(Translated by Google) I love this place ! The smell of honey welcomes you and there is plenty of choice in the possible variations. I have a weakness for seaside flower honey, delicious!

J'adore cet endroit ! L'odeur de miel vous accueille et il y a l'embarras du choix dans les déclinaisons possibles. J'ai un faible pour le miel de fleurs de bord de mer, savoureux !

Excellent local honies. Miel des Dunes has a particularly delecate flavour
Andrew James — Google review
(Translated by Google) Exceptional products, of very good quality and a large choice of varieties of honey.
I withdraw 2 stars because very disappointed by the delivery time (+ than 10 days) while it is invoiced nearly 20€ (with more than 100€ of products ordered).
I think it can slow me down in a future order, especially when we have a large consumption of hive products.
(Original)
Des produits exceptionnels, de très bonne qualité et un grand choix de variétés de miels.
Je retire 2 étoiles car très déçu par le délai de livraison (+ de 10 jours) alors qu'elle est facturée près de 20€ (avec+ de 100€ de produits commandés).
Je pense que ça peut me freiner dans une prochaine commande, surtout quand on a une grosse consommation en produits de la ruche.

(Translated by Google) Nice place with lots of honey products, but also soaps and beauty products. My daughter who suffers from eczema has used the honey soap and it has been good for her. We also tried the rum with honey, an association that we don't necessarily think of, which was really excellent.

Endroit sympathique avec beaucoup de produits à base de miel, mais aussi des savons et produits de beauté. Ma fille qui souffre d’eczéma a utilisé le savon à base de miel et ça lui a fait du bien.

(Translated by Google) First and certainly not the last visit to this place. Products all more interesting and delicious than each other!

Imposing 16th-century castle occupying a tiny rocky island, accessible by boat for tours & events.
Impressive pest control feature in the Morlaix bay

The fort itself is pretty cool, definitely worth a visit. I found the history to be even more exciting though! 4/5 stars because there is not that much to see/do.
Andrew Jeffery — Google review
Excellent organization of the visit from the start, with a straightforward, informative website, to picking up our tickets, to the boat shuttle. Knowledgeable staff too - and don't forget the gift shop. Quick, the last bell is ringing - don't miss your trip back to the mainland!

Tried to book for Friday 7/7/23 as offered on the website but was booked for Wednesday 5/7/23; requested a transfer to our booked date and were told this was OK. We arrived on Friday to find the trips that day were cancelled for staff training. We were refused a refund on the grounds we should have turned up for the Wednesday booking.

The trip was very interesting. The staff were very nice. At the ticket office, on the boat and at the chateau.
Andrew Heaney — Google review
We travelled from Plouganach harbour and had a 30 minute boat ride with some announcements in French for local pointers - such as the navigation methods in these rocky waters.
The fort is very well kept and 1 hour is about right.
Stunning setting.
Barnenez is an ancient and vast burial site located on a lush peninsula overlooking the Bay of Morlaix near Plouezoc'h, approximately 10km north of Morlaix. Constructed between 4500 and 3900 BC, the stone mausoleum features eleven chambers and measures an impressive 75m. The cairn consists of two distinct sets of tombs attached to one another that were built during different eras.
Incredible to think this cairn was built nearly 6,000 years ago the cairn is huge - what must have people thought back then! Thankfully saved in the 1950/60s it is a powerful and spiritual place to visit, particularly with the mist rolling in to create a real atmosphere.
It was about 6€ to enter, there is a small exhibition which is worth spending time in. Signage was in French, English and German. Allow for between 1-2 hours for your visit.

Sj LeHoven — Google review
Interesting due to its age (up to 6,000 years old) but very little to see. Perhaps like Lascaux II, create a mock-up of what a tomb would have been like, with offerings etc as at 6€ per person quite expensive.

Really cool site but unfortunately you can only walk around the building. Not many exhibitions or information available. 6 euro per person
Ziboud Van Veldhoven — Google review
This monument is just huge... If you have 20-30 minutes ... You should consider listening to the tour guide, this guy or girl is worth it ... The immense power of the stones around is amazing.
You should also consider following the coast next to it ... Close by there is hidden coast ... Beautiful houses and OMG the landscape is breathtaking!!!

