GET STUFFED – and other advice for travel guide writers
Wendy Mewes almost bites off more than she can chew I was asked to write the new Footprint guide to Brittany in June 2009. It looked a decent contract: reasonable recompense, good expenses, and a fairly free hand for choosing my subject matter. But as is always the case with time-sensitive publications, it turned into... »

Artists in Brittany – Inspiration and Colour

I Love Brittany
For me, Brittany is the most special part of France. I have visited twice, staying in a lovely old farmhouse outside a village near Bain de Bretagne, St. Anne Sur VILAINE. The house is surrounded by trees and grassland, so we mostly sat outside, watching the deer, butterflies, birds, even bats in... »

The Legend of St Barbe’s Fountain
Isn’t it funny how there are things which you believe to be complete nonsense, until they happen to you. I’d always been sceptical of good luck charms and superstitions. You know the sort of things, kissing a rabbits foot for luck, wearing a lucky shamrock, or making a wish when you throw coins into... »
Forêt de Brocéliande and Merlin the Magician
Brittany is an area rich in myths and legends, a great number of which are connected with the famous Forêt de Brocéliande. The forest, steeped in history and folklore, covers an area of some 18,000 acres to the south west of Brittany’s capital, Rennes. Situated in the region known today as Paimpont, the forest... »
Rennes
The capital of Brittany for some 2,000 years, Rennes is a diverse and remarkable city with something to offer everyone. Approximately 75 km south of Saint-Malo and just five minutes’ drive from the Saint-Jacques airport, Rennes city centre is easily accessible.
