The Brittany / Cotes-D'Armor region

Central Brittany is a place of beautiful rolling countryside. It has often been likened to Cornwall, but without the high population. It is a place of peace and the opportunity to pursue a range of country sports and activities without tripping over tourists at every turn. Visit the local markets - truly authentic markets for all year round trade. In most weeks one local village or another has a 'fete' or 'pardon.'

These are usually full of local colour, attended by local people and often end the day with a good hearty meal and perhaps some dancing. Children are always welcome. We are always pleased to advise you how to take best advantage of these opportunities.

If cycling is your interest we should perhaps mention that many cycling teams practice in this area, the countryside could have been designed to test your skills, or provide gentle exercise along the canal tow path if is this is more your style. Fishing is a popular hobby with many Bretons, with large patches of garden being the 'norm' many have created there own fishing ponds! For others there is the canal tow path or local lakes. We will be pleased to advise about necessary licences.

For those interested in history, Kerdeven is close to the Routes Touristique des Menhirs. This is a giant circle of ancient standing stones dotted in a circle around Brittany. We are always pleased to discuss your particular interests before you start your holiday.

The cottage is set in the rolling countryside of central Brittany. It is close to the Nantes/Brest canal (built by inmates of local prisons on the instructions of Bonaparte to open up a route for transporting supplies to his troops without running the gauntlet of the British Fleet).

In recent years much of the canal has been renovated and it has a good tow path with opportunities for cycling, walking, horse riding, canoeing (there are shutes to the side of the locks) and fishing. Cycles and canoes can be hired locally. A local riding school offers escorted rides. There is an off road mountain bike trail at Plouguernevel.

The nearby Lac de Guerleden is about the size of Windermere and has two good beaches and a wide range of water sports. It is also possible to book a boat trip around the lake whilst taking lunch. The ancient Abbaye de Bon Repos has undergone much restoration work, provides a good insight into local history and is home to an annual spectacular Son et Lumiere. There are museums and gardens open to the public and the English proprietors, although generally out of sight, are available when needed, for example for making restaurant bookings or doctor's appointments.


Further details

The cottage has a wood burner. The need for a fire is unusual during high season but we are able to provide wood if you would like to treat yourself to a blaze in the evening. The cost of wood is 15 euros for a wheelbarrow full on a help yourself basis. During low season when a fire provides additional comfort over and above the other heating provided there is a small chare for an unlimited supply.


Conditions

Although we welcome smokers we ask them not to smoke in the cottage or around the swimming pool.

Please enquire about facilities at the Manoir de Kerdeven for Corporate events.
