About this property

Set within a 12-hectare estate, this 19th century manoir in southern Britanny welcomes up to 10 guests across its beautifully designed interiors and glorious gardens with a heated swimming pool and tennis court.

Once a hunting lodge, the residence dates back to early 1800s – it was built on the site of a Breton château that was destroyed in the 15th century. Having undergone a recent architect-led renovation, this stylish French manor house still exudes historic character and charm whilst also offering contemporary living in fine surroundings.

Step into the grand hallway before admiring the large living room and open-plan dining area for sociable meals in this impressive space. The kitchen is fully-equipped to a high standard and the breakfast room is the perfect spot for your morning baguettes, croissants, fruit, yoghurts and fresh eggs from the farm (breakfast is complimentary each morning).

Manoir De La Côte’s first floor is home to three elegant bedrooms, each one featuring a queen-size double bed and en suite bathroom. There’s also a study here in case you need to work during your stay – high-speed Wi-Fi is another great feature. Meanwhile, the top floor features a fantastic lounge with a Smart TV and soundbar,  table football, next to the family en suite bedroom (with a double and two single beds).

Across the gardens, discover the private tennis court, boules pitch and a heated swimming pool which is enclosed, allowing swimming throughout the season (approximately April to October) – the doors can be opened on the garden side. The estate’s meadows, forest and wetlands are wonderful to explore.

It's hard to imagine wishing to leave your vast estate, however there is so much to experience across this part of southern Britanny. Soak up the charm of riverside Hennebont with its famous medieval market and Le Haras National d’Hennebont, and visit the daily fish market of Lorient, France’s second largest fishing port with a rich maritime heritage.

Then there’s the glorious coastline whether you are seeking the turquoise-coloured sea of Plage du Pérello or wilder Atlantic shores for a range of watersports. For a truly idyllic day out, take the ferry to the island of Groix for cycling trails, coastal walking paths, fascinating nature and more picture-perfect beaches.

Manoir De La Côte is located within a 12-acre estate of meadows, forests and wetlands, less than a 10-minute drive from the medieval town of Hennebont and only 12km from Lorient in the Morhiban department of Britanny.

The pretty town of Hennebont (4km) is loved for its fantastic market that takes place on a Thursday morning, one of the most famous markets in the region that dates back to the middle ages. By the banks of the River Blavet, it’s a joy to potter around the historic lanes, visit its ramparts, walk around the botanical park and tour Le Haras National d'Hennebont, a must for horse-lovers.

Lorient (12km) is a vibrant port city offering a perfect blend of maritime heritage and modern charm. For history lovers, Lorient's rich past, marked by its role in the World War II and its Celtic culture, provides plenty to explore. Meanwhile, admire its bustling harbour, discover the fascinating Cité de la Voile Eric Tabarly, or wander through the delightful streets of the city centre. The fish market takes place every morning and look out for a wider range of stalls on Wednesday and Saturdays before lunchtime.

Local specialities include oysters, fresh scallops, Kouign-amann, delicious crepes and sparkling cider. During the summer season, weekly markets take place in the evening in Port-Louis, Larmor-Plage and Ploemeur, a wonderful way to soak up the summer ambience of southern Britanny.

The nearby beaches, such as Larmor-Plage (17km) and Plage du Pérello (21km), invite relaxation with glorious sands and clear waters. At various spots along the coast, there’s a wide range of watersports such as surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing or come across wilder beaches with vast sand dunes and beautiful scenery.

Boat trips depart Lorient to the island of Groix, around 45 minutes away, for an incredible day of bird-watching, stunning beaches, walking along coastal paths, making the most of the cycling routes and learning all about the island’s rich heritage as you explore.

Further afield, head to the historic town of Vannes (54km), the gateway to the Gulf of Morhiban, be enchanted by the pre-historic standing stones of Carnac (44km) and drive all the way to the Quiberon peninsula with its magnificent coastline.
