Tuesday was spent visiting what would be our nearest town and city. Chateaulin is a beautiful town with the Brest-Nantes canal running through the centre. It is very picturesque and had a good number of shops and places to explore. However, Quimper is simply breathtaking, the enormous Cathedral was magnificent, the adorable medieval buildings and … Continue reading
Monday was a day full of viewings in Finistere. How spending the day travelling around and looking at houses can be so exhausting for us adults I don’t know!

Travelling to France on the night ferry, with our two lively children, worked surprisingly well. We chose against a cabin and reserved just 2 reclining seats – we figured that as Charlotte and William don’t sleep very well even at home, that paying for a cabin would be pointless. Once we’d boarded and after exploring … Continue reading