I'm not sure what I expected, Its big and very old over five thousand years I. I visited on a cold say and the visiter centre was warm and cosy and the staff were friendly. It is on top of a hill and you get a good view of the surrounding which are picturesque. There was a set of pictures displayed outside. I think They were done by a local school I think which was interesting. One visit is enough I think, and I doubt I will go again.

Having walked from Le Faouet without knowing what to expect I was taken aback by this chapel perched on the edge of a slope with its dramatic little sub chapel (for the want of a better term) reached by a walkway. There's even a bar for refreshments!
David Perrott — Google review
Magical hidden chapel with gothic atmosphere and deeply wooded walkways. Walked down to the fountain which is about a half kilometer down hill.
The Wicklow Wench — Google review
Beautiful and peaceful spot. With a bar on the hilltop. Great walks from here. Or, even better, follow the walk from Le Faouët marketplace.
A plethora of carved statues situated on top of a hill so valley is slightly misleading. Entry is free and it takes a couple of hours to get round. The statues are well carved and you can watch new ones being made.

The Pink Granite Coast, also known as Côte de Granit Rose, is a section of the coastline located in northern Brittany's Côtes d'Armor department. The area spans over 30 kilometers from Louannec to Plestin-les-Grèves and includes Trégastel. It is characterized by its unique pink granite rock formations that are scattered along the coast, making it an exceptional destination for nature enthusiasts and tourists alike.
Poul-Fetan Village in Quistinic is a living museum that offers a glimpse into the old pastoral ways of Breton. The village features immaculately restored shops, lands, and houses where actors portray elements of days gone by. Visitors can enjoy Breton games and explore well-maintained surroundings with authentic buildings and friendly staff.
A short walk from the River Blavet. Worth a visit to learn about Breton life and crafts. Also it is worth visiting Quistinic while you are here. Quistinic has a beautiful church and a small fountain (Fontaine Saint- Mathurin).

Realy nice old village. Authentic buildings, staff and work. Few of the staff speaks english but as there were not so man visitors we had the chance to Stick beside those who were able to translate everything to us. That did help a lot. The show of the ladies at the handwashing part is great if you are fluent in french, if someone isn't, things need to be tranlated and jokes are being lost. We were able to help feeding the animals, which was a lot of fun! Thanks again to the young Lady and Gentleman who were helping to translate into English for my husband.

An actual small hamlet that has been preserved to show Brittany life around 1850.
Lots of demonstrations and explanations - many in English as well as French.
Excellent café with the chance to eat in at wooden tables or outside if the weather's OK.
Hard to find - not well signposted - down a country lane in the middle of nowhere - use your satnav!
Bit of a walk from the car park if wet.

Stunning old village and relaxed, easy movement around , sat and enjoyed a picnic in château grounds very pleasant afternoon was had.Have been before and will go again twinning witha visit to Auray on the banks of its river.
Paul Shanahan — Google review
If I could give this place a few more stars, I would!! The Breton games and authentic, beautiful, well-maintained surroundings would have been enough to sell me on this place, but even every house is outfitted with beautiful and timely furniture and objects. The staff are friendly and informative and the presentations are very well done, just long enough to give good information, but not so long as to completely lose my youngest child's attention (age 4 at the time of this post). If there were a few more opportunities for hands-on participation during the demonstrations for the kids and maybe a vegetarian option at the only restaurant on-site, this place would hands-down be my PERFECT family day out. As it is, you can bring a picnic, so it was still great! Also be warned that absolutely everything - demonstrations, explicative panels, menus, everything - are in French only.
Holly La Rosa — Google review
Good reconstitution. However quite overpriced (14€/pers) and unfriendly staff….
Careful that the place says it closes at 19:15 but they don’t accept people after 18:30 (not mentioned on the website)
Manon Robin — Google review
This has been really well imagined and executed. Even with teenage children we stayed for three hours. A video introduces you to the local life as it was, there is plenty to see, including a bakery and a restaurant. Best of all, though, are the traditional outdoor games - not just a few but many.

