See wild lands, Breton culture and a bewitching icon with Brittany Tourism.
Despite its proximity to Paris, Brittany feels a world away from the French capital – its name translates as ‘little Britain’ after all. Simply put, it’s like a country within a country, and though now part of France, the Celtic roots that existed before its 16th-century amalgamation still run strong. From the wild, rugged coastline that gives a wonderfully undiscovered feel, to the distinct Breton tongue and the centuries of human history, Brittany is unlike anywhere else in the country. Now Brittany Tourism and Brittany Ferries are offering you and a friend the chance to win a short break to this wild land packed with weathered views, antiquity and a splash of Celtic mysticism.
ANOTHER WORLD
Brittany may just be a small leap across the English Channel, but with a roll call of epic coastlines, medieval towns and emerald forests, it’s firmly a land for explorers. Many of those who visit make a beeline for its rugged fringes. Brittany boasts nearly 3,000km of coastline, and the chic resort of Dinard is one of the star attractions. Its sandy strips and cliff-hugging Belle Epóque mansions (more than 400 of them) paint an idyllic scene, one first adopted by the visiting British aristocracy in the late 1800s.
