This charming little seaside cottage is situated on the edge of the busy little seaside town of Saint Marc sur Mer which is famous for being the setting for the Jacques Tati film, Monsieur Hulot’s Holiday. The property is in an excellent position for a beach holiday just cross the road to a beautiful sandy cove.

The house has been prettily restored, and superbly furnished with many objets d’art from the 1930’s, by the French owner who lives next door.

The house is less than 1k from the village centre, with a very pleasant coastal walk, where there are good shops and excellent restaurants. There are a few beaches within walking distance: as well as the local beach which is accessible down some steps, the main beach at St Marc sur Mer is very good with a café and a restaurant overlooking it. La Baule is about 7k, with its famous crescent beach voted one of the best in the world The town is lively by day and by night offering all water sports, golf, polo, horse-riding, casinos and an excellent range of restaurants. There is plenty to visit in this part of Brittany without driving far: the walled town of Guérande, La Grande Brière (wildlife reserve), the port of Le Croisic, the salt marshes and fishing villages such as Piriac sur Mer.

A spacious modern villa, overlooking the coast, on the unspoilt but magnificent Crozon peninsula, one of our favourite areas in Brittany. Sweeping sandy beaches, coastal walking and close to Morgat, a lovely seaside town.

A truly beautiful Breton peninsula, Crozon, has magnificent beaches and great scenary. A great holiday location. The sea lashes at spectacular cliffs and clues of it’s earlier occupation gives the gently rolling countryside a powerful sense of history. Crozon’s four bracing headlands give fine panoramic views over the Atlantic and other Finistere points. The excellent holiday town of Morgat offers good local shopping watersports and cave exploration both by sea and on foot. Crozon itself has a lively seasonal market, an indoor swimming pool and tennis courts. The quiet seaside resort of Camaret sur Mer with sandy beaches, surfing and clear blue water is close to dramatic coastal scenery.
