Breteil Car Boot Sale & Flea Market

Treasure Hunting in the Presbytery Garden

The Breteil street sale and car boot sale offers a unique and charming setting: the presbytery garden, a shaded green space in the heart of the village, hosts individual exhibitors for a day of outdoor treasure hunting. Pitches are available for 3 euros per meter, a modest price that encourages participation. Stalls are set up among the trees and flowerbeds, offering clothes, toys, books, crockery, trinkets, and everyday items. Vendor setup begins at 6 am, and the first bargain hunters are not far behind, browsing the aisles.

The Communal Committee in Charge

The Breteil communal committee organizes this street sale with care, ensuring the preservation of the event's intimate and friendly character. Reserved for individuals only, the event excludes professionals to maintain its authentic car boot sale spirit. On-site, a refreshment stand and a food stall offer the essential galettes-saucisses, crepes, and drinks. The atmosphere is good-natured, typical of this rural village where neighbors meet for a drink between finds.

A commune of 3,000 inhabitants located on the Rennes-Montfort-sur-Meu axis, 20 kilometers west of the Breton capital, Breteil is a peaceful village with a rich religious heritage. The presbytery and its garden, witnesses to parish history, offer an ideal setting for this rustic street sale. The commune, crossed by the Flume river, has a preserved natural environment that appeals to lovers of calm and greenery.
