Joddwallgate is a beautifully renovated
house in the centre of the small, friendly farming village of Kerfourn
in Southern Brittany. The house has been carefully and lovingly restored.
The village is delightful and is situated
in the Department of Morbihan in South Central Brittany, it is extremely
quiet and offers minimal but adequate local services. There is a Boulangerie
within smelling distance, a small general store and a bar within ‘crawling
distance’. In addition there is a pretty local church, pitches for
boules and a Mairie.
Less than half a mile away there is a well
stocked trout and course lake where you can fish all day for £2.50.
Fishing tackle is available to borrow at no charge. Bikes are available.
Pontivy is a fairly large town some 5 miles
away and here you can find a wealth of restaurants, night clubs, cinemas,
swimming pools and shopping opportunities to suit all tastes. Pontivy
is the only town in France to be named after Napoleon Bonaparte and
is built on the attractive Nantes-Brest canal and Blavet river system.
The town also has an interesting chateau and museums. Approximately
12 miles away lies the pretty medieval town of Josselin with its imposing
Chateau ramparts and doll Museum. The nearest beaches to Kerfourn
are about 35 minutes drive away but what beaches they are!
