St Malo

Saint-Malo is a port city in Brittany, in France’s northwest. Tall granite walls surround the old town, which was once a stronghold for privateers (pirates approved by the king). The Saint-Malo Cathedral, in the center of the old town, is built in Romanesque and Gothic styles and features stained-glass windows depicting city history. Nearby is La Demeure de Corsaire, an 18th-century privateer’s house and museum (Google)

This is another great spot to visit whilst in Brittany. You can walk the ramparts around the old city, wander in and out of the shops and cafes that line the narrow streets.

We visited straight after being at Cancale (see previous blog) and still being in the mood for sea food we opted for Moules (Muscles) cooked in a cream sauce. I have to say they were quite yummy.

Saint Malo old town has plenty of parking available, be patient at the entrance to them, you will eventually be let in to find a park.

Again another fantastic Meander in the sun. Well worth a visit.
