Between the countryside and the coast
Between the Goëlo countryside and the coast of the Bay of Saint-Brieuc, the house is a starting point for two ways of discovering the region: on foot, along the paths that cross fields and forest to the bourg and to the plage du Moulin; by car, towards the small towns and harbours that make up the Trégor-Goëlo coast. The bourg d'Étables-sur-Mer is a 20-minute walk away, the plage du Moulin 25 minutes. The harbours of Binic and Saint-Quay-Portrieux, only slightly further away, can be the goal of a fine walk or a bike ride, or are simply reached by car in 5 minutes. Saint-Brieuc and Paimpol are less than 30 minutes away by car (or by bus on the BreizhGo 201 line). Further out, Pontrieux, Tréguier, Guingamp and the Île-de-Bréhat round out a region where countryside and coast are never far apart.
