Art for Alfresco Lunch's Sake!
If you're in Brittany between June and the end of September then you just must pay a visit to La Gacilly. We managed to skilfully ignore it for years but now we've put that right by visiting 4 times in two of our stints at the house. It's a town that just loves to put on a show... When it's cold they knit jumpers for the trees! And, when the weather is good they honour parfumier Yves Rocher (because this is his birthplace) with a photographic exhibition that showcases the town, it's alfresco dining opportunities and dozens of the world's most interesting photographers... Fair to say, being creatures of habit, we will always be prepared to wait for a table at the restaurant Au Bout du Pont ... Check it out...Not to be missed. I have been known to make a slightly barbed joke that if it was mirrored in UK terms it would be Anita Roddick, Littlehampton, The Body Shop, and Fred's Fish & Chip Café (which is actually probably the best chip shop on the planet)..
