Jean-Yves Riot
Nice sunny and refurbished apartment (65 sqm) for 2 to 4 guests, with a nice sea view. Only 150 yards from the superb sand beach of "Le Val André". Quite luminous as East, South and West facing, and with many glass doors and windows. Pretty sunny and sheltered terrasse, with a 6 covers outdoor table, transats and sun umbrella. From this terrasse you will enjoy a large view on the "St Brieuc bay", the changing colors of sea & sky, the incessant tides motion, and...the sunsets ! The residence is quite quiet and ideally located : - on 2nd floor, with a lift - 1 free carpark place is dedicated to this apartment, just downstairs - a small park is surrounding the residence You can yourself decide the configuration : for 2 guests, with a double lounge / library for more comfort, or for 3 to 4 guests, the 2nd lounge becoming a second private bedroom then. Inside, you will enjoy resting, reading, listening to music, playing games, cooking and tasting the delicious seafood and other local products. Ideal central point to discover the magnificient "Emeraude Coast". Travel light ! All household items and comfort equipment there ! Cosy decoration inspired by my trips.

I do like to welcome new guests the same way as I do like myself to be welcomed by hosts for my numerous travels in France or abroad.
