LOCAL ATTRACTIONS: Less than 30mins drive is Lake Guerledan with pedalos, kayaking, boat trips, fishing, horse riding, small beach, cafes and restaurants. North is Guingamp with its restaurants, bars, traditional buildings with period facades, whisky distillery and lively festivals in July and August. West is Huelgoat with its mythical forests, lake, restaurants and bars. With numerous quiet lanes in the area and the Nantes-Brest canal nearby, the area is perfect for cycling and walking. Plenty of beautiful beaches and coves within reasonable driving distance.
Markets are regularly held in many of the local towns and villages nearby selling fresh produce and Breton specialities. Festivals and events celebrating Breizh (Breton) culture often take place during summer months to which visitors are always welcome .
Being centrally located - nowhere is too far! Most parts of Brittany and their key attractions are easily accessible. It's easy to explore the coastal areas and stunning beaches of Northern, Western and Southern Brittany as well as the larger attractions the area has to offer such as aquariums, castles, historic towns (Dinan, Josselin, Vannes to name but a few), water and adventure parks - each one a perfect day trip. There are plenty of visitor leaflets in the property as well as a comprehensive information pack to get the most out of your stay
GETTING THERE: The port of St Malo is the closest and approx. 1hr 30mins away. The crossings to Cherbourg and Caen are quicker but the drive to the property is further (Caen 2hrs 50mins & Cherbourg 3hrs 10mins). The nearest airports are Rennes or Nantes. The tunnel from Calais, of course, is another option.
