Enjoy a refreshing seaside retreat with this modern apartment as your base for just a two-minute stroll down to Cancale Beach. 

Laid out as a duplex, the open living, dining and kitchen areas present a sociable space for the group to come together after spending sunny days in Brittany. 

Serve up freshly caught oysters picked up from the oyster market (only five minutes away) around the dining table, or, better still – do a tasting in front of the sea as you watch the waves lap into the shore. With the option to dine at home or eat at the local restaurants and bars, the laid-back lifestyle here offers something for everyone. 

Discover the riches of the Emerald Coast with a walk along the port of La Houle, explore the village of Cancale, or try your hand at water sports such as surfing, sailing and diving, all available locally. 


By the Oyster Market 

A stone's throw from the sandy beaches of Cancale, in the picture-pretty bay of Port Mer, this charming home offers the very best of coastal living. Boasting a gorgeous garden with plenty of cosy spots to sit down and breathe in the salty sea air, start your days with coffee on the lawn while watching the boats sail by. 

If you want to see the ocean up close, the beach is less than 1km away – take a walk down to the golden sands to discover what the famous Emerald Coast has to offer. When you're feeling peckish, Cancale oysters are a must-try. Head to one of the local restaurants or buy some from the Mont Saint-Michel oyster market and take them home to prepare yourself. We highly recommend an alfresco dinner on the terrace, washed down with a glass of French wine. When you're finished, head up to the terrace to watch the sunset – the waterfront views have to be seen to be believed. 

When darkness falls, head inside to cuddle up on the sumptuous sofa to watch a movie. If you're travelling with little ones, the mezzanine level dens are the perfect place for a bedtime story to make sure they settle in for a good night's sleep. 

Emerald Coast of Cancale

You'll find this characterful farmhouse in sweet Cancale, where fresh oysters are on the menu and Mont Saint-Michel stands proud in the middle of the bay. It's a charming little village, and you'll be well-placed to soak up its authentic Breton atmosphere. Follow the path by the house and you'll end up at Port Briac beach, while the restaurants perched along the quay in town are an excellent spot to relax with a glass of wine and breathe in the salt-tinged air. 

As undeniable as the location is, what makes this home a standout are the stunning traditional features in every room. We're smitten with the exposed stone walls and knotted wooden beams, and many cosy nooks invite you to kick back and unwind away from the group. Mealtimes are a grand affair in the dining room, with its sky-high ceilings and ornamental hearth. Tuck into a home-cooked feast made with locally-sourced seafood and produce, followed by a glass or two of Brittany's famous cider in the conservatory. During the summer, head out to the garden for sundowners and barbecues, then snuggle up for a good night's sleep in the comfortable bedrooms.

On the Half Shell

Situated in the hamlet of La Gaudichais, a short walk from Verger Beach, this vibrant family home is all about gazing seaward and unwinding in style. The interiors are contemporary-cool with stylish furnishings and punchy colour combinations. Mornings here begin with breakfast in the open-concept living space, vying for first dibs on the chantilly cream, dolloped on top of fresh crêpes. While away afternoons in the garden, snoozing in the hammocks before prepping the barbecue ahead of a late lunch. 

If exploring is on the cards, take the ten-minute drive to Cancale, famous for its oysters and shellfish. Or why not head to Saint-Malo? Walk along the city walls then visit the Chateau de St Malo. At low tide, discover the Grand Bé island. 

Return home in the early evening to unwind in your private hot tub with a glass of fizz in hand. When it’s time to call it a night, quiet bedrooms with hotel-quality beds guarantee a restful slumber.

Colour at the Seaside

Experience blissful serenity in this multi-level apartment nestled in the heart of Cancale, mere footsteps away from the ocean. Feel the essence of historic Brittany as you step inside this renovated beauty, abundant with comfort and modern charm. Immerse yourself in the spellbinding sea views from the large living area or escape to one of three comfortable bedrooms, each beautifully furnished and accented by natural light. Drift off to the lullaby of the surf from a generous terrace attached to two bedrooms. Indulge in relaxation in an open kitchen, fully cheerfully functional with tasteful appointments. A beautiful balcony ornamented with cozy furniture allows for moments of tranquil ocean contemplation. This abode ensures an intimate getaway imbued with soothing tones of French coastal life, offering both nostalgia and modern luxuries.

