Coastal Joy

Coastal Joy: Brittany

Located in the coastal town of Carantec, just 1km from the sandy beach, this elegant apartment embodies the timeless charm of Northern France. Beautifully decorated to suit a modern taste while maintaining classic touches, it’s the perfect place to unwind, relax, and be inspired by the calming coastal surroundings.

We love the nods to the seaside location here, from the artwork to the blue-green tones. The space exudes a calmness – you’ll love sinking into your plush sofa after a day of exploring, catching up on your current read. Equally, this is a wonderful home for socialising. The mismatched dining table has a quirkiness to it that’s inexplicably cosy, making for good-spirited home-cooked meals. Plus, you get a nice view of the sea from here.

When the view’s tempted you enough, take the short walk to the seafront for an invigorating start to the day. A coastal nine-minute walk will bring you to Kelenn beach, where you can soak up the sun in the warmer months. You can even walk to Callot Island at low tide, or take a boat trip to the enchanting Chateau du Taureau. If you’ve had your fill of nautical activities, explore the town’s charming galleries and be sure to catch the famous Thursday market.
