Trentemoult neighbourhood
Cross the Loire on the Navibus ferry and alight in the colourful Trentemoult neighbourhood, an old fishing village. It's a brilliantly artistic and gastronomic detour.
Locals love to come here to dine and socialise, to enjoy the vintage atmosphere and watch the sun set over the Loire. The narrow streets are bright, the buildings appear haphazardly piled together giving it a quirky charm, and it’s home to around 20 professional artists.
Le Lieu Unique
This is the only remaining tower of what was once the Lu biscuit factory, today, Le Lieu Unique is a space for individual expression. Have a drink at the bar, enjoy a night out at the theatre, browse for a book at the library or relax with a spa treatment at the hammam: www.lelieuunique.com
