Ty Mad

Douarnenez - Finistère - Brittany

Seaside

Number of rooms: 15

Ty Mad is a charming hotel in Douarnenez – a renowned Breton sea port – that dates back to the twenties when celebrities such as Picasso, Breton and, especially, Max Jacob were frequent visitors. It features 17 bedrooms –11 of which facing the sea over the beach of Saint-Jean. This is an eclectic and artistic hotel (painters and sculptors exhibit here) with a quaint mixture of furniture that includes items that are handmade, contemporary and even Chinese. Ideal for organized thematic groups on subjects such as painting, photography or nautical sports. It’s a quiet place where, as Jacob used to say “one wakes up with the singing of birds”. The dining room is simply delightful and apart from serving splendid “gourmand” breakfasts by a sunny bay window, dinners are prepared every day with fish freshly bought at the harbour – except Sundays when it’s “curry day”. The owners, Arnaud and Armelle Raillard, have converted this old presbytery into something really special. Besides sailing and other seaside sports, tennis and horse riding can be practiced within the vicinity. We are at the fringe of Douarnenez, therefore we can always explore this fishing village of 20,000 inhabitants that boasts sardine and herring canneries – something slightly unusual. There are a several small restaurants serving the best seafood in France. Ty Mad is a marvellous place to stay.
