At the gateway to an authentic Bigouden region

At Jardin Saint Germain, the journey begins in Plogastel-Saint-Germain, in the heart of the Pays Bigouden, where land and ocean are in constant dialogue. Here, sunken lanes lead to secluded chapels, charming villages, and landscapes sculpted by the wind. Guests explore a region deeply rooted in its traditions, between Fest Noz and Fest Deiz, moments of sharing where music and dance tell the story of the Breton soul. Further afield, the powerful waves of the Bay of Audierne attract thrill-seekers and lovers of wide-open spaces, while the ever-present nature invites you to slow down and contemplate.
