Luxury bespoke holidays to Domaine de la Bretesche, Brittany
The Domaine de la Bretesche is a 5-star Relais & Chateaux hotel occupying the manor house and other buildings belonging to the 15th century moated Chateau de la Bretesche. Surrounded by acres of parkland at the heart of the Brière regional park in southern Brittany, the Domaine de la Bretesche also has its own 18-hole golf course. There are lovingly cared-for gardens with mature trees, shrubs, lawns and vegetable garden. The park exudes a sense of calm and tranquillity, complemented by a range of on-site activities to enhance your well-being: spa, indoor lap pool and tennis as well as the golf course. Through the park are jogging trails and bicycles can be hired. Inside the hotel you will discover a choice of dining options from the bistronomic restaurant Le Montaigu where a gourmet breakfast and dinner are served accompanied by views of the castle and lake (here there are 3-course and 6-course gastronomic menus); Le Club brasserie just steps from the golf course and offering a more relaxed culinary experience with less expensive menus and a more simple choice of A la carte dishes; and the Bar des Ecuries, enjoying a unique setting in the ancient stables. In the main building is a choice of elegant and comfortable rooms and suites, varying in size and with individual furnishings. A short distance from the hotel are also one-bedroom and two-bedroom villas, located in what was the sheep pen, with kitchenette and private terrace. The villas are decorated less opulently than the hotel rooms, but offer space, independence and privacy. Nestling in the grounds are thirteen cottages, with one or two bedrooms on two floors, and also equipped with a kitchenette and private terrace. Nearby explore the medieval city of Guérande, the dolmens and megaliths of the Gulf of Morbihan, the regional park of Brière and the Glénan archipelago.

About Brittany
An Expressions tailor-made holiday to Brittany is a chance to explore this extreme western part of France, which has been known as the Land of the Sea as wherever you are in Brittany it is never very far away. The sea continues to influence the way of life in Brittany as it has done for centuries and provides much of the charm and magnetism for the visitor with dramatic sunsets over the ocean, the excellent diet of fresh fish, breath-taking seascapes and authentic fishing harbours. There are both rugged cliffs and sheltered coves on the northern coast of Brittany where sea and land seem to merge into one as you pass around headlands and inlets and islands appear in the sea in the distance. On the southern coast of Brittany miles of soft sandy beaches are the right ingredients for a family beach holiday and mediaeval fortified towns are perfect sightseeing centres. Our selection of luxury hotels in Brittany are all located close to the sea with panoramic views of beautiful coastal scenery. Brittany is perfectly located for a self-drive touring holiday due to its location in northern France. Enjoy a holiday exploring Brittany's coastal scenery or incorporate a stay in the region into a longer holiday in a different part of the country.
