Brittany is the wildest and most untamed of all the French regions, occupying the north western tip of France. Buffeted by the Atlantic Ocean and the English Channel, the rigged coastline is strewn with lighthouses, rocky coves, windswept heaths, sheltered beaches and charismatic seaside villages.
It was independent of France until 1547 which, along with its relative isolation from the rest of the country, has created a distinctive Breton culture, language and heritage closely related to those of Scotland, Cornwall, Wales and Ireland.
Brittany is the most popular summer resort area in France after the Cote d’Azur. The unspoilt white sandy beaches, soaring cliffs, rocky coves and offshore islands attract thousands of tourists each year. It is also a land of history with a rich heritage of ancient monuments and historic houses like the timber-framed ones in Vannes and Dinan which conjure up the Middle Ages.
