HOW TO GET THERE
From the rest of Europe by car, train or ferry.
When you arrive in France, the French Autoroutes (toll roads) will take you right up to the borders of Brittany, from then on, the autoroutes cease to exist, they are replaced by route nationals, as good as the autoroutes, except you don't have to pay- they are all FREE!
Garages or Station Service are open throughout the day but take care as many garages which are marked 24/24 (open 24 hours) are not normally manned at night and only accept credit cards, even worse, they don't accept all credit cards so fill up while you can.
The price of petrol (essence) at present is around 0.90 Euros per litre for super, slightly less for unleaded (sans plomb). Diesel (gazole) is around 0.80 Euros per litre.
Traveling to Briitany by train will give you the chance to ride the world famous TGV. However the trains only service the large towns and buses are few and far between Hiring a car is an absolute must if you need to get around and explore.
FERRIES
Brittany Ferries run services dirctly into Brittany from Portsmouth
(U.K.) to St Malo (around 9 hours sailing) & Plymouth (U.K.) to
Roscoff . They also run services from Cork (Ireland) to Roscoff.
P&O Ferries run sevices from the U.K. into Cherbourg & La
Harve in Normandy. It is around 3-4 hour drive to central Brittany,
however the Ferry crossing time is considerably shorter (2-3) hours.
