Château de Coët Caret

Discover between the sea and the Brière, a quiet place with a centuries-old wood

This small, 19th century château, just 15 min from the sea, lies at the heart of a 200 hectare estate surronded by the Brière Natural Park, salt marshes and two estuaries. You will receive a warm welcome from Gwenaël de la Monneraye who, helped by his wife Raphaëlle, has really thrown himself into the upkeep of this land where his family has lived since 1545. Coët Caret is an exceptionnally peaceful place, making it the ideal destination for nature lovers and the perfect spot for a relaxing stay. The bedrooms are welcoming and confortable, and they serve a traditional breakfast. The rooms are brightened up by fresh flower arrangements made by the owners. The estate is home to remarkable trees and plants. Wildlife is abundant and easy to observe.
