The Brittany / Morbihan region

There are numerous activities to enjoy both arround the millhouse and further afield.

For children there is swimming, fishing and boating in the millpond, hide and seek in the surrounding countryside and 'Swalllow and Amazon' adventures along the riverbank.

There are lovely local walks, an abundance of wildlife (we have otters, herons, kingfishers and trout), and a tranquility to be envied.

Cycle along the Voie Verte a dedicated cycle route which meanders for miles through the surrounding countryside, or follow the towpath along the Canal de Oust complete with colourful canal barges and locks.

Further afield visit the monoliths at Carnac, there are days out at dinosaur and adventure parks, explore Merlins castle or enjoy a visit to a wildlife farm.

The nearby Lac de Duc with its own beach and recreational area is a huge freshwater lake at Ploermel (10 mins) with facilities for water skiing, wind surfing, boating, tennis and a superb golf course.

For days by the sea in secluded sandy coves or walks along rugged coastline the Golfe de Morbihan is within an easy 15 minutes drive.
