Le Cocon - Une Chambre Villa, Couchages 2

Le Cocon was conceived by its creative and talented owner with a vision in mind: to create a romantic hideaway cottage in Brittany for couples to escape to and enjoy each other’s company in a charming and unique setting full of inspiration and personal touches.

This quirky cottage is like a glamorous little jewellery box filled with delights for the eyes and senses… an attractive array of vintage, antique and modern pieces, all individually selected and choreographed by the owner.

But Le Cocon is not only a feast for the eye. It is also very comfortable and newly renovated. A romantic bedroom with free standing copper bath, good quality mattress and crisp hand-dyed vintage bed linen is under the eaves upstairs and oozes character. Downstairs there is a small, well-equipped kitchen and living-dining room with fireplace and sofa, perfect for lounging on whilst watching a movie. There is also a marbled wet-room with shower and loo.

Outside the pretty garden has sun loungers, table and chairs, barbecue and a double hammock for relaxing ‘à deux’.

Le Cocon is situated in the small village of Langourla in the heart of Brittany and the Cotes d'Armor region. Just a 5-minute walk away are the two local village bars and grocery store. Guests can also enjoy a beautiful restaurant just a 5-minute drive away and many more amenities in Merdrignac, just twelve kilometers away. There are plenty of local markets and medieval towns to explore, like Dinan and Moncontour.

Also within walking distance is a very beautiful lake with an Amphitheatre which hosts a famous Jazz festival in the summer as well as classical music festivals and other events throughout the year. The lake has a beach area, but the coast is only one hour away for guests who prefer the region’s wild beaches, family beaches or rugged coastline of the Emerald coast. There is also a large local forested area of 2,200 hectares where hiking, horse-riding, fishing or hunting excursions are possible.

Le Cocon is the perfect romantic bolthole for a unique and memorable stay in Brittany at any time of the year.

Little Sustainability Gems About the Property

Le Cocon sits in a marvellous spot in the heart of the charming Cotes D'Armor area of the Brittany region. Located within walking distance to the picturesque village of Langourla, the cottage is perfectly situated as a springboard for days out: everything you could possibly want is within an hour's drive. For those who fancy some relaxation by the sea, there are beautiful beaches such as Dinard, Erquy and Binic. Moreover, there are many walking paths along the Emerald coast as well as plenty of sight-seeing opportunities due to the abundance of historical villages and towns.

Less than a 5-minute drive away is Saint Launeuc, which boasts three restaurants (one offering a la carte menu with seasonal, locally sourced produce and an excellent wine list!), a creperie and a small bistro. This village is surrounded by large forested area of 2,200 hectares where one can do horse riding, biking, fishing or hunting excursions all of which can be booked through a fantastic local hotel mixing modern and traditional style. Alternatively, the owner would be delighted to make the enquiries and bookings on your behalf.
