Le Légué, Saint-Brieuc's harbour atmosphere

Formerly the fishing port of Saint-Brieuc, Le Légué is now a well-known part of the town. A number of houses have been renovated and the yachting industry is growing steadily.

Le Légué lends itself well to a pleasant stroll along the quays.

To discover the charms of Le Légué, take a loop that links the two communes of Plérin and Saint-Brieuc.

Starting from the Place de la Résistance, you can admire the colourful, restored former shipowners' houses.

You'll also find a number of shops and restaurants toliven up the area.

Next, head for the Pont de Pierre. From here, you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the port and the Gouët viaduct.

The latter towers 70 metres above the estuary. The viaduct was inaugurated in 19683 and is now the expressway linking Brest to Rennes and crossing Saint-Brieuc.

On the Saint-Brieuc side, discover the Carré Rosengart. This former factory (building outboard motors) now houses an exhibition centre, workshops and a restaurant.

In summer, a small market is held every Thursday morning on the quayside. Yet another reason to come and discover this district with its very special atmosphere!

A number of places make the Légué district particularly attractive!

For a lunch break, stop off at the Aux Pesked restaurant. The setting of this modern address is remarkable.

The large bay windows overlooking the green Gouët valley are an added bonus!

As an added bonus, the exceptionally fresh seafood is wonderfully revisited. There is also a car park for restaurant customers.

Another must in the Légué district (Plérin sector) is the Portland by Nicolas Adam bakery and patisserie. This unusual venue is also a trattoria and tea room.

Open every day except Monday.

If you want to stay close to the Le Légué district, the Grand loft holiday home with Jacuzzi and home cinema is ideal.

This vast single-storey loft has been completely renovated. It spans more than 120 m², with two large bedrooms that can sleep up to 8 people.

In fact, it's a former printing works, which gives this holiday home a remarkable cachet!

The renovation and modern feel of the structure will delight architecture fans!

There is also private parking on site.
