THINGS TO SEE AND DO LOCALLY 

Sports
The lake in Priziac is the centre for  Tennis, sailing, pedalos, fishing and swimming, and there is also a playground for younger children.  There is a municipal swimming pool at Le Faouet, and horse riding at the Abbey of Langonnet.
Golf is within 30 minutes drive at Pontivy.
The area is ideal for walking on the numerous “chemin rurales”, and quiet roads provide ideal routes for serious cyclists or for those who just want to potter.

SIGHT SEEINGMarkets are a popular attraction with their cosmopolitan mix of rustic charm allied with the convenience of the familiar. Specialties include andouille (local sausage), cheeses, pate, organic foods and don't forget to try the Breton Cider.
