Robert runs a property and garden business renovating buildings and grounds to the highest standard, whilst Angela searches out other high quality properties for holiday accommodation and manages the letting business.Sitting room with fireplace

The Morbihan area is noted for its outstanding beauty, where almost one third of Brittany’s coastline is to be found. Gorgeous sandy beaches and rocky coves abound, which are never overcrowded even in the Summer. The roads are unbelievably quiet even in the Peak season, which makes travelling around very easy. Parking is usually free.

There are many towns to be visited including Auray, a mediaeval town with an old port at St Goustan and superb restaurants. Pontivy and Josselin are famous for their chateaux, Vannes an old market town and port has a magnificent cathedral and lots of interesting shops and 2 markets a week. Lorient is a new town with a variety of shops, cinemas, restaurants and is host to the big Interceltic Music Festival at the beginning of August every year.
