For buying and selling property in Bréhan
Bréhan is a thriving small town that is set in the Morbihan department of Brittany. Set close to the Nantes Brest Canal, it makes a perfect holiday base as it has easy access to all the major attractions of Brittany. And it's only just over an hour's drive to the south coast of the region, with the beautiful sheltered beaches of the Gulf of Morbihan.
Bréhan is a vibrant little town that offers excellent amenities. There's a good sized Super U supermarket for all everyday needs, local shops, a pharmacy, a petrol garage and a few restaurants. Not bad for a small country town in rural France! Larger facilities can be found in the lovely mediaeval town of Josselin, just thirteen miles away.
If you enjoy outdoor activities, Bréhan and its surrounding area really is the place to be. Whether your pleasures are walking, horse-riding, swimming, fishing or cycling, this area is just perfect. There are a couple of golf courses close to the town as well, and no less than three swimming pools in the neighbouring town of Reguiny. The Lac au Duc, at Ploermel, is another great place to enjoy fishing and water sports.
A drive of just over an hour will take you to the glorious beaches of the Gulf of Morbihan. From here you can also take boat trips to the islands that lie just off the south coast of Brittany. The mediaeval town of Josselin, packed with heritage and things to do, is closer to home but definitely worth taking a day to enjoy. Then there's the departmental capital of Vannes and the standing stones at Carnac, so whoever you are, you'll find something you want to see in Morbihan.
If you like to travel by air, there are several airports that you can opt for. Brest, Dinard, Nantes and Rennes are all possibilities. Ferry travel is also a great way to go, with accessible ports at St Malo, Roscoff, Caen and Cherbourg. St Malo and Roscoff are the closest. Finally, if you're travelling by car, you'll find the town on the D2/D207, which is between the N24 and N164 non toll motorways.
Morbihan isn't the cheapest of the Breton departments for property, as it is arguably the most desirable. But, in 2012, prices tend to be a little lower and there are some great bargains to be found. Currently prices start at just under 100,000 Euros for a two bedroom cottage.