Scenic location, peaceful, nice walks and lovely beach area

Amazing experience seeing the lake drained a few years back. It was fascinating to see the preserved trees, houses and reminants of slate mines. Also the cracked mud and little ecosystem that had managed to build up over the summer. Being on a pedalo on the lake a year earlier made it even more surreal.

Lucky to live 30 mins away, visit regular with dogs, no rush of city life here, just peace and tranquility paired with beautiful views.
Brilliant! We absolutely loved it!
Prices are very reasonable, pretty much no queue for the rides, variety of rides and attractions for all ages. Staff incredibly nice and friendly. Overall very clean, well maintained and looking quite new!
Totally worth it! Keep up the great work!

Very lovely, clean park with super nice employees. Prices for food and drinks are okay. Only downside was how extremely busy it was, with the parking lot and road leading up to the park overflowing. We also waited 70 minutes for Apollo, but this was correctly advertised on the signs in the queue.
Overall a very good park, especially for the low entry price!

A real find to keep children entertained! Lots to do and reasonably priced. Great rides.
My only criticism is a lack of good food outlets and also enough staff to monitor... My daughter went missing last year, and none of the staff had walkie talkies or any form of communication to help. With so many children there, I think that's a must!

Pleasantly surprised. Our 8 year old really enjoyed all the rides, he loved Gravity and the Tower. His height wasn't an issue, unlike another theme park done this year.
Queues were not an issue.
All the staff was particularly friendly, that is to be commended.
I probably would bring a picnic next time. Not a lot of choice of places to eat, even during high season.

At 6€ per adult this is amazing value and large site to discover most of which in good condition for a ruin. Very enjoyable visit indeed. Vaut le détour, un grand site à explorer et découvrir. Merveilleux.

Want to get a sense of Breton in 1201? Here it is!
The abbey is a ruin but with a little imagination you can hear it’s bells to toll. The grounds are well kept and there are little info cards in multiple languages as well as tours in French.
The lack of roofs on many of the buildings gives a surreal sense of the place and the view onto the sea makes it seems like time stopped as the views the monks had was probably similar to our modern day.
It’s a great way to start the day by a visit to the abbey and if you have time there is a lovely trail through the forrest that starts at the abbey. If you’re not in a hurry I would also recommend stopping for cake and fresh juice at the abbey cafe.
The abbey is surprisingly wheelchair / park accessible with various lifts and ramps—even if some parts will be harder to access.

Very beautiful abbey in ruins. The contrast of the stone building with the green landscape is amazing. Just by the sea it offers a nice walk to enjoy the sea breeze. You have to buy a ticket to get into the abbey (6,5€ adult) but to walk in the gardens around the abbey is free.

We used the boat to see the Classic Yacht Regatta being held in Paimpol this weekend. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We took a friend in a wheelchair and it was fine with a manual chair, but no electric chairs as they have to lift you. Had a very enjoyable evening and would highly recommend.

Wonderful scenery on the trip around the islands. Brehat is right on the limit of the coastal habitable zone, and on a warm late summer day it's hard to imagine what the place must be like in the winter, with the sea crashing on the hundreds of wrecking rocks that surround it.

Great service offering a quick trip to and from the island of Bréhat. We crossed at around 10am and the (smaller) port carpark still had a few places available. The car park on the hill above the port was filling up quickly and already very busy at that time. Well worth the visit.

(Translated by Google) Magnificent natural site, very well preserved. There are several ways to reach the cape. One of the ways is to take the stairs set up from the port allowing you to go up there via the blue lakes. Several routes are then indicated, of varying duration (the long tour of the cape is approximately 7km). Cap d'Erquy is generally accessible, even to beginner hikers.
It’s splendid and we take in the sight!

Cap Fréhel is a stunning and picturesque peninsula located in North Brittany, France. It features impressive cliffs, two iconic lighthouses, and offers breathtaking ocean views. The area is known for its colorful flora and offers hiking trails that allow visitors to explore the beautiful landscape at a leisurely pace. Nearby attractions include the fortified city of Saint-Malo, the Pink granite coast, and the medieval castle at Fort de la Latte.
A very nice place. But as we have been there it was very foggy. But it is definitely worth to visit!

