Citadelle de Port-Louis

Reviewed By 818caroleb - Greater London, United Kingdom

We made an unplanned visit to the Citadel today, as we were in Port Louis in the wind and rain.What a great find, an amazing architectural structure, renovated to an exceptional standard, but still retaining the atmosphere of a historic military base. The audio guide was available in English and very informative. The three museums were great added value, the main information boards also had English translations. The Life Boat exhibition was particularly interesting for any seafarers. Lots of interesting dark, damp creepy corners for youngsters to explore. Brilliant value at €8 per adult.

Remparts de Vannes

Reviewed By bonjgb1009 - Poole, United Kingdom

While we were in Vannes we couldn’t park at the Halles des Lices and being one-way the only way out was through the narrow Porte de Poterne and across the even narrower bridge to the main road. Wonderful. Not only was there cheap parking on the Rue Francis Decker but we were suddenly looking at the magnificent ramparts of the city and the ramparts gardens. The ramparts are immense and leave you a little in awe especially trying to visualise what they were like in their heyday. A fraction of the original is still intact and consist of a large section of the battlement walls, two magnificent towers, four arched entrances (portes) and the Chateau de l’Hermine. It is a must to walk the length of the walls and take in the views of the gardens and the town. They act a great viewing platform for photographs. Definitely recommended.

Ferme Fromagere de Suscinio

Reviewed By lucysN2559QM

Really lovely farm. Small and simple, cute calves to feed, watched the cows get milked at 1730 and bought some fromage blanc in their wee shop. Spent about half an hour enjoyably with our 7 and 10 year olds.
