    We have over 20 years of experience in helping people discover the joys of Brittany and of France.

    Our inclusive package offers groups of 8 or more a full programme of visits and activities. A guide and interpreter, meals, and the cost of all outings are included.

    We build a programme specific for each group and adapt the visits and activities to the needs and abilities of each one. Our inclusive package groups have had people from 8 to 98 years old in them. There can be an emphasis on manual or physical activities or on sightseeing, relaxing or a strong educational element as required. We encourage basic French language use so that everyone's confidence is boosted. For young people our French and English staff ensure a nurturing, relaxed environment. We'll help you meet and speak with plenty of local people during your stay. 

    A bursary scheme exists for members of groups who face financial hardship, to assist with the cost of the programme of activities and visits. Details are included in the brochure for groups.
