Beaches, Swimming Lakes and Pools
There are some wonderful swimming lakes with beaches within 15 minutes of La Cour at South Brittany Cottages and gites. They offer a great environment for younger children with gently shelved beaches and, of course, no big waves to contend with. Here are a couple of our favourites:
Lake Aumee
This wonderful swimming lake with a beach and picnic area also offers the perfect place to play and relax with the children. For the more energetic there is also kayak, windsurfing and catamaran rentals, available from 1 hour to all day.
Lake Buhel
This stunning swimming lake with a beautiful beach offers a fantastic day out for all the family. There is a childrens park, cafe, picnic tables, toilets and showers - plenty to keep even the most active children amused!
