LOCAL AREA

The picturesque town of Pont Aven is a 7 minute drive away. This was, at one time, the home of the famous French impressionist painter Gaugin. It has many art galleries and gift shops and is actually an inland port on the river L’Aven from where you can take boat rides to local islands. Features of this delightful town are its water mills, walks, typically Breton buildings and good selection of restaurants.

Concarneau, one of France’s large fishing ports, is a short distance from the park and boasts a fascinating walled mediaeval town in the harbour of the town with a museum and walks round the ramparts and of course gift shops and restaurants. Truly worth a visit, particularly on a Monday or Friday as there is a large market on those days. The town also has a good selection of supermarkets

Quimper the regional capital of the Department of Finistere, is a mediaeval city of great charm and character with its narrow streets and twin spired cathedral. It has an indoor market every day and the museum, shop and factory of the world famous Breton pottery company Henriot, can be visited. Quimper stands on the river Odet, (which boasts as being ‘the most beautiful river in France) where you can take a boat trip to the delightful seaside town of Benodet or vice versa.

There is always something going on in the local area - be it a ‘Pardon’ where there is the chance to see local Breton costumes at these religious festivals or a Fest Noz, which a good excuse to have a dance, food and a drink Breton style, or go to a Troc et Puce (local car boot sale). There are, of course, many other places to visit in Brittany so if you are thinking of touring the area , there are plenty of maps and details at the Reception.
PS: Don’t miss the zoo at Pont Scorf.

Walking, Cycling & Horse riding

If you want to stay local there are plenty of walks both coastline and country and are all well marked. They even have marking system for mountain bikes (VTT) to follow. The local maps are marked with all the routes. There are a number of riding establishments in the area that can cater for your interest.

All in all, this part of Brittany has a lot to offer - we don’t believe that you will be bored, but you will be relaxed.
