Our accommodation was perfectly situated close to the town centre and had everything that we needed. It was light, airy and comfortable. The host gave us the keys early as our ferry arrived at 8am and the previous tenants had left the day before, which was very kind. The small enclosed garden was a suntrap and safe for a four year old. There is a secure garage in which to park your car. We had a roof box, so couldn't fit, but had no trouble finding spaces in the free parking close by. The only issue for others might be the narrow stair and low ceilings upstairs. There is a double bedroom and bathroom downstairs with plenty of headroom though.
A small beach is literally seconds away from the front door and the life guard patrolled beach with concrete tide pools, toilets and a café is just 4 minutes' walk. The beaches are brilliant for rock-pooling and will keep small children (and big kids) occupied for hours. We found hermit crabs, shore crabs, little fish, anemones, shrimps and a variety of sea snails. The tide pool is great for children too, and has warmed up a bit by early evening if the tides are right for it to have had an afternoon in the sun.
Roscoff town is lovely, and full of decent restaurants and little shops within 10 minutes' walk of the accommodation. The architecture is beautiful; narrow cobbled streets with ancient buildings interspersed with little turrets and towers, and there's plenty to see and do. The free bus has a stop close to the accommodation and goes every 15 minutes throughout the summer, looping all around the town from the ferry port to the centre. The Bay of Morlaix boat trip and the exotic gardens (on the route of the free bus) are definitely recommended. Small children can be entertained on the permanent merry-go-round at the harbour 'Le Petit Manege Du Port', which has the bonus of the opportunity to win a free go. We were blessed with the weather, so we didn't look for indoor entertainments, or travel far, but there appeared to be plenty on offer.
The E Leclerc supermarket in Saint-Pol-de-Leon is just 10 minutes' drive away and has an incredible selection of seafood. We can also recommend the pastries, cakes and Dijonnaise sausages. If you are car-less, the free bus goes to the Casino supermarket in Roscoff, and the town centre has bakeries and an epicerie. We would come back again to both the accommodation and the town, and recommend them to anyone looking for a holiday.