The Château de La Roche Goyon, also known as Fort la Latte, is a sandstone castle built in the 14th century encircled by walls, towers and dungeons. It houses medieval war machines and features a cannonball heating furnace which provides an educational insight into the weaponry of that era.

château de la Roche Goyon, 28 rue de la Latte, 22240 Plévenon, France
Tombe de Merlin, located in the Paimpont forest, is a remodeled neolithic woodland burial site that is believed to be the final resting place of the legendary wizard Merlin. The forest is also associated with figures like the fairy Viviane and the Knights of the Round Table. Visitors can explore various sites related to these famous figures, such as Merlin's tomb, the Fountain of Youth, and the Vale of No Return.
A bit crowded in high season, but overall a great place to visit.
La fontaine de jouvence is just few meters away, you can visit both at the same time

First off, this is not a French Stonehenge but it is a well worthwhile stop while traveling through the area. Parking is free and caters for a good number of vehicles. There is a forest walk that takes you to the visitors centre experience which is paid for but you can just do the walk and use the toilets.
The stones are set in a wooded glade, some horizontal but many standing.
There were a few people milling around but you can generally find an angle without showing them for pictures.

“O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming...” This a nice way to use the word and an interesting place to visit: Les Remparts de St. Malo, a walk along the top of the tall granite walls that circle the charming village of St. Malo in Brittany. Imagine the medieval life, admire the Gothic and Romanesque town cathedral, step down the stairs to enjoy crepes washed down by cider. Wear a hat, take time to reminisce and appreciate the historical magnitude of how the allies were able to conquer the town back to the French. In the summer bring a swimsuit or hat, or both, otherwise bring an umbrella.

Les Remparts de Saint-Malo are a granite wall that surrounds the city, built from the 12th century. I really liked the panoramic view of the sea, the baby islands, the beach and the historic buildings of the city.
👍 I enjoyed walking along the ramparts, which are about 2 km long and have several access points. I learned a lot about the history and culture of Saint Malo, the city of corsairs and writers. The ramparts are well preserved and restored and have some interesting features such as cannons, statues, towers and guardhouses.
🌟 I give 5 stars to this attraction, which is a must-see for anyone visiting Saint-Malo. It is a great way to discover the charm and beauty of this fortified city. I recommend it

The Grande Plage du Sillon is a long, sandy beach located in the heart of Saint-Malo. At low tide, it is one of the city's most popular hangouts, with its crystal-clear water and fine sand. The beach stretches from Intramuros to Parame and bustles with activity all day long.

Grande Plage du Sillon is the largest beach and was voted the most beautiful beach in France in 2018. It stretches over three kilometers of fine sand and connects two neighborhoods of the city - Intra-Muros and Parame. During high tide, the beach completely disappears, and during low tide, it becomes a very wide beach.
Malina T — Google review
At 3 km long, it is the largest sandy beach in Saint-Malo. The dike was built from 1883 to 1913 on an old sandy beach. With a length of 1671 meters, it runs along the Grande plage lined with numerous villas built at the end of the 19th century. Along the Sillon, a line of breakwaters protects the dike from the force of the waves. Built at the beginning of the 19th century, the oaken breakwaters have a depth at least equal to or even greater than their visible height.

Grand aquarium of Saint-Malo is one of the most popular in France and it's easy to see why. With over 600 species of marine animals, this is the perfect place to explore all sorts of aquatic life. There are sections for cold and temperate seas, mangroves, tropics, and a ship wreck!, so there's something for everyone.
A wonderful experience of almost immersion in the world of fish and the sea. Although it was very crowded on the day we were there due to bad weather, it was still a great experience and the displays/tanks were informative for interested adults, whilst being entertaining and visually interesting for the kids. The underwater cave experience towards the end was second to none. The admission price is a bit steep though and there didn’t seem to be family tickets for larger families. Not completely accessible for people with mobility difficulties due to some sections only being accessible by stairs.
Peter Williams — Google review
The aquarium was an adventure! It is a good option for all ages. It offers a great educational experience and also a sensory experience since there are stations where you can actually touch the animals. They divide the aquarium is different sections that host different species from a specific area. There is information available in both, French and English. You can easily spend 2 hours walking around and participating in the activities offered, such as the submarine immersion. It is well organized so you will definitely enjoy it. I’d suggest visiting early because it can get crowded. Bring your snacks, get your camera ready (without flash) and spend a lovely day learning!

