Off the Beaten Track

The title is exactly what it says, you’re out of the loop – free – space and not much between you and the Americas; just the Atlantic rollers in between.

Out-of-the-way footpaths criss-cross fields and paddocks. There’s green grass grazing beside a Neolithic dolmen and a deep hidden vally – complete with bubbling brook and rustic wooden bridge.

Unusual seasonal plant life pops up everywhere along with sea holly, sea lavender and circling marsh harriers in the blue sky above.

The seashore beckons beyond the German defences of WWII to find the legend of the Lost Manoir de Brechette.
