Brittany has four regions,
each with it's own distinct identity: the Côtes D’Armor to
the north boasting steep cliffs and attractive medieval
towns; Finistère on the west coast, heavily influenced by its
maritime roots; Morbihan in the south has a
huge number of megaliths and Ille et Vilaine in the east where the
beautiful emerald coastline stretches from
Le Mont St.-Michel to St Briac.
Brittany
makes a great holiday destination with direct ferry services from the
UK and offering a wide choice of competitively priced gite
accommodation. It covers a huge area so it really is possible to
get away from it all and discover the celtic roots of this incredible
region, or to soak up the and on the beach if you prefer!
