About
The Petit Hôtel du Grand Large has changed its name without leaving Portivy. Catherine and Hervé Bourdon handed the house over to Pauline and Thomas Le Morlec, who used to work with them and now run it under the name Rivage. It keeps its 6 sea view rooms upstairs and its restaurant at 11 quai Saint-Ivy. The very small size gives it almost the feel of a guesthouse, while the cooking focuses on local produce, fishing and short supply chains.
Highlights
- A tiny gourmet address facing the harbour, combining six sea view rooms with a modern restaurant deeply rooted in local produce.
- With only six rooms, it feels particularly secluded.
- The restaurant is run by former colleagues of the previous owners.
- The Michelin Guide lists six sea view rooms upstairs.
- It is more a restaurant with rooms than a classic hotel.
- Portivy is known for its sunsets on the west coast of Quiberon.
