Great experience in spring. We missed some of the azaleas at their best. Rhododendrons stunning. Frogs were croaking in the pond. Excellent place to visit, Reminds me of the garden of Heligan in Cornwall.
A really nice pleasant set of gardens complete with a nursery to by some plants, well worth a visit. 👍🏻 Highlight was the Aquatic Garden which is stunning. Also the Bamboo area was fun. As far the rest even though there are plenty of plants and lovely walks although the labelling of many of the plants need replacing and the borders were in great need of weeding and maybe lacking staff. Given the amount of rhododendrons and magnolias I imagine this place is absolutely stunning in spring and early summer. I think 3/5 is too low maybe a 7/10 would be more an accurate score for me. I would definitely visit again in Spring if I was in the area.
Very pleasant well looked after gardens. Many frogs and dragon flies in the aquatic garden. Picnic here was lovely. The bamboo is amazing ..some huge and very think . Well worth a visit and a small shop to buy some good quality plants too😊
Lovely spot, so calm and relaxing. Beautiful water gardens and interesting paths to explore. Worth a visit if you like plants and nature.
Lovely gardens. Make sure and visit the water pond. Frogs at their best. Very vocal. (June 9th)
Lovely and gentle gardens - not too manicured within an inch of their lives - luckily no room in the car to start taking plants home with us from the nursery shop!
Very nice garden, countless Rhododendrons and many other known and unknown flowers. My favourite place is the aqua-garden with the lake and the sitting areas around. And don't miss the mineral showroom and the garden shop to buy some plants for your home.
Beautiful and relaxing visit. Many unusual plants and trees.

Beautiful absolute gem
(Translated by Google) Beautiful, interesting place for curious families interested in the meaning of sailors' lives. The morning shelter is a well-documented and illustrated museum; it is also a social work of the philanthropist Jacques de Thezac who created around ten of them on the Breton coast, thus offering tough sailors a quality place conducive to the elevation of the spirit and entertainment (reading, board games) References to the life of the sailor are well documented, including all the legends of mermaids and sunken cities. On the beams, nice little maxims reminded the sailors of the modesty of the human condition; to have. A short film on Breton legends completes this beautiful visit. Thank you 😀l (Original) Bel endroit intéressant pour les familles curieuses s’attachant au sens de la vie des marins. L’abri du matin est un musée bien documenté et illustré ; il est aussi une œuvre sociale du philanthrope Jacques de Thezac qui en a créé une dizaine sur la cote bretonne offrant ainsi aux rudes marins un lieu de qualité propice à l’élévation de l’esprit et le divertissement (lecture, jeux de société) Les références à la vie du marin sont bien documentées avec notamment toutes les légendes de sirènes et de cités englouties. Sur les poutres des petites maximes sympas rappelaient aux marin la modestie de la condition humaine; à voir. Un petit film sur les légendes bretonnes vient compléter cette belle visite. Merci 😀l
(Translated by Google) A superb exhibition. Well-researched and very enjoyable to read (the texts are simple and informative without being heavy-handed). The presentation is pleasing; it truly conveys the education received by the cabin boys, the daily lives of the sailors, and all the values ​​they passed on to us, for those who were fortunate enough to receive this educational cultural heritage. Thank you for this exhibition. (Original) Une exposition superbe. Bien documentée, très agréable à lire ( les textes sont sobres, ils renseignent sans lourdeur) La mise en scène est agréable elle raconte bien ce qui fut l’éducation reçue par les mousses, le quotidien des marins et toutes ces valeurs de vie qu’ils nous ont transmises pour celles et ceux qui ont eut la chance de recevoir cet héritage culturel éducatif. Merci pour cette expo.
