In Saint-Malo, in the hamlet of Saint-Étienne, this 18th-century manor house illustrates the way of life of the shipowners and privateers who grew wealthy through maritime trade. The main house, arranged around a square courtyard with its outbuildings, has kept noble rooms with original wood paneling along with family furniture and documents. The estate also holds an 18th-century horse pool and a greenhouse housing a cactus collection built up over two centuries by the same family.
