Hébergements Insolites de Quénécan

It's an easy stroll from here to Forges des Salles, the restored 18th-century iron manufacturing village viewable from the site. Once home to one of the biggest woodfired forges in Brittany, it still stands as it did when production stopped in 1877: take a guided tour or potter around under your own steam to see the furnace, coal stores, workers' houses and other village necessities like the stables, gardens, school and shop. Within a few kilometres is Bon-Repos Abbey, a famed 12th-centruy Cistercian site overlooking the Nantes-Brest canal. Tours are available in French and English, and the abbey's also home to regular art exhibitions, summer events and a weekly farmers’ market. Guerlédan lake has boat, kayak and pedalo hire, as well as restaurants, beaches and moorings from its main town of Beau Rivage on the north bank. Heading south back to your treehouse base, the GR 37 and GR 341 trails meandering through the forest are accessible to walkers from March to October. For day trips, Dinan, Saint-Malo and department capital Rennes are under two hours' drive away. You could also have a hair-raising adventure day at KINGOLAND about 50 minutes' drive away, the theme park with rollercoaster and water rides.
