The Brittany / Cotes-D'Armor region

Central Brittany is a region of outstanding natural beauty. The rolling countryside is reminiscent of Cornwall, but without the density of population. The climate is mild and similar to that of the Channel Islands. At Kerdeven you will be surrounded by the most beautiful views and opportunities for walking. The area is steeped in history and at the heart of the 'Route des Menhirs.' The ancient standing stones that run in a circle around Brittany. The Nantes/Brest canal is in the process of being renovated to provide leisure activities, a far cry from it's origins. Napoleon Bonaparte commissioned it to be built by prisoners from local Goals. It was part of his grand plan to ensure the adequate delivery of food and supplies to his army without running the gauntlet of the British Fleet. It now has shutes over the locks for canoes. The local Abbaye de Bon Repos has been extensively renovated and gives a wonderful insight into local history, it is also the venue for a spectacular Son et Lumiere each summer. Ask us about restaurants, we are able to recommend both places for 'fine dining' and also those the locals use at lunch time. This area is a favourite with French cyclists who use it as a training ground. Many of the major cycling events in France go through the area.


Plouguernevel area

Plouguernevel is a small town just a short drive from Kerdeven. It meets every day needs with a chemist, general corner shop, bar, small workers restaurant and two bakers. Rostrenen is about 10 minutes away and has a good range of restaurants, bars, supermarkets and shops. There is also a market each Tuesday and this is definitely worth a visit. Rostrenen, Plouguernevel and surrounding villages have a variety of 'Fetes' throughout the summer months and we will be pleased to talk to you about those occuring during your stay. Although there are opportunities to indulge in many activities during your stay you will also be able to enjoy the peace of truly beautiful countryside on walks or cycle rides right from your door. If visiting in the summer whilst the Son et Lumiere is on at the Abbaye de Bon Repos we will be happy to provide information, it's event not to be missed as least once in a lifetime.

Guestbook for Manoir de Kerdeven

We had a really lovely holiday with enough room for our extended family to find their own space. Somewhere we will certainly want to return to.

Wow!! The banquesting Hall is really breathtaking - we had our own medieval banquet! We enjoyed having our own draught beer.

Thank you so much - you really made us feel welcome and were very helpful in getting us medical help when we needed it.
