Don't expect to be here long! We were here for just under an hour.
There are toilets but no cafe (not needed as there are so many eateries in Roscoff).
Adults entry fee €5, students entry fee €3 and children aged 10 and under are free (Aug 2023).
I liked it because I'm interested in the history of places we visit, but just don't expect to fill your day here!
One minor issue: no soap in the toilets and after asking still no soap!
