End of the earth is a stone’s throw away
A stone's throw from the sea, located in the historic hamlet of Lochrist, the Gîte de la Grève Bleue has been carefully designed by Anne and Frédéric, who will welcome you there with pleasure to allow you to spend an ideal holiday in the Pays d'Iroise. .
The house, set in the middle of a large private garden, has been entirely designed for long stays, with an attentive welcome for people with reduced mobility: a large kitchen equipped to share good times with family or friends, 4 beautiful welcoming rooms and little nooks suitable for all generations.
Just near, the golden cliffs of Pointe St Mathieu, swept by the wind and shaped by the sea, and the Port of Conquet, the gateway to the islands of Molène and Ouessant, conceal wonders to discover, on foot, on horseback or by bicycle, in the heart of the Iroise Marine Natural Park.
Le Conquet joins "les Petites cités de caractère" group, for its remarkable heritage

La Pointe Saint Mathieu, en Plougonvelin
Pointe St Mathieu is emblematic of North Finistère: located at the South West point of Pays d'Iroise, 2.5 km from the cottage, it takes you to the end of yourself:
- higher (lighthouse culminating at 37 m, remains of the Maurist abbey, military semaphore
- further on (240 ° panorama over the sea and in good weather to Pointe du Raz
- deeper (museum 39-45 in a bunker and Cenotaph dedicated to the sailors who died for France)
