Lostmarc'h is a tiny village set at the end of the Crozon peninsula, in a highly protected area of natural beauty. There are only a handful of authentic stone cottages here, and new construction has been forbidden for many decades.

A path leads directly from our garden to the cliffs and the beaches of Lostmarch and La Palue. We feel that these are amongst the very best beaches in Finistere, totally unspoilt and clean.

All this peaceful beauty can be enjoyed whilst being just 3km from the bustling seaside town of Morgat. Here you will find a huge variety of restaurants and shops and a large, sandy beach excellent for small children. There is also a port, and boat trips to see the caves.

For larger supermarkets, visit Crozon, another 2km further on, that also has large sport shops, fuel, etc.

Camaret is a pleasant harbour town; in fact the whole coastline of the Crozon is beautiful and interesting.

The fabulous, Mediterranean style beaches of Ile Vierge (see above photo) are just 3km from the house. They are a collection of sheltered coves of large rounded pebbles, with crystal clear topaz water.

Trips further afield could include, Locronan, Quimper, Douarnenez, and Oceanopolis at Brest.

Getting here is easy: Leave the motorway between Brest and Quimper and head for Morgat (about 25km) The house is about 60 minutes from Brest Airport with good links with Flybe to Birmingham, Southampton, Manchester and Exeter, and Ryanair flights to Luton airport. Roscoff is a little more than an hours drive away for ferry crossings to Plymouth, and St Malo about 3 hours for crossings to Portsmouth. There is parking within the grounds of the house.
