Looking for recreational land for sale in Côtes-d'Armor (22) means walking through a department of dense hedgerow country, steep valleys and a jagged coastline, between the Trégor, the Goëlo and the Penthièvre. Hedge-lined meadows and hillside woods along the Trieux, the Léguer or the Rance make up most of the non-buildable supply, while ponds are almost impossible to find. On this page, ma-propriete.fr gathers the listings of recreational land for sale in Côtes-d'Armor: a bocage meadow, woodland with access, a plot in an agricultural or natural zone.
You will find price benchmarks drawn from actual sales, an overview of the areas where these plots are concentrated and the points to check before buying in an agricultural, natural or coastal zone. Before committing, read our guide on how to turn agricultural land into recreational land: it explains what local planning rules allow, and what they forbid.
There is no such thing as a "recreational land price" in the French notarial records: the DVF database records sales of agricultural land, woodland and ponds, and a recreational plot is priced against these three benchmarks, higher or lower depending on what it adds (vehicle access, a water point, fencing, an existing shelter, a village nearby). The table below gives, for each benchmark, the sales recorded in 2025 in Côtes-d'Armor (22), the median price and the range between the first decile (floor) and the ninth decile (ceiling), with the national figure for comparison.
| DVF 2025 benchmark | Sales | Median price | Range (P10 – P90) | France median |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bare agricultural land (€/ha) | 371 | €5,584/ha | €3,914/ha – €8,226/ha | €5,307/ha |
| Woodland (€/ha) | 56 | €5,096/ha | €3,007/ha – €10,515/ha | €4,934/ha |
| Pond (€/m²) * | 313 | €2.54/m² | €1.03/m² – €6.90/m² | €2.54/m² |
Bare agricultural land is above the national median (€5,307/ha), with the median price moving +7.5% between 2020 and 2025. Woodland trades close to the national benchmark (€4,934/ha), and a pond, a much rarer asset, is valued per square metre of water and banks. To compare a listing, bring everything back to the square metre: €5,584/ha of bare land is €0.56/m², against €2.54/m² for a pond. Recreational land, almost always classified as an agricultural or natural zone, generally sells slightly above bare agricultural land; but it usually remains subject to the SAFER land agency's right of pre-emption, and the SAFER may pre-empt with a downward price revision if the price is excessive compared with local land prices. These benchmarks therefore also help you avoid paying a price the SAFER would challenge.

Côtes-d'Armor is a department of tight bocage: hedges, banks and small meadows surround farms across the Trégor and the Penthièvre, forming the core of the supply of non-constructible land. Woods cover the slopes of the steep valleys, especially around the Trieux, the Léguer and the Rance, with oak and chestnut stands used for firewood and hunting. This makes patience a useful quality for anyone set on finding a plot in this department.
Ponds are almost absent from the department: the geology of the Breton bocage, made of well-drained valleys rather than retention basins, leaves little room for natural water bodies. A buyer set on a plot with a pond will most often have to settle for a farm pond or look towards neighbouring Ille-et-Vilaine. This terrain, oriented towards the sea, favours hillside woods and valley-bottom meadows rather than large water bodies.
The Trégor, around Lannion and the Léguer valley, offers meadows and hillside woods prized for their coastal proximity. The Goëlo, towards Paimpol and Guingamp, adds more inland bocage plots, less exposed to coastal pressure. The Penthièvre, around Lamballe and Moncontour, and the Rance valley, towards Dinan, complete the supply with valley-bottom woods. Saint-Brieuc and its urban area concentrate demand without offering much bare land. The quieter valleys of the Trieux and the Gouët still hold meadows and woods that are easier to access for buyers seeking peace and quiet.
The most affordable areas lie inland, away from the coast, in the Argoat costarmoricain. Plots close to the coastline, subject to the Loi Littoral, and woods in the Rance valley sell well above the departmental average. These valleys, still spared from urbanisation, offer a more affordable setting than communes directly on the seafront. This inland option suits buyers who value quiet over sea views and are willing to drive a little further to the coast.
In an agricultural (A) or natural (N) zone, new building remains in principle prohibited, and a cabin, a chalet or a light leisure dwelling should be checked against the local planning document. In coastal communes, the Loi Littoral tightens these restrictions further and strongly limits building, even light structures, close to the shoreline. Long-term parking of a caravan or a mobile home is also regulated. Also check access to the plot (rural track, right of way, landlocked parcel). These checks matter as much inland as they do close to the coastline.
Water and electricity connections remain rare in rural areas outside villages. On land classified as agricultural, the SAFER land agency may exercise its right of pre-emption, with a risk of a lower price being set if the asking price strays from local land values. Finally, have the boundaries and exact cadastral area checked, particularly for plots close to the shoreline. where older boundary lines can sometimes be imprecise.
