Frequently asked questions

Can we accommodate a large guest list?

The venue handles 20–150 guests. The dining room and outdoor terrace scale to different party sizes, though you'll want to confirm exact capacity during consultation.

Is the location accessible for elderly guests?

Being perched on a promontory means elevation changes. Confirm parking and building access directly with the hotel, as coastal properties often have uneven terrain.

What's included in the catering package?

The restaurant offers full meal service; menus and pricing vary. Contact them directly for package details, wine selection, and dietary accommodation options.

What's the weather like for an outdoor ceremony?

Brittany's coastal climate is unpredictable April–October. Wind and rain are common; discuss backup indoor ceremony space and weather contingency plans with the venue.

Can we hold rehearsals or welcome dinners here?

Yes—the restaurant and guest rooms make multi-event weekends feasible. Coordinate timing and room block availability well in advance.
