Lovely! We love the area, having taken the Plymouth to Roskoff ferry last
year and spent a week in the area. Looking forward to using the Weymouth to
Cherbourg ferry if it starts next year.
Also I worked with people from our Lannion R&D facility and stayed there in
the Printania Hotel in Perros Guirec many times.
But if I may say, I find some of the first few a little under-exposed?
