Location

  • Le Guily lies in quiet and tranquil countryside, amongst green rolling hills and lush wooded valleys in the Blavet valley. However, the hamlet is not at all isolated and there is an abundance of picturesque towns and villages. The little village of Kergrist with its church, baker and grocery shop,garage, bars and restaurants is one mile away, or a short cycle ride. Three miles away is the picturesque small town of Mur-de-Bretagne with super-market, pharmacies, baker, butcher, petrol station, post office, banks, tourist information centre, mini-golf and good bars and restaurants. The larger historic town of Pontivy, formerly known as Napoleonville, is 6 miles away, with the river Blavet and the Nantes-Brest canal flowing through the town. There are several larger super-markets, a wide variety of shops and many good bars and restaurants with an excellent farmers market on Mondays. The famous Chateau in Pontivy is well worth a visit.

With several safe, sandy beaches, this is a lovely place for swimming, walking, riding and fishing. Numerous water sports are available, including water skiing, windsurfing, canoeing and sailing. Pedaloes, canoes and rowing boats can be hired and cruise boats offer tours of the lake. Many parts of the coast are only a 40-minute drive away. Linen can be hired for 9 euros for a double and 5 euros for a single bed per week. We ask you to bring your own bath and beach towels.
