Josselin as a 'petite cite de caractere' is proud of its heritage from the Chateau de Josselin and the Basilica de Notre Dame de Roncier to the River Oust which flows through the town as part of the Nantes-Brest Canal. At nearby Ploermel, the Lac du Duc offers beach facilities, swimming, watersports, walks and a nine hole golf course. Arthurian legend in Brittany is focused on the nearby Foret de Brocelliande. 25 minutes drive south is the Golfe de Morbihan, a vast bay which has many islands, sandy beaches and rocky inlets. This part of Brittany enjoys an unusually warm and sunny climate. One hours drive to the north offers a rugged coastline, the Cotes d'Armor, Dinan, Dinard and the walled city of St Malo.
