We always are available to provide ideas for things to do during your
stay in the Cotes D'Armor. We have produced a folder of information
for each gite listing places to go and what to see, whatever the weather.
For each attraction we have given pricing information and opening times,
which will hopefully guide you to the best attractions. You can also look
through the recommendations from the other guests, as well as adding your
own. Below are some of the activities that may be available during your
stay.
- Markets - there are many historic towns
all of which have a market at least once a week - these traditional
French markets sell local vegetables, fish, meat, cheeses, clothes and
bric-a-brac, some even sell live animals.

sandy bays where you may not see a soul, to cosmopolitan towns with
restaurants, ice creams, sandwiches and activities along the prom, to
