The Brittany / Cotes-D'Armor region
Brittany is a fascinating area of France with a warm and temperate climate. It has its own identity and culture, and there are many historic places to visit and interesting things to do. From the house its just an easy drive to countless outstanding, safe and clean sandy beaches, rocky coves, bustling fishing ports and coastal paths - perfect from family holidays.
Inland from the coast you will find lush countryside with pretty villages and market towns, lakes and rivers. Of particular interest is the nearby town of Plancoet (famous for its spring water) that hosts a weekly market, shops, several cafe's and an outstanding restaurant, riverside walks and beautiful park. Within a 30 minute drive is the Rance River with it's abundance of wildlife, resorts and marina's, and a riverside path/cycleway stretching from Dinard to the Old Port of the medieval town of Dinan (and beyond to the heart of Brittany).
Within a very short drive is an extensive lake system leading to the tiny town of Jugon-les-Lacs with its beautiful lake offering watersports and fishing, its market square boasting several restaurants and cafe's, and its unusual architecture. This part of Brittany is famous for its seafood restaurants that serve shellfish and seafood caught locally, crepes and gallettes and, of course, local cider and wine!
Landebia area
Within walking distance of The Well is the ancient, unspoilt Hunaudaye Forest with its evocative Chateau just a short drive away. The village of Landebia has a beautiful church, a bar with grocery section and a train station, with daily trains travelling the short distance to Dinan and Lamballe, two historic market towns with stations leading to major towns and cities in Brittany and France.
Most of the surrounding villages, and all the towns, hold special festivals celebrating their culture and pride in their local food and wine, music and dance.
The nearby Chateau d'Hunaudaye holds musical, dramatic and film nights throughout the summer months, and the surrounding area offers a wealth of restaurants, cafe's and creperies offering live entertainment as well as local dishes.
