Location - Travel

The workshop will take place in the beautiful Morbihan gulf in Brittany- France- on the Berder Island.

Berder is a tiny island, near Larmor-Baden, accessible by foot when the tide is low. A shuttle boat is available to access the island otherwise.
The only building on the island is a XIXth century manor transformed by the “LVT Ile Berder association” to welcome families, schools and professional meetings.
Housing comprises single and double rooms (students may have to share rooms). Comfort is limited - but acceptable - and allows the guests to benefit from the wonderful scenery of one of the most exotic of the 60 islands of the Morbihan gulf.
