Little Sustainability Gems About the Property
Everything in le Cocon is vintage, meaning that all the pieces throughout the property has had another life. Each piece of furniture has been sourced by the owner from vide greniers and brocantes, even the linen on the bed is all vintage.

Le Cocon was conceived by its creative and talented owner with a vision in mind: to create a romantic hideaway cottage in Brittany for couples to escape to and enjoy each other’s company in a charming and unique setting full of inspiration and personal touches.
This quirky cottage is like a glamorous little jewellery box filled with delights for the eyes and senses… an attractive array of vintage, antique and modern pieces, all individually selected and choreographed by the owner.
But Le Cocon is not only a feast for the eye. It is also very comfortable and newly renovated. A romantic bedroom with free standing copper bath, good quality mattress and crisp hand-dyed vintage bed linen is under the eaves upstairs and oozes character. Downstairs there is a small, well-equipped kitchen and living-dining room with fireplace and sofa, perfect for lounging on whilst watching a movie. There is also a marbled wet-room with shower and loo.
Outside the pretty garden has sun loungers, table and chairs, barbecue and a double hammock for relaxing ‘à deux’.
Le Cocon is situated in the small village of Langourla in the heart of Brittany and the Cotes d'Armor region. Just a 5-minute walk away are the two local village bars and grocery store. Guests can also enjoy a beautiful restaurant just a 5-minute drive away and many more amenities in Merdrignac, just twelve kilometers away. There are plenty of local markets and medieval towns to explore, like Dinan and Moncontour.
Also within walking distance is a very beautiful lake with an Amphitheatre which hosts a famous Jazz festival in the summer as well as classical music festivals and other events throughout the year. The lake has a beach area, but the coast is only one hour away for guests who prefer the region’s wild beaches, family beaches or rugged coastline of the Emerald coast. There is also a large local forested area of 2,200 hectares where hiking, horse-riding, fishing or hunting excursions are possible.
Le Cocon is the perfect romantic bolthole for a unique and memorable stay in Brittany at any time of the year.
