Lunch with a view

We drove to the lovely Port Manech in Brittany today and followed the signs for la plage, we were on our way to the beach! After a morning spent paddling in the water and sunbathing on the beach I had worked up an appetite. We went in search of lunch and we didn't have to go very far at all, in fact we walked a couple of steps from the sandy beach and straight into a restaurant called La Châtaigneraie.

It was in an amazing location overlooking the beach. We sat on the terrace and looked out at the sandy beach, it was a superb view! I felt like I could sit there all day looking out to the sea.

For lunch I had crêpes, the food was delicious! I sat and made a quick sketch of the view in my sketchbook using a fine liner pen.

When I returned to the gîte this afternoon I added a light coat of watercolour to my sketch.

This is definitely a location I'm going to try and go back to, an amazing beach and great food! What more could I ask for?

Have a beautiful day!

That looks like a beautiful place to relax and recharge. The fact that they have crepes makes it all the better. : )

I try to recharge on crepes and ice cream whenever possible!

They are both tasty fuel.
