A busy eco-museum featuring lots of summer activities based across two sites: a historical milling village and a country house 12 km away.
Tucked away in the bottom of a valley and uninhabited since 1965, the hamlet of Kerouat is a testament to central Brittany's old country way of life. Some 15 buildings form this milling village, now a moving monument to the past and a lovely place to take a stroll. Walk into the houses, bakehouses, stables, cattle sheds etc. Then visit the orchard, kitchen garden and 12 hectare wood, where a tannery and windmill can be found. Craftsmen are present all year long to share their traditional techniques: from milling and baking to working with slate. Around 15 minutes away by car is the Cornec de Saint-Rivoal country house. Here, you can picture how an affluent 18th-century family would have lived in the countryside around the Monts d'Arrée mountains. A time when people and livestock still lived under one roof… -
