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.

Excellent Romantic Getaway.

Review Submitted: August 24, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We stayed at River Cottage in early August for our honeymoon. The location is fantastic being right on the river in the beautiful town of Josselin. The cottage was tastefully decorated and the facilities were more than adequate, the property also has parking and a nice garden with barbeque facilities. Josselin itself is well located about 2 hours from the north coast and 45min-1hour from the Atlantic coast. The town has lots of restaurants and a good friendly ambience. We wouldn't hesitate in staying here again and would recommend it highly to others looking for a peaceful getaway.

Review Submitted: July 5, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
A fantastic location with the tranquility of the canal right outside the property and the buzz of the market square with its street cafes a 5 minute walk way. The pictures really do match the reality and walking out of the garden and turning to see the view of the chateau right ahead was wonderful. A perfect setting in a unique property that had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing break. Phil and Maria - June 2009

River Cottage is in a delightful and charming location.Very quiet and peaceful yet just a few minutes stroll from the heart of the town. It has original features that are combined with modern amenities. The cottage is clean and
comfortable with excellent costomer service. There are lots of interesting walks along the tow path with some stunning scenery. Josselin has many good restaurants all within walking distance of the cottage.We enjoyed a very relaxing holiday.

Relax in river cottage

The Darbsters West Midlands
Review Submitted: August 14, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We had a really relaxing time in Josselin. This cottage has many period features yet still has all the mod cons you need. The canal at the bottom of the garden provides many experiences including cycling, boating and walking. The chateau is majestic and can be seen from the top floor of the cottage. Josselin is one of the prettiest places I have had the privilege to go to. This place is wonderful to get away from all the pressures of life and to relax. There are many places to visit near Josselin and info books are in the cottage. Also two big supermarkets nearby make shopping easy. The shop in the village that sells pastries is lovely; I suggest you try the pan raisins and croissants.
The Lac au Duc (man made beach) is 20 minutes away and provides a nice alternative to the sea side.