(Translated by Google) Anchored in the heart of the port of Sainte-Marine, a magnificent little cove which is the marina with a few professional boats still present, the Abri du Marin de Sainte-Marine museum presents the history of the Abris du Marin and the fishermen Bretons. A former place of life for fishermen and the local population, it is now a place of memory and transmission. There is a shop there. The exhibitions change from year to year. (Original) Ancré au cœur du port de Sainte-Marine, une magnifique petite anse qui est le port de plaisance avec quelques bateaux professionnels encore présents, le musée de l’Abri du Marin de Sainte-Marine présente l’histoire des Abris du Marin et des pêcheurs bretons. Ancien lieu de vie pour les pêcheurs et la population locale, il est désormais un lieu de mémoire et de transmission. On y trouve une boutique. Les expositions changent d'une année sur l'autre.
(Translated by Google) The original morning shelter has been transformed into a small museum with an exhibition on shipwrecks and the lives of sailors in this shelter where one could meet families, play, celebrate, drink (but not alcohol), herbal tea or brandy, that is to say water, learn and even sleep. (Original) L'abri du matin initial est transformé en petit musée avec une exposition sur les naufrage et la vie des marins dans cet abri où l'on pouvait rencontrer les familles, jouer, fêter, boire mais pas d'alcool, de la tisane ou de l'eau de vie c'est à dire de l'eau, s'instruire et même dormir
(Translated by Google) Nice little local museum in the town of the photographer who created the sailor's shelters and the Breton sailor's almanac. Permanent and temporary exhibitions. Unbeatable prices. (Original) Joli petit musée local dans la ville du photographe qui créera les abris du marin et l'almanach du marin breton. Expositions permanente et provisoire. Tarifs imbattables.
(Translated by Google) Small museum inside a delightful building, unfortunately only seen from the outside because it was closed. (Original) Piccolo museo all'interno di delizioso edificio, purtroppo visto solo da fuori perchè trovato chiuso.
(Translated by Google) At the beginning we wonder why this museum "the sailor's shelter" and then we discover who and why this shelter was created, what it was used for, and that is very interesting. In addition there was an exhibition on "The feminine sea". Upstairs, there are books and comics available. Note the friendly welcome and the purchase of a comic book that I had started to leaf through and which captivated me: An Ocean of Love. (Original) Au début on se demande pourquoi ce musée "l'abri du marin" et là on découvre par qui et pourquoi cet abri a été créé, à quoi il servait, et cela est très intéressant. En plus il y avait une exposition sur "La mer au féminin" .A l'étage, il y a des livres et BD mis à disposition. A noter l'accueil sympathique et l'achat d'une BD que j'avais commencé à feuilleter et qui m'a captivé : Un océan d'amour.

Awesome day with the family, would have no issues returning in the future. Very friendly and courteous staff, easy to find and park. The course is fun, and the viewing area is great. We hired the double seat kart so our 9 year old could experience the thrill of motorsport, didn't pre-book just turned up and paid and played. Our daughter was hooked 🙂
Went to Bretagne karting with the family. Nice place, karts are looking good. English speaking staff. For the kids (-12) separate karts, are going a bit slower than karts for 12+. Also duo seats available.
Outstanding kart track. My 2 sons and I were here 2 years ago and came back. As good as ever. Young guy who worked here(didn't get his name) was very friendly and helpful. Great value for money. Definitely be back next we visit again from bonnie Scotland
I took my family to Bretagne Karting in Combrit and we all had an excellent time. The circuit is great and the kart are very very good. Definitely recommend it!
A good value karting venue, with an interesting track and well-kept karts. The watchtower-style upstairs bar and balcony are great for snapping photos. It can get very busy so it's best to ring in advance. It's popular with tourists from across Europe, but their spoken English isn't great, so it's best if you know some French.
Really friendly, really helpful staff. Great track, and karts were better than usually found at this sort of place. Sat on the balcony in the sun watching the karts going around drinking cold drinks in the sunshine.
Great course and well priced
Solid 10/10 Experience, I'll definitely be coming back here!

Beautiful spot fabulous wet fish shop bakery and restaurants overlooking the Port. Has a ferry crossing to Benidot
We stopped here to picnic on our way to Loire valley. It was a beautiful area. Lots of seaweed on the beach so we sat on the walls surrounding the beach. The views were stunning and there is a lovely meadow.
