We live in a quiet area 15 minutes from Brest.
It is the ideal starting point if you like water activities (port of Brest), the beautiful beaches (20 min by car) and the walks on the coast of Finistère or on the islands (Ouessant, Molène, Bréhat, Batz by example).

There are many golf courses near the house and several equestrian centers if you love ridding horses.

Cultural visits are not lacking in Brest and its surroundings and Brittany is rich in beautiful discoveries: historic cities nearby (Quimper, Locronan, Rennes, Nantes ..) and a wide choice of music festivals in summer. Océanopolis is to see and do not miss the exhibitions of the Leclerc Cultural Fund.

If you want to cross the Channel to go to England, there are many ferries from the north coast to Plymouth or planes from Guipavas (low coast plane).
Paris is one hour with the plane and 5 hours drive with just express way or TGV (high speed train).
Normandie area is just 4 hours drive from home: you can visit the D-Day beaches, the memorial of Caen, and all the American cemetary. The Mont Saint Michel and Saint-Malo city are 3 hours from home.
