Situation
The property is in an old farming hamlet on the edge of Le Pouldu. Le Pouldu is on the coast about 25km west of Lorient. The house is within easy walking distance of the village and three different beaches. Le Pouldu has a couple of shops and restaurants and there is more choice at the neighbouring village of Clohars Carnoet, 4km. It is 12km to Quimperlé, a picturesque medieval town with excellent facilities: it has a swimming pool, tennis courts, a couple of good restaurants and picturesque half-timbered houses in attractive old streets. It is 15km to Pont Aven, well known for its association with Gauguin and other artists. It has several art galleries and is in a lovely setting with the river flowing through the centre of the town. It is 16km from Riec sur Belon, the oyster capital of the region. Other activities include horse-riding in the Forest of Carnoet and boat trips up the River Laita. There are wonderful walks along the coastal path starting near the property: to Le Pouldu harbour in one direction and on up the picturesque valley of the Laita, and in the other direction, you can walk to the pretty little port of Doelan, about 6km, a good place for lunch!