Beautiful, secluded bay looking over the Odet river to Bénodet. Fresh mussels in the restaurants and a small gallery to while away 30 minutes as you wait on the tiny ferry (Le Petit Bac). My kids loved skiddling for crabs and shrimp. Watch the kayakers go by and the large boats taking tourists to Îls de Glénan.
This is a beautiful little port with lovely restaurants and stunning views of the River, well worth a visit
Beautiful place took the short boat ride across from benodet only 2 euros each way lovely walk around the harbour and took the longish walk to the fort which was closed however it was a beautiful walk around the coastline with beautiful views across the bay would definitely recommend a visit
It's very pretty, has a couple of decent restaurants, café, museum and a pretty little church. Lovely spot to relax with a coffee, glass of wine or the like and just watch the world go by.
Very pretty location, lots of seats to relax, plus parking
Great little port. If you time your arrival when sailing in, you can always get a berth. Captainerie always helpful. Restaurants are packed July & August, you may need to reserve a table.

(Translated by Google) Magnificent little chapel with a frame reminiscent of a boat, like many small Breton chapels located at the water's edge. Quite particular, L-shaped, it is nonetheless very cute (Original) Magnifique petite chapelle avec une charpente rappelant celle d'un bateau, comme beaucoup de petites chapelles bretonnes situées au bord de l'eau. Assez particulière, en forme de L, elle n'en demeure pas moins très mignonne
Absolutely beautiful and surroundings too.
(Translated by Google) The Sainte Marine Chapel... It is a superb place of worship...I am delighted to see that there are still a few places open where it is possible during the day to cross the square to enter.

(Translated by Google) A very pretty chapel, very well presented. The light inside was magnificent when we passed. (Original) Une très jolie chapelle, très bien mise en valeur. La lumière, à l'intérieur, était magnifique quand nous sommes passés.
(Translated by Google) Very pretty little chapel which overlooks the sea, very well restored. Place of peace and prayer where we feel good. It is worth the cost of looking in the middle of this highly visited neighborhood. Consider stopping off at Ste Marine if you spend your vacation in Bénodet (Original) Très jolie petite chapelle qui donne sur la mer très bien restaurée. Lieu de paix et de prière où on se sent bien. Elle vaut le coût d'œil au milieu de ce quartier a visité fortement. Pensez à faire un décroché à Ste Marine si vous passez vos vacances sur Bénodet
(Translated by Google) Beautiful little chapel of Sainte Marine in its setting on the port with a beautiful wooden vault, ornate beams and ex-votos. Place of peace and true prayer ending of seafarers. Very beautiful place to see and meditate. This small chapel dedicated to Sainte-Marine, dating from the 16th century, was enlarged in the 1960s. In the old part several decorative elements: sand pits carved with boats, south door framed with fish, sailor ex-votos testify to its familiar link with the world of fishermen. cf. Life of Saint Marine taken from the Roman martyrologist entry into the monastery disguised as a boy (✝ 750) It's a beautiful story that of Marine de Bythinie, nicknamed the Disguised, who is also called Saint Marino. His father loved him, but he loved God even more. He became religious. Soon he suffered from the absence of his daughter who was then only seventeen years old. He got the Abbot to bring his “boy” to the monastery. He went to get his daughter, cut her hair, dressed her as a boy and called her Marin. Years passed and the father died. "Marin" was, one day, accused of having seduced the daughter of a neighboring hotelier who was expecting a child, actually born from one night with a soldier. “Marin” took in the child but had to live outside the monastery. Five years later, "he" was reinstated, at the request of the brothers touched by compassion at the patience of "Brother Marin" exposed to the contempt of passers-by and at his spirit of prayer and penitence. The