apple-Spangled Elf naturally benefits from a dimly lit environment, preserved by the simplicity of the location and its isolation. An asset that we like to share, in the greatest simplicity.

✨ What if… Diben was watching too?

When the wind calms down and the leaves barely rustle, it's not uncommon to think that someone else is observing the stars with us. Perhaps Diben, our little korrigan, is also silently marveling... hidden between two branches or under a stone, his eyes shining with the same light as yours.

📌 In practice

• No need for a lamp or binoculars: come as you are.
• Best times: late spring, summer or fall when the sky is clear.
• Bonus: Cool nights are often the clearest 🌠