John Hayes — Google review
One of the best aquariums I have been to. The visit of the aquarium is also supported by local and sailor legends which my children enjoyed. The explanations are in English and French. The place is super well taken care of and there are even some attractions I have never seen in an aquarium, such as being in your own "submarine" to see fish as if you were in the sea or a deep abyss simulator. There is also a place where one can touch fish. Finally the ring with the sharks was a highlight of the aquarium. Like I said, one of the best aquariums and we were more than happy to support them at the very nice gift store. Good job guys, continue the hard work! We could see how much you love sea animals.
The sculpture of grotesque heads in the city of Oceanside are a surreal attraction. They were created by Father Adolphe Fouéré, who retired to Rotheneuf after a stroke and carved them into the granite cliffs overlooking the sea. The heads face out towards the ocean and may have been inspired by local legends of pirates.
Beautiful place with great views. The entrance was 5€ and you get a brochure with information on the site, which explains its origin and more of the man behind this work. They have a small gift shop too. You have further information inside and nice wooden benches to rest and enjoy the view. Feel free to take a snack with you. The whole visit can last around 30 minutes. The place offers lovely views of the sea and the surroundings. It wasn’t crowded when I visited, which was during the afternoon.

A delightful experience, I think that the entrance price of €2.50 is symbolic, this place is really worth visiting. The view is also very beautiful and a big plus is the beach at the foot of the statues. If you are the type of person who doesn't like crowds, this is the ideal place

Sculptures on the rocks. you need to pay 2.5€ / person because the entrance to the rocky beach is 'private'. Note the access is quite steep and if it is raining it could be slippery and dangerous. Lastly, you will not need to spend more than 5' to take some photos, at least this is what I did :)

Well worth a visit. Great views and a good set of rock carvings
Keith Allen — Google review
Just a tiny bit disappointed, the sculptures are just a few and we paid €2.5 each. Really small beach and isn’t much to do once you climbed down. I took some fantastic shots with the dog and that was it. There is a cafe which is really basic, but nice view

Very cool carvings on a very beautiful rocky stretch of coast. Costs €2.50 and we loved it. No bathrooms nearby.

We were disappointed with this site. It was very small, we paid 2.50€ for the entrance fee and there was very little information about the history or meaning of the sculptures. We stayed there for about 10 minutes then decided to leave. Lovely views but not the best site to see...

This place is stunning. Best, when tide is low and not to crowded.
Shoes with good grip are recommended!

Beautiful location off the beaten path from St Malo.
A couple of euro entrance fee and very small. Just the one rock that has the Sculptured Rocks on it.
Great views and a very nice area, worth a look if you're in St Malo or nearby but limited to visit as a stand alone day out.
The nearby town has some nice places to get food and drink. There is an expensive terrace restaurant (Benedit) overlooking this

A beautiful beach with oysters and shells. There are rock-cut sculptures that blend in with the overall landscape. Nice place for a short stop.

Portes Mordelaises - Site historique Rennes centre
The 15th century gatehouse with a barbican and evidence of a drawbridge is the best historical remnant of Rennes city walls. It's located in the old town area, making it an ideal photo spot and great place to walk and relax.
It looks very good after restoration

This felt like the oldest part of the city with visible ruins. Many crêperies & historical buildings nearby.

Really cool massive medieval site, a must-see in Rennes, near the Cathedral (that you must visit too, very majestic)
Julien RAGAS — Google review
You would never find this place without a recommendation, but it is a gorgeous, welcoming little restaurant with delicious crepes. The staff -- which seemed to be a family to me -- were warm, polite, and forgiving that our party did not speak a lick of French. This little back alley (literally) creperie is surrounded by many busier, happening ones (we joked that this area must be "the creperie district"), but Mordelaises is a true gem.
Michael Morrissey — Google review
A very interesting and well-preserved historical architectural medieval artifact. It helps the imagination and stimulates interest in the history of Bretagne and France as a whole. The building went on throughout the tenth century. Gate through passage, the remainder of the fortress walls of the city of Rennes. It was the main entrance to Rennes. Named in honor of the city of Mordelles. Mainly served as an entrance for processions. Equipped with a movable bridge, which is preserved. Very essential impression. There is information on the stands, however, only in French. But the name of the street is in Breton :)

This was the most impressive structure during my visit in Rennes. The surrounding was rather quiet as there was nobody there.

