If you go to the Market on a Sunday morning, after the church clock strikes noon and the congregation leaves the church it is usual for traditional dances to be perfomed. Sometimes it will be a very polished performance, others a bit haphazrd and sometimes children get a chance to show off their costumes and dancing skills. These performances are mostly confined to high season - but on one occasion when we took three grandchildren they dis not appear at all.
There is musical accompanimemt and often free cider tasting and cake. It can be fun and is worth waiting around for at the end of the market.

The Sunday morning market is one of the best in the area.
We have been several times at different times of the year. July is by far the busiest with, it seemed, many more stalls and many more shoppers and visitors.
All the usual market stalls can be found there but there are a couple of speciality food stalls where you can put together in no time a very good Sunday meal to take home.
Fruit and vegetables of course, also breads and cheeses, locally made ciders and wines too.
But the most popular stalls are those selling ready cooked roast pork, hams and chicken plus garlic sauteed potatoes.
For desert try freshly made Breton Far - with or without prunes. We bought a large, still piping hot one when there were 8 of us to feed.
It turns out quite an expensive way to eat but less than taking 8 to a restaurant for Sunday lunch!
