Built towards the end of the 18th Century this magnificent property is situated between the Pink Granite Coast and the Cote Sauvage on a beautiful and dramatic stretch of the north Brittany coastline, 45 minutes’ drive from Roscoff and two hours from St Malo. This fantastic Breton house is set within partially enclosed grounds and just 150m from a wide sandy beach when the tide is out and about 20m at high tide. There are plenty of other beaches to explore including secluded coves accessible via the impressive coastal path.
Just a stone's throw away is the small seaside resort and fishing port of Locquirec, a traditional Breton village based around its harbour, with creperies, restaurants and art gallery on the seafront. The historic market towns of Morlaix and Lannion are within 30 minutes’ drive. A little further afield, the Pink Granite Coast is an incredible 30km stretch of coastline with a beguiling mix of pink tinged rocks, turquoise sea and white sandy beaches. To the west can be found the fascinating Abers - the Breton fjords, deep channels in the landscape that are ever-changing according to the tide.
Local activities include swimming, scuba diving, surfing, water skiing, canoeing, fishing, tennis and horse riding. There is a sailing school and sand yachting nearby.

Stroll across the charming Ile de Callot at low tide and discover the pretty coves and beaches scattered along its shore.
Pink Granite Coast: 31km. This fabulous coast stretches from the chic seaside resort of Perros Guirec (north-east of Locquirec) to the isle of Batz (north-west of Locquirec and opposite Roscoff). The coast magnificently lives up to its name with a pinkish colour, this coast is truly magnificent and boasts fine, sandy beaches, superb coastal walks and a natural reserve with an incredible biodiversity.

We were able to relax and enjoy the stay in your Villa Freemantle. Everything was available for a nice holiday stay. The on-site service was friendly and pleasant. We would love to come back anytime.
Guest rating:
We loved the area. The house is beautiful and very well appointed. We weren't on top of each other far from it. Small caveat, we're not sure we love the decor, but that's really okay, especially in summer. We were still surprised to find neither beach towels (usually provided in rentals of this standard), nor a landing net or shovel and bucket. Again, this is not crippling, only a little disappointing. The service was perfect, the welcome attentive. I recommend. To conclude, I will undoubtedly use your services again, but will not re-rent this house, ideally located but very very windy!
Guest rating:
We really enjoyed our stay at Villa Kastell. The house is in a unique position over the rocks, secluded yet only a few minutes walk from the village, and has a magnificent view over the sea. The house itself is spacious and characterful, and furnished to a high standard. We loved Locquirec, which is in a beautiful location and pleasantly quiet at this time of year, with several good coastal walks nearby.
Mme Vachet and her colleagues were very friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to give us some flexibility in arrival and departure times.
We're very happy with the service from Select Villas - thankyou for all your help. Please pass on our thanks to Mme Vachet and her colleagues, and to the owners for whom this house has clearly been a labour of love. We hope to return for another stay!Guest rating:
