I like to put great history in a local context including genealogy. I like to exchange, enrich myself with each other's knowledge. The Celtic and Gallo-Roman periods interest me particularly. Perhaps this is the reason why I live on a Roman road? Myself a former traveler, I lived 5 months in Ireland, a long time ago to fully immerse myself in this Gaelic culture. A good Breton in a way! Knowing my country well, past and present, I can usefully advise the traveler, including restaurants!!! Because I also love to cook and I appreciate good little dishes. THE DISTRICT The house is located in a very quiet area, near the forest of the coastal conservatory. You access from the house, directly on foot or by bike, to the trails, to walk and go to the TRIEUX estuary where unforgettable views await you, in particular the CHATEAU DE LA ROCHE JAGU.
