Infinite variety is the key to Brittany's timeless appeal: from 2000 km of unparalleled coastline to the rich landscapes of the interior, from period architectural gems to the unspoilt simplicity of pretty rural villages. The unique bonus of Brittany is a vibrant celtic heritage, revealed in its language, music, dance, colourful local festivals, religious traditions and mystical sites. Stroll through the enchanted forest of Broceliande, study the avenues of standing stones at Carnac, people-watch in the lively streets of Quimper, admire the bizarre rock formations of the Pink Granite coast or take a boat to the tiny Ile de Sein at the end of the world. All this and more is covered in Footprint's fantastic guide. What the locals say: Suggestions from local people on where to go and what to do A year in the region: Month-by-month guide to pros and cons of visiting at certain times of the year Great days out: A series of great driving routes and city walks Favourite things: The author's personal recommendations of a place or an activity Pick of the picnic spots: Where to picnic and the best places to buy your goodies
