THE STORY: Appearing as if from a dream, Maison Roz is exactly the kind of hideaway you’d fantasize about disappearing to. Perched in the leafy heights of Riec-sur-Bélon, with a wow-factor view over the Aven River and its postcard-perfect little boats, the house has been lovingly cared for by Augustin Decaux’s family for five generations. Together with his partner, they’ve picked up the torch to keep this “seaside chalet” alive, preserving its timeless charm with a touch of design magic from their architecture studio, Wunder. The result? Bedrooms that echo the colors of the landscape (amber yellow, forest green, river blue), a cheerful, kid-friendly dorm (complete with a playroom, video projector and comfy, oversized cushions), a fully equipped shared kitchen and a self-contained cabin nestled in the garden, perfect for a bit of me-time…but not too much, because there’s also a huge terrace to enjoy and a stunning indoor pool for full-on bliss. After a stay like this, reality is bound to bite! Entire house rental (for eight adults and two children) from €750 per night. // Eddie Muffin
