This Breton quotation perfectly describes Cornouaille named by the nostalgic Celts after their native Cornwall when they fled the Anglo-Saxon invasion of Britain. This beautiful and temperate corner of Finistère where we have our own group of "Gîtes De Keraris" and a further 50 holiday homes is where we have been providing holiday accommodation since 1981. This is the perfect area from which you can discover that certain something which is specifically Breton.

The coastline gives Brittany its character whether it is pounded by mighty waves or lapped by gentle ripples. All our Gites are in very close contact with the sea, that has forged the land as it has forged its people.

Here you will be able to fully appreciate the characteristics which bring the Bretons nearer the Irish and the Welsh than anybody. You will also be constantly reminded of their determined endeavour to defend their traditions, culture and language.

The area enjoys the full flavours of a gentle climate. There is a Mediterranean type vegetation - mimosa, aloes, palm and fig trees all prosper here. It also has endless miles of beautiful coastline, perfectly kept safe beaches, impressive countryside, innumerable summer folklore festivals, countless places of interest to visit and superb food, especially Fruits de Mers. It is impossible to give more than the briefest outline of the region's charms, however if you are in search of a holiday from which you will return with glorious memories, we can recommend with confidence that you look no further.

On this web site you will find houses to sleep between four and 12 people in comfort, all the accommodation offered is of good quality and convenient for the shops and beaches of this beautiful area and is less than a 2 hour drive from the port of Roscoff.
