Lac de Guerledan is a 20 min drive and there you will find a man made beach with many facilities. All details are in the information pack at the villa.
How far to the nearest supermarket and can we get bread in the village? A large supermarket can be found at Guemene sur Scorff a 5 min drive. The village will cater for your daily needs from either the bread shop selling veg, eggs, butter and milk etc and a butcher for cooked meats.

What temperature is the swimming pool set at? (Applicable mid May to Mid Sept) The swimming pool is set at 29 degrees, however, the heater is not the conventional type but an eco friendly one.

The temperature early June 2005/2006 was 25 degrees rising and cutting out at 29 degrees as the air warms through the summer.
Is there a pub within walking distance? Yes in the village you have the tabac Chez Marie The where you will find the locals. There is also The Welcome Bar owned and run by Bridget who is English and there you will find local and English people mixing happily. |
