Surroundings
We are located in the village of Saint Cadou which is itself in the Parc Naturel d'Armorique which is part of the Monts D'Arrée.
We are equidistant from the north and west coasts of Finistère, and the south coast is just a little further. All of Finistère is easily accessible from our location which enables you to have a varied holiday, not have to live within the huge crowds and traffic at the beach 'resorts', and do something different every day depending on which direction you want to head and what the Breton weather decides to do!

Reviews
Miriam from Utrecht,
Fantastisch verblijf bij de Kergudon gites, in ons geval The Granary. Het huis was van alle gemakken voorzien (zeer goed geoutilleerd) en voor een Franse vakantiewoning was alles supernetjes afgewerkt. Heerlijke tuin en heerlijk rustig. De vriendelijke eigenaren Ben en David doen hun uiterste best om het de gasten naar de zin te maken, zonder nadrukkelijk aanwezig te zijn. Er zijn vanuit het (vrij stille) Saint Cadou zat leuke uitstapjes te maken, zoals naar het nabijgelegen stuwmeer, Brest of Quimper. Mooie omgeving om te wandelen ook. Een aanrader wat ons betreft!
Comment from Ben Dickins
Hartelijk dank voor uw vriendelijke recensie.
We zijn blij dat u genoten heeft van uw verblijf bij ons in Granary en dat u de accommodatie en de regio mooi vond. We zijn het ermee eens dat er veel te doen is in de buurt met als bijkomend voordeel dat het dorp en de directe omgeving rustig en ontspannend zijn!
We hopen u in de toekomst weer te mogen verwelkomen.
Restaurants, food & wine
Despite being in rural France, we are very fortunate that we have a pub and boulangerie in our village. Our nearest market town, Sizun, is 7 kms away and has all the basic services (supermarket, bakeries, cafe / tabac, pharmacy, bank, doctors, restaurants etc).
We have many excellent restaurants near to us. The closest is 2 kms from us on the bank of the Lac du Drennec with fabulous views over the lake which gets amazing sunsets. The menu is fresh and seasonal often with a Thai or Asiatic twist. This restaurant is only open between April and September.
Sizun and other local villages have a number of other restaurants and eateries including some of our favourites:
Auberge du Menez in the neighbouring village of Saint Rivoal (5 kms) which has an excellent menu of locally sourced food;
La Faincerie on the estuary at Daoulas (20 mins) in a beautifully renovated pottery factory. Their menu is fantastic and changes often;
Auberge de Saint Thegonnec in the village of Saint Thegonnec (20 mins) Semi-gastronomic restaurant with a good wine selection;
Les Jardins des Sauveurs in Landerneau (20 mins) in a fashionable 19th century town house.
Being Brittany there are countless creperies serving excellent crepes and savoury gallettes.
The region is very proud of its food and agriculture, especially organic farming, and there are many fabulous markets near us throughout the week selling amazing local produce.
Activities
We are located in the small village of Saint Cadou in the centre of the natural park of Armorique and the Monts D'Arrée. As such it is a fabulous area for walking, hiking and mountain biking / VTT (we have mountain bikes that our guests can use free of charge).
We are 2 kms away from the beautiful Lac du Drennec, an artificial reservoir with 2 beaches. Having fresh water and no large waves it is ideal for families with young children - and is always warmer than the sea! The lake has a watersports centre where you can canoe, sail and paddleboard and the lake itself has an excellent reputation for trout fishing.
We are almost equidistant from the north, west and south coasts of Finistère each with their own special character and charm. There are countless fabulous beaches (pebble, sand, small and large) within an hour of us, the closest being 35 minutes. Many are very shallow sloped so you can walk / swim out a long way and still be well within your depth.
Being centrally located in the departement, ,many of the interesting and historic villages, towns and cities are easily accessible.
