Les Maisons de Bricourt

What Les Maisons de Bricourt does

Les Maisons de Bricourt is a privately-held, family-operated hospitality group headquartered in Saint-Méloir-des-Ondes, Brittany, France, incorporated as SAS RICHEUX. Founded in 1982 by Jane and Olivier Roellinger with the original restaurant Le Bricourt, the group has evolved into a multi-vertical luxury hospitality and gastronomy business now co-directed by the second generation: Hugo Roellinger (chef-owner of Le Coquillage) and Marine Roellinger, with Mathilde Roellinger directing the sister entity Épices Roellinger. The portfolio spans four distinct accommodations (Château Richeux — a 12-room Relais & Châteaux hotel; Les Rimains — a 4-room boutique cliffside hotel; Ferme du Vent — six Kled eco-units; and the five Gîtes Marins seaside lodges), two restaurants (the 3-Michelin-star Le Coquillage with single tasting menus at €275 per person and a €215 lunch menu, and the casual Le Bistrot de Cancale opened in June 2022 above Port Mer beach), wellness offerings (Bains Celtiques thermal baths and reflexology), two artisanal pastry-tea salons (Grain de Vanille in Cancale and Vent de Vanille in Dinard), and the Épices Roellinger spice brand with retail boutiques in Cancale, Saint-Malo, and Paris plus DTC e-commerce.

The underlying technology is standard, off-the-shelf hospitality and retail infrastructure: Synxis (property management and booking engine) for accommodation, Reservit as an alternative booking interface, Guestonline for restaurant table reservations up to 4–8 covers online, Sylius for the spice e-commerce storefront, and Givito for the gift card shop. Distribution is direct-to-consumer via maison-de-bricourt.com and epices-roellinger.com, augmented by Relais & Châteaux network referrals, three physical spice boutiques, and two pastry salons. Customer segments center on affluent leisure travelers, gastronomes, couples and families on luxury staycations, wellness and disconnection seekers, and food/spice enthusiasts, served through a high-touch reservation-led model (phone, email, and online) anchored by Michelin-derived and editorial reputation rather than paid acquisition.
