It may not be far away across the water, but there is definitely something special about being in another country, the local cultures and flavours are a refreshing change from home.<\/p>\n<p>Locally sourced foods and styles of cooking are different from your normal diet, plus local wines and Breton cider, what more could you want?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rennes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rennes has the distinction of recently being voted as the best French city for quality of life. This is not hard to imagine when you see its historical town squares, gardens and old cobbled streets. It has a cosmopolitan air about it, and you will not be stuck for interesting up market shops, bars and boutiques, not forgetting the Michelin starred restaurants.<br \/>\nThe farmers\u2019 market in the Place des Lices is well worth investigating, for the abundance of incredible produce on display, much of which later ends up in Bistro cuisine. You&#8217;ll find contemporary works of art scattered all over the city of Rennes. They&#8217;re extremely original, and although some are discreetly positioned, others are put there to astound.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Nantes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nantes has become one of the most dynamic cities in Brittany. It hosts a prodigious amount of modern architecture. During the course of the year Nantes holds lots of artistic and cultural events, including the madcap \u201cFolle Journ\u00e9e\u201c, other more sober classical music festivals, street theatre with large giants, modern art permanently on display in the open, and even the \u201cMachines de l\u2019\u00efle\u201c , mechanical animals, that have to be seen to be believed.<\/p>\n<p>Both these beautiful Breton cities are crying out to be explored and thanks to Flybe can now be reached directly from Manchester Airport.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is now even easier to enjoy the delights of Brittany this summer.
