Located in the green heart of Brittany, the village of Carnoët (Côtes d'Armor department) is an ideal base for day trips to many attractions in the region. TIPS: Within walking distance is the Vallée des Saints (Valley of the Saints). Since 2008, sculptors have been working here on an impressive collection of granite statues of Breton saints. The statues are about 13 feet (4 meters) tall and stand on a hillside with stunning views over the valley. New sculptures are added each year. From June to September, you can often see the sculptors at work here. About 40 minutes away by car is the large Lac de Guerlédan, with several beaches, shores, and water sports centers where you can kayak, sail, or waterski. The area is also very popular with hikers. The nearest coast is roughly a 45-minute drive away (37 km). Here, you will find several beaches, including Plage du Moulin de la Rive, a quiet sandy beach with free parking and picnic tables. The beach of Loquirec is also beautiful, with white sand. Of course, there are many more beautiful beaches in the area. For enjoyable day trips, you can consider cities and towns such as Brest, Quimper, Concarneau, Saint‑Malo, Vannes, Morlaix, Ploumanac'h (the famous pink granite coast, a MUST-SEE), Lorient, and Roscoff. Are you bringing electric bicycles? Then you are perfect here. The Breton hillside landscape is beautiful to explore, whether by bike or on foot. The quiet village of Carnoët is about a four-minute walk away and features a pancake restaurant and a small supermarket offering basic groceries, fresh baguettes, and fruits and vegetables. In the village near the mairie (about a 5-minute walk), there is also a charging point for electric cars. The towns of Carhaix and Callac are about a 15-minute drive away. Here, you will find plenty of shops and large supermarkets.

Some restaurants that we ourselves like to visit: In Carhaix: Pizzeria La Scala and Restaurant La Rotonde (reservations recommended). In Callac: Café de la Place, offering delicious three-course menus for less than €20. During the day, Rendez‑Vous Café Fredonia is also a great place to enjoy homemade pastries and Colombian coffee. In Callac, there is a large fruit and vegetable market every Wednesday morning. Guest access Unfortunately, the cottage is not suitable for wheelchairs due to the threshold at the front door and stairs to the first (bedroom) floor. Other things to note Charging point for electric cars within 5 minutes' walking distance at the town hall. We respect your privacy and expect the same from you.
