ACTIVITIES
Brittany hides many delights for those who have lots of energy or just want to relax. There are miles of coastline to explore, from the windswept Atlantic coast to cosy harbours and beaches. Inland, the Ille et Villaine area has 7 golf courses, forests (Brocéliand - the home of Merlin and Athurian legends), Megaliths, byways and footpaths for walkers, cyclists and horse riders, waterways for messing about in boats (the River Villaine does not deserve its literal name "ugly woman" as it has many beautiful aspects). The construction of the Nantes/Brest Canal was begun by Bonapart in 1804. There are steam trains (from Paimpol to Pontrieux) for slow trips and fast ones to Paris (TGV 2 hours).

For Golfers there are 7 excellent golf courses nearby and with very few hilly areas it is a cyclist/walkers paradise. For the sports enthusiasts there is horseriding, fishing and watersports within easy reach. For children there are zoo's, water parks and a prehistoric park, complete with dinosaurs.
