Coquilles Saint-Malo Saint-Malo, Brittany

Property Description

This contemporary coastal home offers the perfect base, moments from the sands of Saint-Malo’s Bon Secours Beach. With a soft nautical style, plush furnishings and a light-filled interior, this boho gem is the perfect home to return to after a day surfing and sun soaking.

Inside, you'll find shell-patterned wallpapers, natural textures and artworks inspired by this home’s coastal location. Pop open a bottle of Chenin Blanc and sink into the plump sofa with your holiday read after a day riding the surf. Next, whip up a regional dinner of local seafood that you picked up from La Place de la Poissonnerie and share conversations around the stunning glass dining table. You’ll fall blissfully asleep in the elegant bedrooms – the waves just beyond your window.

Location-wise, you're a few minutes’ walk from the shoreline, where you can spend days along the promenade sampling the local oysters. We also recommend a visit to the centre of the city to soak up the local culture – we suggest the Romanesque and Gothic-style Saint-Malo Cathedral and the 18th-century privateer’s museum, La Demeure de Corsaire.
