You can do many walks simply starting out from our home and exploring the local area

Further away is the lake of Guérlédan 27 km – there are walks all the way around the lake, canoeing and mountain biking and you can swim/paddle board in the lake. You can also hire electric or sailing boats. We await the opening of the 275 metre Himalayan foot bridge  in July 2026   which will span the lake’s width.

You can hire mountain bikes/electric bikes in Pontivy at Pontivy Bike and in Plélauf by the canal and  have fun cycling along the Nantes-Brest canal in either direction (accessing it in Pontivy or other places such as Neuillac/Plélauf.

There is an indoor swimming pool with sauna and steam room in Gouarec, 16 kms and in Pontivy at Spadium. Pontivy also has an outdoor pool 50m long called la Plage.

Many cultural events and festivals take place throughout the year in Central Brittany. The Breton music and dance scene is very vibrant with frequent Fest Noz. There is also a big, yearly music festival in Carhaix.

We have a little cinema in Guéméne called Ciné Roch with a varied and interesting programme

Our location in the centre of Brittany means the north, west and south coast of Brittany are roughly equidistant.
