ACTIVITIES MORBIHAN - BRITTANY

All year round in Brittany, there’s always something going on: festivals and pardons (traditional religious celebrations),
fest-noz (lively Breton dance nights), local markets, brocante, flea markets, fairs and exhibitions,
Vannes Aquarium, museums and art galleries, castle visits, beautiful parks and gardens, charming villages to discover,
historic towns and “Cities of Art” to explore. Something for everyone, every week of the year!
No town is without its spectacle of colors, aromas and talents reflecting the charm of these towns and the identity of the land.

20 mètres from La Sabotière

Saint-Nicolas-des-Eaux

A lovely little tourist village in Brittany, feels like stepping out of time.
The River Blavet winds slowly past, full of fish and surrounded by places steeped in magic and legend.
Along the towpath you might spot herons and bright-blue kingfishers. Anglers love it here and happily
share the path with walkers, cyclists and families.
Just 200 metres from our gîtes is the Base Nautique water-sports centre – perfect for hiring a pedalo, a canoe or even taking
beginner or advanced canoe/kayak lessons on calm or white water. It’s peaceful, beautiful and there’s something
for everyone. Come and see for yourself!

Saint-Nicolas-des-Eaux, bars & restaurants

There are two restaurants where a variety of tempting Breton cuisine is available, bars, a pub and 1 creperie.
Isabelle (creperie 'Le Chalet') is specialist of 'crepes' and will be pleased to welcome you.
Why not stop and taste a traditionally made crepe...

For a brunch or just a cup of tea, Olivier and Camille will be happy to welcome you - Open between April and October, and every day in high season.

There is a small grocery at St Nicholas, open during the high season. 5 minutes drive brings you to the market town of Plumeliau where you can find supermarkets, banks, post office, and petrol station service...

The karting center is located at Port Arthur, just 3 kms from the village of St Nicolas.

There’s no public swimming pool right in Saint-Nicolas-des-Eaux, but you’re perfectly allowed to swim in the clean, refreshing water of the River Blavet (many people do!).
If you prefer a proper pool: Baud (10-minute drive) has a nice public swimming pool. Pontivy (also 10 minutes away) has a modern aquatic centre (with spa and indoor pools) and an open-air pool in summer. So you’re never far from a swim!

At Rimaison (8 minutes drive away) you will discover an undulating golf course which apart from its countryside, offers panoramic views of the Blavet Valley. SEE + ACTIVITIES HERE
