We had a lovely time over Christmas at Jacci and Rob’s beautiful town house. Dinan is a real gem of a town, with lots of history and nice local shops. It was busy with visitors which added to the festive feeling. The house was perfect for us and very central being next to St Sauvuer church, the gardens and ramparts. We managed trips to Dinard and Rennes which were also very nice and interesting. You can park outside the house to drop off/pick up and then park your car in the secure underground car park a few minutes walk away. Everything has been thought of in terms of furnishings and kitchen equipment and we managed to cook a full Christmas dinner with duck rather than our usual goose.Our stay was made perfect by the beautiful cold and sunny weather we had throughout, perfect for walking and exploring. We will not hesitate to come back when visiting this area again.

We really enjoyed our stay in Dinan. The location of the house is wonderful, especially with a dog (who is good at walking stairs)! There is a green area right on the doorstep and you can walk along the river in just a few minutes. The house manager is very helpful and has great tips for your stay! Many thanks again!
This quant property is perfectly located to enjoy the full ambience of medieval Dinan. The owners and manager are very pleasant to deal with and we really appreciated the English touches, particularly with the entertainment system. Everything worked well and overall it was a most comfortable experience.
At the end of May, we spent nine nights in Jacci and Rob's old, small, charming house. You immediately notice that the hosts themselves are frequent guests in the house: everything is available in sufficient quantities, nothing is rationed as is often the case in holiday apartments. The living room on the first floor with the kitchenette is optimally utilised and furnished to make you feel at home – even rainy days can be spent there very comfortably. We slept very well in the actually very small bedroom under the roof, after we had got used to the limited space. If you want more space, you can sleep in the bedroom on the ground floor. It has significantly more space and a luxurious bathtub instead of a shower. For us (aged 69 and 78), the two relatively narrow and steep staircases were no problem, but this may be different for people with health problems. The location right next to the English Garden with its famous view of the Rance and the port of Dinan and right next to the Basilica of Saint-Saveur is priceless. You walk out of the house and you are in the historic old town.Despite this hot spot location, it was quiet. The parking subscription card provided by Jacci and Rob is also invaluable. The car park is on the other side of the basilica and only a two-minute walk away.Unfortunately, only 1,500 characters are allowed here. Therefore, our conclusion is:We can definitely recommend Jacci and Rob's house!
This is a lovely apartment; everything was beautifully done…and so much thoughtful attention to detail everywhere. The owners have compiled excellent information about the apartment and the town. The location is fantastic: peaceful and quiet. You can easily walk to everything. NOTE: be sure to get clear, specific directions to the apartment and also to the correct parking garage. We had a very difficult time with both upon our arrival but finally got it figured out. All in all this is a very special and charming place; we felt very lucky to have found it. Thank you, Jacci et Rob!
This is obviously a second home that is being rented out rather than a house bought to rent out for an income, and it shows. There are lots of nice, thoughtful, little touches throughout. The photos and descriptions are accurate and although quite small, it was very comfortable and cosy for the three of us. We have been using VRBO for many years and this is definitely one of the best choices we have made. I won't go into too much detail about the house and the area as other reviews already cover this. The only added information I would offer would be to say that "Cozy" restaurant was fantastic. The only extra thing I'd ask from the owner - tell us where to buy the wine that was left for us - I'm not a wine connoisseur - but I do enjoy wine and that was a very nice bottle of red - thank you.
Très bon emplacement dans le centre historique de Dinan. La location est très bonne dans son ensemble mais à déconseiller pour les personnes à mobilité réduite car l'escalier est assez raide. L'accès à la location par la voiture est assez compliqué car beaucoup de rues sont à sens unique. Une machine à laver serait un plus pour les longs séjours.
A short distance to the centre of Dinan which is very french town with a huge history. Lovely houses dating back centuries, a fine shopping area, lovely cafes, croissants and bagettes for breakfast! All the people we met were so friendly and most were willing to speak English to help us out. I want to go back already! The gite is well equipped and is comfortable for living and sleeping. We had our dog with us and the only downside were the open tread stairs from the ground floor to the first floor. Our dog refused to climb or descend. As the first floor is the living area I had to carry her up and down (25kgs). Despite that I wholeheartedly recommend this place for a relaxed and friendly holiday.
