La Maison des Embruns
Coastal modernist meets warm Breton hospitality. Clean lines, woven nautical textiles, Muzzü eco-cosmetics in every room, and a library lounge with a wood-burning insert for stormy evenings. Adults only, intimate, deliberately quiet.

Why It Matters
Listed in both the Michelin Guide and Tablet Hotels. The location is exceptional — steps from the GR34 coastal path, with direct sight lines to the islands of Ouessant and Molène. Yann's cooking background means breakfast and the weekly table d'hôtes are genuinely worth staying for.
La Maison des Embruns — 'seaspray house' — is a sleek, architect-designed B&B sitting practically on top of the Iroise Sea at the western tip of Finistère. Owners Yann and Laurence (with 40 years of restaurant experience between them) built this place from scratch, designing every detail themselves with the help of Biscotte Design Studio. Four rooms, a heated outdoor pool with sea views, and a table d'hôtes that draws on hyperlocal Breton producers — it punches well above its size.
Where You'll Stay
4 room types available
Chambre Double — Vue Mer avec Balcon
On the first floor, this room has a private balcony with a straight-on view of the Iroise Sea. Warm colours, careful detailing, and the same Queen-size bed and Muzzü eco-cosmetics as every room here. Air conditioning included.
Queen (160x200cm) · 19 sqm
Chambre Double — Vue Mer avec Terrasse
Ground-floor room opening directly onto a private terrace facing the Iroise Sea. Same warm-but-modern aesthetic as the rest of the house, with the added bonus of stepping straight outside in the morning.
Queen (160x200cm) · 19 sqmChambre Double — Vue Mer Latérale avec Terrasse
The largest room in the house at 21 m², on the ground floor with a private terrace and a lateral sea view. The extra floor space makes a real difference — there's actual room to move around. Same finishes and inclusions as the other rooms.
Queen (160x200cm) · 21 sqm
Chambre Double — Vue sur Piscine
Set in the annex of the house (separate outbuilding), this is the most affordable-feeling option — no air conditioning, no direct sea view, but you get direct access to the main terrace and pool, and the pool itself looks out over the Iroise. Good choice for anyone planning to spend their days outside rather than in the room.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.
The beaches of Trézien are 300m from the front door — easy walk, no car needed. Wild, uncrowded Atlantic beach with turquoise water in good weather.
Yann and Laurence can advise on cycling routes to Le Conquet (12km), Pointe Saint-Mathieu, and Porspoder. The roads through the Iroise cape are low-traffic and extremely scenic.
Ferries to Île d'Ouessant depart each morning from Le Conquet, 12km away. The crossing takes about an hour. Ouessant is one of France's most remote and atmospheric islands — lighthouse, black sheep, and serious seabird colonies. Yann and Laurence can advise on planning the day.
The famous GR34 long-distance coastal path runs directly past the property. Head east toward Porspoder or west toward the Pointe de Corsen lighthouse (20 minutes on foot). Dramatic cliff scenery, white-sand coves and open Atlantic views in both directions.
The 10m x 3.5m outdoor pool is heated to 27°C and open from May to September. Sea views from the pool deck. Sun loungers provided.
