The village of Keraudy is well placed to explore the
many different aspects of the Cotes d'Armor, and in particular 'La Cote
de Granite Rose' - the Pink Granite Coast. With its broad sandy beaches,
dramatic rocky outcrops and superb scenery, the coastline is a fascinating
area to explore.
There are also various opportunities locally for the watersports enthusiast to indulge in such activities as sailing, kayaking, windsurfing, fishing, sand yachting, swimming etc - please ask for further details that we can source locally for you. Many of the towns in the area have outdoor markets on a regular basis - two of the largest being in Lannion on Thursday mornings and Morlaix on Saturday mornings. Either of these are an ideal way of sampling the local produce - such as the different breads, cheeses, meats, fish etc - or maybe for just taking in the atmosphere whilst having a coffee and croissant at one of the pavement cafes. For shopping, Lannion presents a wide and interesting range of individual stores, mostly centred within an easy walk of the pedestrianised town centre, with its historical timber framed buildings. There are also numerous wooded walks to enjoy throughout the local countryside and along the river estuary, in addition to the chateaux and historical buildings typical of the region. Or why not try exploring some caves, or sample a few locally made traditional Breton biscuits, or try a glass or two of cider at one of the local distilleries. There are regular outdoor musical concerts in Lannion from mid July to the end of August, and also numerous local cultural events such as art & photographic exhibitions, theatrical and dance conventions, antiques markets, guided walks etc happening throughout the year. Lovers of fine cuisine will not be disappointed, with a wide choice of local restaurants & creperies offering a vast selection of dishes, both traditional and international. From the three course 'Plat de Jour', or Speciality of the Day, at about nine euros per person, right up to a sumptuous five course restaurant meal with a selection of wines and cheeses, you'll be spoilt for choice. A
full calendar of the events and guide to all activities & restaurants
is available locally.
