Château Richeux
Literary-coastal Breton character. Think antique furniture in soft, sea-washed colours, wind rattling the windows, a lounge built for evening grogs by the fire, and a family running the whole operation with genuine passion rather than corporate polish.
Book your Le Coquillage table separately from your room — and book it well in advance. The restaurant is not automatically accessible to hotel guests.
Why It Matters
Two MICHELIN Keys hotel; Le Coquillage holds three Michelin stars (2025) and a Michelin Green Star (2020). Relais & Châteaux member since 1989. The entire estate — bakehouse, spice shop, working farm, Bains Celtiques — is a single, coherent creative vision from the Roellinger family. No other hotel in Brittany matches this combination of gastronomy and place.
A large 1920s villa perched on moorland above the Bay of Mont Saint-Michel, 5 km from Cancale. Twelve rooms and two apartments make up the main house, and the ground floor opens onto Le Coquillage — a three-Michelin-star restaurant (as of 2025) led by chef Hugo Roellinger. The wider estate includes the Ferme du Vent cottages, the clifftop Les Rimains hotel, Bains Celtiques spa, a working kitchen garden, wood-fired bakehouse, orchard with livestock, and the family's spice emporium.
Where You'll Stay
2 room types available
Apartment
Two luxurious, spacious apartments within the château building. Described as cosy yet refined with panoramic bay views. More generous in scale than the standard rooms.
Bay View Room
One of eleven spacious rooms in the château villa, all facing the bay. Interiors blend the house's original 1920s character — some pieces are from the original house, others sourced from antique dealers — with contemporary comfort. Soft or vivid colour palettes. The sea is always in view.