Emerald Bay Cocoon

In an old house right on the seafront, this little home is the perfect place to relax and recharge your batteries in Brittany. Just half an hour from Saint-Malo, the loft apartment has character features like sloping ceilings, heavy oak beams and partially exposed stone walls, but at the same time it's been modernised with a bright white paint job, herringbone wood floors and skylights. Surprisingly open and bright, we particularly love the living space with its sea view window. The kitchen is perfectly well-equipped for cooking light meals at home but it's only a five-minute walk to the town centre with its bakeries, restaurants and bars (it's known for its oysters, by the way). Keen walkers will be able to explore the local hiking trails and there are all sorts of water sports on offer nearby too.

Seaforth

Overlooking the bay of Cancale, soak up majestic sea views from every room of this home located just 800 metres away from Saussaye Beach. On a clear day, the views even stretch as far as the islands of Chausey and the iconic Mont St Michel. 

The perfect getaway for a family and those travelling with children, the home presents a large space area which frames the view like a piece of artwork at the centre of the room. Gaze out at the stillness of the sea from the window seat, and you might even wind up in a meditative state. You'll also find a cosy reading corner which invites you to select a book from the home library. 

Open up the French doors leading out onto the spectacular terrace area where the group can gather around the alfresco dining area for barbecues by the sea. When the weather is kind, what better than a spot of sunbathing on the loungers in a prime position of those glistening views? 

With a dormitory-style bedroom with six single beds, the children will enjoy sharing a room on one giant sleepover. Meanwhile, the garden shed equipped with games and bicycles will keep the whole family occupied for hours. 

After fun-filled days on the beach (you'll be just a few minutes away from the most beautiful beaches of the Emerald Coast here), the home sauna awaits for some blissful moments of relaxation. Of course, even from the sauna – you won't miss a moment away from the stunning sea view. 

An ideal base for exploring Britanny and the likes of Mont St Michel, Port Mer Beach (900 metres away) and the beach of Le Verger La Pointe du Grouin – found a fifteen-minute walk away. 



Stillness of the Sea

Very beautiful farm estate, Manoir des grands prés, from the 17th century, nestled amongst lush foliage and meadows. Located in the heart of Cancale but tucked away in a tranquil and serene setting. A true sanctuary that charms with its rustic elegance and unparalleled tranquility. The enchantment continues inside, where you'll find a spacious and modern loft adorned with tasteful furnishings. The large living/dining room features plush sofas and a flat-screen TV to relax and unwind. The well-equipped kitchen allows for culinary delights to be prepared effortlessly. Upstairs, a cozy bedroom beckons, offering restful nights amidst garden views. Step outside onto the large terrace and breathe in the fragrant scents of nature while enjoying a meal al fresco. With nearby attractions like Saint Malo intramuros and Le Mont St Michel, you'll have an enchanting escape full of memories waiting for you at this one-of-a-kind retreat.

Cosy Woodland Escape

In a peaceful hamlet in Cancale, nestled between the sea and the friendly town center lies this beautiful family home with enough space for everyone to stretch their legs. With a sizable garden and a beautiful indoor pool, you'll be able to make the most of this home whether rain or shine in the beautiful Cancale, known for its seafood delights and magnificent ports.

Spend your stay visiting beautiful Emerald Coast beaches, trying out Cancale's famous seafood, or experiencing one of several nearby ports with their own activities and beautiful nature to explore. The peaceful and practical location of this home lends itself perfectly to those wishing to go on their own excursions in the area, visiting Saint-Malo, the Mont St Michel, Port Mer and many others where you can make beautiful memories without worrying about finding yourself in the center of a tourist trap. And when you're all tired out you can return to this idyllic home and dine alfresco on the terrace at dusk, surrounded by the perfect mix of nature and modern comfort.
