About Ploemel
Ploemel is a rural commune of about 3,200 people in the Morbihan, around ten minutes from Auray. The ground is low, between about 5 and 50 metres, and the coast is close: Carnac, La Trinité-sur-Mer and the Erdeven beaches are all roughly 15 minutes' drive. The homes are spread around the commune rather than grouped in the village centre. Heritage runs from prehistoric megaliths to Gothic chapels, some of them 16th-century. The Golf de Saint-Laurent sits in woodland, and there is an adventure park at Le Hahon. Evenings are quiet; there is a bar-restaurant in the village, and for a drink by the water people head to the harbours at Saint-Goustan, Étel or La Trinité.

- Best for
