Sculpted Rocks

Sculpted Rocks: Brittany

Moments from the Emerald Coast, this contemporary home offers the perfect base for those seeking a retreat just outside of Saint-Malo but still within a short drive. With a minimalist style, plush furnishings and a light-filled interior, this coastal gem is the perfect space to return to after a day hiking the local trails and exploring the historic site of sculpted rocks.

Inside, you'll find a crisp white colour palette with cooling grey accents and poppy orange textures. Pop open a bottle of Chenin Blanc and soak up the summer sun from your private terrace after a long day hiking the 10km cliffside path towards the tip of Grouin. Sample some delights of your location and rustle up a dinner of local scallops and share conversations around the dining table long into the evening. You’ll fall blissfully asleep in the simple and serene bedroom – the waves just beyond your window.

Location-wise, you're a short walk from the shoreline, where you can spend days on the sands of Plage du Val. We also recommend a day trip into the city to soak up the local culture – we suggest the Gothic-style Saint-Malo Cathedral and the 18th-century privateer’s museum, La Demeure de Corsaire.
