Le Fort de l'Océan

On the Croisic peninsula is a historical gem: for the past four centuries, this granite fort has stood guard over the moods of the sea.

The ramparts, moats and drawbridges are all still there. Built to resist storms and attacks, today, despite its stern exterior, this monument welcomes guests, and exhibits all of its charms: oak panelling, scented gardens, a sheltered swimming pool…

And a vegetable garden where the chef also grows the herbs that flavour his inventive cuisine that often includes fresh seafood.