Abbot imposed on him to sweep the monastery alone and serve them. “Marin” accepted this austerity and carried it out with courage. It was beyond his strength and “he” succumbed after a few days of illness. It was at the time of the burial that the holiness of the "sister" who had lived like a brother in the monastery was discovered. A beautiful story which was passed down when his relics were transported from Constantinople to Venice then from Venice to Paris, where a church was built in his honor. Saint Marine or Marina, entering the monastery disguised as a boy. Marine born in Bithynia in the 8th century. Her father, a widower, entered the monastery, won the admiration of his brothers with his holy life and introduced his daughter, disguised as a boy, under the name of Marin. He was a perfect monk when a slander accused him of having seduced a young girl. She did not want to justify herself by revealing her sex, and patiently underwent a harsh penance. The truth was not known until the mortuary toilet in 750. The culprit was healed by a miracle from "Marin" after her death. The relics were transferred from Constantinople to Venice on July 17. A parish in Paris once had her as its patroness. (Original) Belle petite chapelle de Sainte Marine dans son écrin posée sur le port avec une belle voute en bois, des poutres ouvragées sablières et des ex-voto. Lieu de paix et de prière véritable terminaison des gens de mer. Très beau lieu à voir et méditer. Cette petite chapelle consacrée à Sainte-Marine, datant du XVIe siècle, a été agrandie dans les années 1960. Dans la partie ancienne plusieurs éléments de décor : sablières sculptées de barques, porte sud encadrée de poissons, ex-voto marins témoignent de son lien familier avec le monde des pêcheurs. cf. Vie de Saint Marine tirée du martyrologue romain entrée au monastère déguisée en garçon (✝ 750) C'est une belle histoire que celle de Marine de Bythinie, surnommée la Déguisée, qu'on nomme aussi saint Marin. Son père l'aimait, mais il aimait plus encore Dieu. Il se fit religieux. Bientôt, il souffrit de l'absence de sa fille qui n'avait alors que dix-sept ans. Il obtint du Père Abbé de faire venir son "garçon" au monastère. Il alla chercher sa fille, lui coupa les cheveux, l'habilla en garçon et l'appela Marin. Les années passèrent et le père mourut. "Marin" fut, un jour, accusé d'avoir séduit la fille d'un hôtelier voisin qui attendait un enfant, né en réalité d'une nuit avec un soldat. "Marin" recueillit l'enfant mais dut vivre hors du monastère. Cinq ans plus tard, "il" fut réintégré, à la demande des frères touchés de compassion devant la patience de "frère Marin" exposé au mépris des passants et devant son esprit de prière et de pénitence. Le Père abbé lui imposa de balayer seul le monastère et de les servir. "Marin" accepta cette austérité et s'en acquitta avec courage. C'était au-dessus de ses forces et "il" succomba après quelques jours de maladie. C'est au moment de l'ensevelissement qu'on découvrit la sainteté de la "sœur" qui avait vécu ainsi comme frère dans le monastère. Une belle histoire qui se transmit quand ses reliques furent transportées de Constantinople à Venise puis de Venise à Paris, où on éleva une église en son honneur. Sainte Marine ou Marina, entrée au monastère déguisée en garçon. Marine née en Bithynie au VIIIe siècle. Son père, veuf, entra au monastère, fit l'admiration de ses frères par sa sainte vie et introduisit sa fille, déguisée en garçon, sous le nom de Marin. Ce fut un moine parfait, quand une calomnie l'accusa d'avoir séduit une jeune fille. Elle ne voulut pas se justifier en dévoilant son sexe, subit avec patience une dure pénitence. La vérité ne fut connue qu'à la toilette mortuaire en 750. La coupable fut guérie par un miracle de "Marin" après sa mort. Les reliques furent transférées de Constantinople à Venise le 17 juillet. Une paroisse de Paris l'eut jadis comme patronne.
(Translated by Google) Small and welcoming chapel not far from the port, stone, ancient and renovated, worth seeing. (Original) Piccola ed accogliente cappella non lontano dal porto, in sasso, antica e rimaneggiata, merita di essere vista.
