Lac de Guerledan and a slap-up evening meal

Today we decided to do a tour of the Lac de Guerledan.  We started with a coffee at Mur de Bretagne and then drove around a few stops on the way. These included Baux Rivage, Tregnanton, Ecluse de Bellvue, Bon Repos, and Anse de Sordan.

We had some nice bread, cheese, and rilletes from the market yesterday for lunch at our stop at Ecluse de Bellvue. We explored the Abbaye de Bon Repos while we were there and enjoyed a particularly good audio-visual guide provided on a tablet.  All the sites around the lake looked like they would be very busy in the summer but were pleasantly quiet at this time of the year.

After leaving the lake we drove to Pontivy for a little explore and had a wander around the castle there, Chateau de Rohan, and bought some bread for tomorrow.  We drove back into Melrand where there was a very little market (3 stalls!) and then came back to the apartment for a rest.

Our evening meal was at L’Auberge de la Tourelle which has not been open until today.  It’s definitely not high season here!  The meal was excellent.
