Fort La Latte

by black_mimi99

Fort-la-Latte/ Castle of La Latte is a castle located about 4 km southeast of Cap Fréhel and about 35 km west of Saint-Malo, in the commune of Fréhel, Côtes-d'Armor, Brittany.Built in the 14th century by Goyon-Matignon on a small piece of land at the Baie de la Fresnaye, this castle has been restored and redesigned in the 17th to early 20th century.It has retained its feudal and occupies a spectacular site.Overlooking the sea, the fort is separated from the mainland by two cracks as you cross over a drawbridge.The walkway, you will discover a stunning panorama across the Emerald Coast: The Sévigné Cove, Cap Frehel, Bay of Frenay, the tip of St. Cast, Ebihens Island, and St. Briac St-Lunaire, the tip of the Departed, St. Malo, and Parame Rothéneuf, Cézembre Island and the tip of Meinga.

Saint Martin Beach

by black_mimi99

While my visit in Bretagne, I was stay in this beach for 10 days, and almost everyday go to the beach to pick up so many seafood when low tide. It's a lovely beach.This beach in commune of Plerin.More about Plerin pls visit my Plerin page.

Montcontour

by black_mimi99

Moncontour indicates the membership of this place on a count or his vassal. The word could come from the Latin "Mons Consularis" which suggests that the fortress would have been (tentatively) the property of Beranger, Count of Rennes, who received the title of consul to 934.Atop its hill surveying two valleys south of St-Brieuc, the little historic town of Moncontour looks perfectly picturesque now, crowned by its highly decorative church, but its strategic location made it the focus for many battles, until business won out.

Vitré

Vitré is a medieval town very beautiful with a rich cultural heritage. It's a very good exemple of the Middle Age cities with castles, churches, very old houses (15th century), historic monuments, parks and nature.More about Vitré, please visit my Vitré page

Trestrignel Beach / Plage Trestrignel

by black_mimi99

Trestrignel Beach is the most picturesque of the 3 beaches in the Perros-Guirec.Beach Trestrignel is windswept. Pretty wild, which is its charm, as it is collected at the bottom of a hill and is bordered by the Castle Point, the rocky top of which you can enjoy a panoramic view of the islands.

Ile de Bréhat / Brehat Island

by black_mimi99

Ile de Bréhat is a "must do" to anyone touring Brittany. It is an ideal destination for a day trip or a week holiday. Described by many as the paradise island, it is situated 2km (1 mile) off the Pink Granite coastline, north of Paimpol in Côtes d'Armor.Visible from the mainland, Bréhat is renowned for its exceptional natural beauty and mild climate. As you arrive by ferry boat in Port Clos, south of the island, you are welcomed by the colourful pink granite coastline dotted of elegant villas with subtropical gardens, pine woods and coved beaches.More about this island, please visit my Ile de Brehat page.

Les Rosaires Beach

by black_mimi99

Les Rosaires in Northern Brittany was perfect for the North Easterly wind that was blowing. It's a perfect beach for windsurfing....This beach located in Plérin. Plérin is a neighboring commune of Saint-Brieuc.

Le Cap Fréhel

by black_mimi99

I never bored with the spectacular natural scenery of the cap Fréhel. It's jagged cliffs of schist and pink gritstone rise 70 m above the sea. when the wind blows across this impresive headland, the atmosphere of a never ending battle of the elements is haunting. Cap Fréhel is a peninsula in Côtes-d'Armor, in northern Brittany, France which extends off the Côte d'Émeraude into the Golfe de Saint-Malo. No towns or villages are situated on the peninsula however two lighthouses, one from the 17th century and the other one from 1950, are located at the tip of it. The Cap is located 8.5 km from the town centre of Fréhel.The peninsula is surrounded by mainly cliffs which make it difficult to access it via sea. The whole of the undulating terrain is covered in moorland and marshes which make it difficult to construct any structure on the site.
