Planning a company event in Brittany
Brittany gives a seminar or offsite sea air and a slower pace while staying easy to reach by high-speed train from Paris. Seaside hotels, thalassotherapy resorts and manors with rooms let a team work and stay in one place, with the coast as the main activity.
When to go
May, June and September are the easiest months: mild weather, long days and venues with availability. July and August are holiday months on the coast, when hotels are full of families. Autumn and winter suit indoor seminars with sea views, as long as the programme does not depend on the weather.
Getting the team there
Groups usually travel together by TGV from Paris to Rennes, Saint-Malo, Vannes, Lorient, Quimper or Brest. Rennes and Brest airports have some domestic and European flights, and Nantes Atlantique serves the south of the region. A coach from the station covers the last stretch.
Where teams stay
Hotels on the seafront at Saint-Malo, Dinard, Carnac or Quiberon, often with a spa or a thalassotherapy centre, handle groups well. Manors and châteaux inland can be booked whole for a smaller team. Rennes has city hotels and conference venues for larger numbers.
Activities on the coast
Sailing, sea kayaking and sand yachting are the classic team activities, along with walks on the coastal path and oyster tastings. Boat trips on the Gulf of Morbihan or to the islands fill a half-day. Keep an indoor alternative, as the weather can turn quickly.

Late spring and September offer mild weather and good availability. Summer is busy with holidaymakers, and winter works for indoor programmes in seaside hotels, with a few bracing outdoor moments.
