This contemporary high-end villa is sure to wow you in every way. With sleek design and modern interiors full of light from the floor to ceiling windows, inviting the outside in, there is ample space for guests to kick back in relaxing surroundings. Laze on the leather sofas, recline on the Le Corbusier chair or rest by the bar before heading upstairs for a game of pool. There are four lovely bedrooms, each one with their own shower or bathroom, including a unique bedroom at the top of the house with elevated views of the sea around you.
One of the most incredible features is the impressive indoor heated swimming pool, with sliding doors leading straight out to the decked terrace with sun-loungers and umbrellas. Whether a blustery day or a lazy summers afternoon, you can dip into your inviting swimming pool for the ultimate luxurious experience.
The sandy gardens, surrounded by dune plants and trellises, also feature a hot tub as well as table tennis, a swing, slide and bikes, making sure all guests, young and old, are well looked after. Indeed, the owners have added many homely touches including bathrobes as well as modern features such as Cable TV, a DVD player and a Nespresso machine. As well as providing a breakfast box filled with croissants and bread for your first morning, they can also arrange for freshly caught seafood to be delivered. Keen fishers take note that there’s a couple of Guy Cotton jackets, boots, rake and a net provided!
You can wander down the beautiful beach, known for its turquoise coloured waters and find a range of watersports for all ages from paddle boarding to windsurfing. There’s also a lovely park within walking distance with tennis courts, mini-golf and a little playground.
In this region you can also ride horses along the beach, play a round of golf with marvellous sea-views, cycle along some stunning paths or discover many wonderful hikes on amazing trails including the GR34 coastal path nearby.

Location
About the surrounding area of Le Grand BleuWith magnificent views over the dunes to the beautiful beach, you are in an envious location at Le Grand Bleu. The beach, with high and low tides, is just 50m away and within a 5 to 10-minute walk you reach a watersports centre specialising in board sports such as windsurfing and stand-up paddles as well as catamarans, fun boards and little dingy boat trips with a skipper for younger kids. There is a range of activities for lots of age groups and they offer lessons for beginners and those with more experience.
The local beach is one of the most beautiful in the area, known for its turquoise waters and during the summer they have a life guard in the afternoon. There are many other stunning sandy beaches across this region to discover as well as watersport centres in Dossen, Moguériec and Roscoff (a fantastic place for diving or sea fishing).
There is also a lovely park within a ten-minute walk which has mini-golf, tennis courts and a little playground.
Keen hikers can find many beautiful coastal walks and wild landscapes of the Breton coast or follow part of the GR34 coastal footpath nearby. There are some wonderful cycling paths, including the route from Roscoff to Concarneau for the most experienced as well as some gentler trails.
Sports lovers can have a break from the various beach-based activities to play tennis nearby, have a game of pitch and putt at the local golf course (7km) or head to the course in Carantec (22km) for a golf in a beautiful setting by the sea. There is also the possibility of riding horses along the beaches within a short drive near Saint-Pol-de-Léon or Plouescat.
For a unique experience there is even a flying club in Morlaix (34km) where you can experience the stunning region from the air! There are of course many boat excursions nearby if this is your preferred mode of transport.
Kids will love the animals at La Ferme d'Eden (16km), open from April to August, with more than 80 species of animals including reindeers and yak, which could be combined with a trip to Château de Kerjean with 19 acres of grounds. You will also find bowling and go-karting in Morlaix (34km).
The charming town of Roscoff is only 18km away with its spas for those looking thalassotherapy or enjoy some excellent restaurants with seafood soup and the Roscoff onions a speciality! From here you can also take the ferry across to the pretty island of Batz.
Morlaix (34km) is also a beautiful town to visit with half-timbered houses, historical lanes to explore, a spectacular viaduct and a delightful harbour. There’s a lovely market on a Saturday which continues throughout the year.

Region
Brittany is famed chiefly for its beaches, and with so much coastline to explore it’s certainly one of the best reasons to visit the region. But there’s more to Brittany than sun, sea and sand, and while a good chunk of our villas and chateaux in Brittany are found next to the coast the ones further inland are just as tempting. Want to get the inside scoop on Brittany before you book? You’ll find our full Brittany travel guide below, full of tips, inspiration and great things to do.

Superbe villa
Superbe semaine passée dans cette superbe villa avec une magnifique vue.Tout était au rendez vous .

Exceptional
We have been renting Le Grand Bleu for several years. The villa is just exceptional: its view is unique, and the organization of the spaces ideal. The swimming pool is of course a key part of the pleasure of being there, and what makes it really great is that it is properly heated, not just warm. The villa is rated five starts by the local tourism agency, and this is fully justified. In particular I personally appreciate that the owners constantly make sure that the standard that is proposed is maintained: appliances, furniture and utensils are replaced as soon as it needs to be. They are constantly available and really care about the quality of the stay of their guests. It really is flawless, and we highly recommend.

Wonderful week
We had a wonderful week with our 13 year old daughter in Mogueriec, the accommodation was great, the swimming pool was warm and enjoyable, the surrounding coastline is wonderful and unspoilt. Great place to stay, thoroughly recommended.
