Romantic week-end in Brittany
Where can you go for a romantic break in Brittany ?
Want to get away from the daily grind? Recharge your batteries in the countryside or by the sea in Brittany! Whether hiking in the middle of nature, taking in a good book by the sea, visiting heritage sites or discovering the local towns, you will be able to enjoy the Breton culture. Sample buckwheat pancakes accompanied by the famous bowls of cider and many other specialities. Foodies among you will be tempted by the famous Kouign-amann: a real indulgence that's a toss-up between a cake and a pastry. It was invented because there was a shortage of flour, so the Bretons made up for it by using more butter... Best not to look at the number of calories!
Things to do during your weekend in Brittany
During your romantic weekend in Brittany, there are many activities on offer. All you have to do is choose!
- There is Mont-Saint-Michel, a true wonder: Even though the Normans stole this UNESCO heritage site from the Bretons (shhh), you'll find plenty of holiday rentals near the Bay of Mont-Saint-Michel. You can walk it, cross the bay with a guide, or learn more about the mussel farms.
- Relax in the seaside resorts: Brittany is full of beaches for you to swim. You will appreciate the fortified port city of Saint-Malo. On the Atlantic coast, relax in Saint-Nic or Lorient.
- What about a romantic city break in Brittany? Discover the half-timbered houses and cobbled streets of Vannes and Rennes. Your weekend will be filled with shopping, restaurants and museums.
- Rural Brittany: the perfect place to recharge your batteries. Escape for a few days into nature. If you like hiking, you can do part of the GR®34 which runs along the Breton coast. Heading in December? Discover the magnificent town of Rochefort-en-Terre, one of the most beautiful villages in France. It was even voted Christmas Village of the Year for 2017! A great place for a festive weekend with your special someone.
