La Metairie is situated in the Blavet Valley which is an area of outstanding natural beauty. The historic towns of Pontivy and Vannes are within easy driving distance as is the world famous town of Carnac with its hundreds of megaliths. More locally can be found Poul Fetan which is a reconstruction of an 18th Century Breton Village and practically on our doorstep is the Village de l'an mille which recreates Breton life of 1000 years ago. For fishing and cycling enthusiasts there are many places to fish and cycle in beautiful countryside.
The beautiful Lac de Guerledan offers swimming, sailing, fishing and watersports and also has beaches along the lakeside. The small town of Melrand has local shops and an excellent restaurant which was formerly a 13th century coaching inn.
There is a huge market held weekly in the historic town of Auray and it is a must to visit the historic port of St Goustan with its timbered houses, galleries and seafood restaurants.
