More about Manoir du Hilguy
Close to the village of Plogastel St. Germain, in one of the most picturesque corners of Brittany, stands the 18th century chateau of Le Manoir du Hilguy. Once the home of French aristocracy, this fine house has been restored and converted to provide modern apartments and cottages, providing a unique holiday experience.
Here you can enjoy the peace and beauty of a particularly lovely part of rural France. This is also an area that is steeped in history, with many magnificent chateaux, stately homes, castles and fortifications to discover just a short drive away from Le Manoir.
Among the other local attractions are Bénodet, a charming seaside village with white sandy beaches; and Pont l'Abbé, southwest of Quimper, which has a superb shopping centre, a fascinating market and many fine castles, museums and churches. And for holidaymakers who love exercise and fresh air, there are plenty of walks to enjoy in the region, following well-marked paths, taking in glorious cliffs, forgotten river valleys, beautiful medieval villages and the most unspoilt scenery.
Brittany is famed for its seafood cuisine – 80 per cent of France's shellfish come from the region, so don't just go for the scenery, go for the food too!
Take in some fresh sea air
The seaside resort of Bénodet is popular with tourists and locals in the summer, thanks largely to its sandy beaches. Keen walkers and cyclists also love the resort's many cycle and footpaths.
Alternatively, Le Guilvinec's quayside is a wonderful place to watch the fishermen come in with their catches. As you might expect, the seafood restaurants here are superb too.
Go for a walk along the Crozon Peninsula
Part of the Armorique Regional Nature Park, Crozon Peninsula is one of the best places to go walking in the region. With 120km of coastal paths, you'll enjoy stunning views, particularly from the Penhir headland and the three rocks better known as Menez-Hom (‘at the giant's feet'). However, many of the paths can also be enjoyed on horseback or bicycle.
Play a game of golf (or two)
If you love golf, then you're in luck – there are five courses within an hour of Manoir du Hilguy. The 18-hole golf course at La Forêt Fouesnant, Golf de Cornouaille, gives players a fantastic view of the bay. It's also the oldest course in Brittany and surprisingly challenging, so beware if you're a newbie to the sport!
Take part in one of the many festivals
The Bretons are fond of their festivals – a huge number occur every year in the summer. There's something for everyone too, as there are festivals for music, religion, food, dance and more. Each one is traditional and colourful, so it's worth checking to see if any coincide with your next holiday.
Enjoy the rugged coastline of Pointe du Raz
Pointe du Raz is a popular tourist spot, and it's easy to see why. The most western point in Finistère, the rocky cliffs, crashing waves and La Vielle lighthouse make this one of the best views in the area.