6 Rue des Portes Mordelaises, 35000 Rennes, France
The majestic Parlement de Bretagne is a historic building in Rennes, Brittany that once housed the parliament for Brittany. Today it houses the Court of Appeal, where it is possible to have a guided tour of its 17th-century architecture. The Parlement de Bretagne has a storied history and was accidentally set on fire in 1994, but was restored and reopened five years later.
質実な外観からは想像つかない、豪華絢爛な室内装飾に驚かされる。ガイド付きツアーは一時間半、フランス語のみ。ツアーは時間帯が限られているので、ネットで事前予約するのが良い。
(Translated by Google)
You will be surprised by the gorgeous interior decoration, which is hard to imagine from the simple exterior. The guided tour is one and a half hours long and is only in French. Tours have limited time slots, so it's best to book in advance online.

Not a huge building to tour. Accessible with licensed tour guides only. Was stinky due to pigeons.
Evelyn C. — Google review
As English speakers with limited French, Sacha was a wonderful guide and gave us a brief overview in English before moving to the next room, despite the tour only being officially only in French.
The parliament itself is amazing and not to be missed, both for understanding Bretagne and Rennes. He was well received by the native French speakers. He is well versed in French and Breton history and ably (and graciously) answered all of our questions.

Parlement building is a very beautiful place. I watched the festival of music and lights. It is a very beautiful place and also safe. The people can go for a walk with the family and children.

A must place to see on a tour guide which is fairly cheap, around 7 euro and 4 euro for students.

Pl. du Parlement de Bretagne, 35000 Rennes, France
Parc du Thabor in Rennes is a large, landscaped garden with aviaries containing non-native bird species. It's close to the city centre and is a great spot for couples on a romantic break. The gardens feature beautiful roses and an aviary with parrots, doves and songbirds.
Beautiful park with a lot to see. The park has a mix of formal borders and arboretum. There is a bandstand with regular shows over the summer. A Japanese style pagoda birdhouse has cockatiels and lots of other birds while a farmyard area has chickens. Lots of interesting sculptures are dotted around the gardens. There is also a vegetable patch and rose and dahlia show beds.

Wonderfully manicured gardens, and an aviary filled with the most beautiful birds. An oasis of peace, beauty and tranquillity.

This park has everything: a waterfall, grass fields, botanic gardens and animals. We visited this park on a sunny day and spent the whole afternoon picnicking there. It is lovely

Loved it so much, so peaceful, quite a pleasure to come and relax and look at the birds. Also, loved the ping-pong tables, it's super fun to play table tennis outdoors, under the shade of the trees.

A great park situated in the city. Many open spaces, walking paths, gardens, and even animals. The botanical garden is really nice. The Orangerie is a magnificent building. Excellent park for a picnic.
Bill Allan — Google review
I enjoy parks!
And when you say the word Park, better to give it a value: indeed, this park is composed of several spots, including a nice garden with large fountains "Jardin à la Française", a Café, a botanical garden with a diversity of plants and flowers, each named after a celebrity, a playground for kids, a table tennis is also available, and so.
The park can be done in like one or two hours, and you can choose your best spot within, then relax, and spend a couple of hours or the rest of your day; depending on how much you seek nature and relaxation.
Patrick Kattan — Google review
First place to visit in Rennes, especially when the roses bloom. But there are flowers all year round there + magnificent trees + nice statues, marvellous views, fountains, even small waterfalls, lots of birds, wild or domestic, etc. Place to picnic and enjoy the sun in summer...
Igor Berezhnoi — Google review
Beautiful park on the edge of the city. You can spend a short time to walk through or stop a while and enjoy the ambiance. We found plenty of seating available to enjoy our packed lunch in park after having enjoyed walking between the vast array of flora.
If you in Rennes put it on your list to visit.
