The property is situated in the beautiful countryside of southern Brittany just 10 minutes drive from the typical French village of Languidic. The medieval market town of Hennebont with its typically French weekly market, bars and restaurants is just a 10 minute drive away.

We're also just a 15 min drive from the the quaint old town of Auray, the starting point for Stage 2 of Tour de France 2008 (Auray to Saint-Brieuc). Visit this picturesque and historic town, with its beautiful, quaint harbour filled with narrow, winding cobbled streets and half-timbered 15th and 16th century houses - a real step back in time. Stroll across the lovely 17th century stone bridge which spans the river and provides a splendid view of the harbour then enjoy a relaxing drink/meal in one of the many waterfront bars and restaurants.

We're also perfectly located within a 30 minute drive from the beautiful coastline of southern Brittany. Large sandy beaches and bays offer the opportunity to relax, swim, surf, sand yacht, windsurf or kite surf.

Visit the Neolithic standing stones at Carnac then spend time on Carnac-Plage, a large, gently sloping beach of fine sand and one of Brittany's most modern and lively seaside resorts it provides a good choice of amenities together with colourful cafes and restaurants serving good quality, reasonably priced food.

Take a trip to the beautiful medieval town of Vannes which is located just on the edge of the famous Gulfe de Morbihan (a sailing metropolis, also known for its oyster farms). Vannes also offers the opportunity to sample smart shops, bars, restaurants and a lovely marina where the cafe terraces are often overflowing with alfresco diners.

The port town of Lorient is very close by, again offering a lively selection of shops, bars and restaurants. During the first two weeks of August it is well worth visiting Lorient for the annual Interceltique Music Festival which takes place in the town centre and which attracts many artists/musicians from England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, Spain and Brittany. The first weekend of the festival normally kicks off with a large parade of bands and dancers all in traditional costumes - it really is something special.

You really should visit Rennes, the capital town of Brittany with its beautiful architecture, large selection of shops, bars and restaurants. It has a very high student population which provides the town with a vibrant nightlife but Rennes is particularly nice in early July, during the Festival des Tombées de la Nuit. Its streets are then full of people enjoying the free street entertainment and eating or drinking at the terraces of the restaurants and cafés.
