Welcome to Petit Minou en Bretagne



I moved to this lovely part of Brittany at the end of the summer in 2008 with my husband and my two daughters

We have two holiday gites and hope to have lots of visitors in the years to come

Life here is slower than it used to be in England but my days are so much busier - looking after our two Ouessant sheep, our chickens, geese, ducks and seven cats; trying out new recipes using our freshly grown veggies, trying to keep up with the weeding and the the garden and keeping the gites in tip top condition ready for our visitors

If I have any spare time I make handmade greetings cards and gifts and have just opened an Etsy shop - visit it here

I also enjoy taking photographs and have recently joined Flickr so hopefully I will post some of my shots on here too

This is intended to be my blog about our new life here in Brittany - I really must try to make time for regular updates but seem to be failing miserably

Cathédrale Saint-Samson

I seem to be on a bit of a Dol de Bretagne theme at the moment but it really is an interesting place to visit

This is the Cathedral of Saint Samson in Dol - one of the largest granite churches in Brittany - if you are wondering why it only has one tower then have a look at my previous post about the Menhir du Champ Dolent

Dol has a great Saturday morning which spreads down the main street which still has many timbered Medieval buildings which are full of character
