| Cycling | We are keen cyclists and can help you plan routes to interesting places nearby. If you haven’t cycled for a while, Henry will take you out for a spin to help you find your cycling legs again!
There are numerous little lanes and tracks to follow close to "La Ferme de la Baie" - and the Polders are ideal for cycling along with children because they are completely flat.
Bring your own bicycle, or hire one from us and we’ll make sure it is set up to suit you. A child seat, helmets and panniers are also available at no extra cost. |

| Golf | There are three golf courses within a 30-minute drive of "La Ferme de la Baie" and we will happily arrange your games for you there before you arrive.
Dinard Golf Club is the second oldest links course in France; St Malo’s Le Tronchet Golf Club is a championship course set in 250 acres; Domaine des Ormes Golf Club is in the grounds of a fabulous château. |

| Donkeys | It’s novel, but the local donkey sanctuary has various activities on offer.
The donkeys love being taken for a walk and pulling carriages with children inside - and being petted by visitors of all ages, of course! With enough notice, the sanctuary will even bring the donkeys to you at "La Ferme de la Baie"! |

 |
| Walking | As well as being close to one of the GR routes, there are numerous marked walks through the countryside close to "La Ferme de la Baie".
Stroll along the cliffs towards either Cancale or Granville, or meander along the Polders enjoying the coastal scenery. Guided walks across the bay of Mont-St-Michel can be booked all year round and are generally done barefoot so that you can wade through several shallow rivers along the way! |
