The house
Maisons de BricourtBreton culinary manor
Maritime breezes sweep across cliffside parkland at this 1920s manor, where quiet evenings wind down beside a crackling salon hearth.
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Breton coastal rhythms shape the stay through estate kitchen gardens and house-milled sourdough.
Notable
Granite soaking pools and Celtic marine reflexology inside a restored stone farmhouse.
What they say
Two Michelin Keys
Michelin
this lavish seaside residence lacks for nothing when it comes to atmosphere.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Perched above the Bay of Mont Saint-Michel, the grounds sit five kilometres from the oyster port of Cancale along the Breton coast.

The rooms
Bedrooms frame panoramic views across the bay, appointed in understated coastal tones with classic woodwork and soft Atlantic light.
The baths
Bring a swimsuit.
Granite soaking pools look straight out across the tidal flats, and treatments draw on Celtic and Ayurvedic marine traditions.
At the table
The estate's wood-fired oven bakes sourdough from heritage flours, served beside fresh pastries in the dining room.
How it began
Constructed as a seaside villa in the 1920s, the estate became the flagship haven for the Roellinger family's Breton culinary projects.
