The Brittany / Morbihan region
The Breton people are extremely warm and welcoming and the region possesses a unique culture. Three languages are spoken, French, Breton - western Brittany, and Gallo - eastern Brittany. The Breton language is most similar to Welsh and Cornish with many words being identical.
The traditional building material is local granite, although there are many examples of medieval half-timbered buildings. Chateaux are set in a green countryside, which is criss-crossed with beautiful waterways such as the nearby Blavet and L'Evel rivers and the Nantes-Brest canal. Brittany's coastline stretches from the northern Channel coast around to the Atlantic in the West.
Brittany is famous for its seafood dishes and crepes and there are some excellent, local restaurants at which to sample the local 'fare'.
Blavet Valley / Baud area
The cottage is centrally placed for a number of towns. Baud and Locmine are just ten minutes away for essential shopping trips and browsing the weekly street markets. Pontivy, a larger centre with an impressive chateau and a mixture of half-timbered and Napoleonic architecture, is 15 minutes away. The cities of Vannes and Lorient are only 30 minutes away, and offer visitors everything from old sea ports and historic sites to rainy-day attractions for families with kids.
Throughout the summer, towns and villages hold festivals - Fez Noz - to celebrate their cultural heritage and the city of Lorient, some 30 minutes away, hosts the Inter-Celtic Festival of music and dance which attracts over half a million spectators.
How to get there
Within minutes of the N24, a major dual-carriageway, the hamlet is just a 2- hour drive away from the ferry ports of Roscoff and St Malo. Cherbourg and Caen are a little farther away but via excellent roads.
The region is well served by airports at Rennes, Lorient, Brest, Dinard & Nantes. Major car rental companies have offices at all of the airports.
Detailed directions and/or co-ordinates for SatNav are issued upon a confirmation of booking.
