A visit to Brittany will leave you feeling like you're in a Celtic fairytale with many towns retaining their medieval architecture. Its dramatic windswept coastline changes with the weather from hauntingly, beautiful to utterly sublime - made all the more mysterious when you learn about Brittany's swashbuckling pirate past. Alternatively, a night in Rennes, Quimper or Brest is sure to be a relaxing experience of fine food, wine and entertainment. To the east, Normandy was the famed landing place for the World War II D-Day liberating forces. With port cities like Le Havre and Cherbourg bordering the English Channel in the north, to the picturesque Mont Saint-Michel and Bayeux (site of the famous Tapestry), Normandy is a wondrous place to visit.
