Ker Gonan

Set on the Nau beach in Le Pouliguen, life at Ker Gonan – which means ‘The Great Burrow’ in Breton – feels like being on a boat. The stunning, classic Breton stone property spread over two floors. As part of the Maison Estran collection, collection, known for its exceptional coastal homes, Ker Gonan welcomes up to height guests with a host of thoughtful services for a truly unforgettable vacation. After their success with Il Polpo Nero in Sardinia where Lola and her family brought new life to an architect-designed house amidst a lush Mediterranean garden, it’s Atlantic Coast’s charm that now takes center stage.

On the ground floor, guests can roam freely between the living room, the fully equipped kitchen, the charming “cabinet of curiosities,” the garden, and the beach—within a few steps. The first floor features a music area for enthusiasts – pianists will enjoy playing on a grand piano with a view of the sea, a well-stocked library, and a spacious master suite with a terrace offering breathtaking sea views. On the second and top floor, you’ll find three bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. A true haven for family and friends, perfect for gathering every vacation, enjoying long afternoons on the beach, and sharing aperitif on the terrace.

The estran—the coastal stretch between the highest and lowest tides—is a space in constant flux, alternately submerged and revealed by the sea. This dynamic connection to the water serves as the inspiration behind Lola and her family’s properties.

Each home is intimately tied to the sea, both geographically and spiritually. “Our homes are never far from the water, and while they stand firmly on land, their connection to the ocean’s quiet depths goes far beyond interior design.” Here, creativity and serenity take center stage, with books, musical instruments, and objects that each tell their own story.

The Maison Estran experience is all about thoughtful details and guest well-being. “Honesty bar, Land Rover Defender available for rent to explore the (very beautiful) La Baule region, boat trips, visits to the salt marshes and local vineyards, or yoga sessions with ocean views—whatever you wish for, just ask, and you’ll be pampered!
