For Sky Watchers

Resting on the Côtes-d'Armor, this sunny apartment boasts beautiful views over the Bay of Saint-Brieuc. Only a six-minute stroll from the Casino Val André, you'll have easy access to the restaurant-dotted promenade here. Alternatively, go shopping at one of the local morning markets, then soak up the spectacular seascape at the Chemin de la Pointe de Pléneuf observation deck.

From the moment you step inside, this bright home welcomes you in with its floor-to-ceiling windows and an open-plan layout. For breakfast, wander into the sleek kitchen and indulge your sweet tooth by sharing a plateful of French pastries. Then, hop under the rain shower before heading out to explore the vicinity. When you return, unwind on your southwest-facing balcony with a cup of coffee in hand. After dark, the DVD player promises great movie nights, and this telescope might just tempt you to stargaze. Before drifting off to sleep, take a book from the shelf and switch on the reading lamps.
