About
our region La
Combe is a pretty, stone faced cottage adjoining 2 other
farm cottages situated in a quiet, rural position,
roughly 1 mile equidistant from 2 villages, La Chapelle
Caro and Le Roc St. André. There is a fantastic butcher
in Le Roc plus excellent bakers and small supermarkets in
both villages. No need to venture further for all your
basic needs and even the pleasure of dining out, because
both offer a good choice of eating out possibilities. Within a few hundred metres from the cottage is La Voie Verte. Once a railway line, it now has an excellent tarmac surface for safe bicycling, roller blading or walking. For the energetic, it is some 40 miles in length if they are looking for a challenge. Nearby is the charming old riverside town of Malestroit, which has an excellent market on Thursdays. Ploërmel is a larger town and close to it is the Lac au Duc. Here there is a sandy beach for safe, fresh water swimming possibilities. Sailing is a popular activity on the lake and bordering it is an excellent 9 hole golf course, open to visitors and seldom busy. The beautiful Gulf of Morbihan
with its many beaches is within easy reach and among the
coastal towns to visit are Vannes, Auray, Carnac,
Quiberon, Concarneau, Quimper and many more. The nearest
beach (Damgan) is within 40 minutes easy drive. Inland
and close by are the town of Josselin with its impressive
castle and the forest of Paimpont with its legends of
Brocéliande, ideal country for walkers. The property looks out over fields to the River Oust and has a spacious garden to the front and rear, which is mostly grass, bordered with mature trees on the west and north sides.
