Does anyone have any thoughts on a driving route from Pleudihen sur Rance (near Bayeux) to Concarneau? I'm wondering if we should drive up along the coast and then head south or head inland. They both seem to take the same amount of time. We are not in a great hurry and would like some interesting scenery and restaurant options for lunch along the way.
Thanks!!
Hmm, My google maps shows Pleudihen sur Rance by Dinan, nowhere near Bayeux.
We were just there for 2M.
Concarneau is a charming town with a fortified inner town. Lots of restaurants, bars, etc. It's not far from Carnac.
I would drive some along the coast. The Bretagne countryside is pretty, but very bucolic - cows, etc. Quimper is a medium size town which is worth a stop. Pont-Aven, Pont l'Abbe, Locranon, Duornenez, all good stops.
Restaurants - there are many, and we never found a bad one. Best to specify a town, and maybe we might have a thought.
Can you check your spelling of the start location? A huge number of towns in Bretagne start with "Ple" "Plo" "Pol" and minor spelling variations can result in a town 120K away.
Hello. If you're looking for a very scenic route, take the North Coast, then at Morlaix, head towards Quimper. You'll cross the Monts d'Arrée, a region somewhat reminiscent of Dartmoor or the Botmin moors in England. https://www.toutcommenceenfinistere.com/grand-itineraire/grp-monts-darree/
