Today, the manor offers magnificent views over the banks of the Nantes-Brest canal and its meticulously landscaped grounds, where majestic peacocks and felines roam freely. Located at the edge of walking paths and within an hour's drive from both the northern and south-western coasts, it is ideally situated for those wishing to enjoy the Pontivy area, as well as explore the numerous tourist attractions of Brittany.
