Maison Cachée allows you to be as busy or as relaxed as you wish to be.

You could easily wile away the hours in the private courtyard garden – but there is so much to see and do ………

Dinan is a walkers’ and cyclists’ delight. You can head south down the Rance to Lehon on the wonderful riverside path past the open-air public swimming pool, or venture in the opposite direction towards Lyvet and the lagoon which teams with bird life.

There are a whole host of regional costal walks taking in sandy beaches or cliff tops. Cap Frehel, Fort la Latte, Cancale, Saint Suliac and the wonderful St Briac-sur-Mer are all stunning. At St Briac you can have a dip, walk along the coast next to the cliff-top golf course.

A cycling greenway can take you through the fields and villages to Dinard with is wonderful galleries and shops – and a fantastic see level coastal walk.

For keener pedallers head north for some inspiring coastal routes where sweeping roads bring a new beach and a fresh view at every corner, east to Combourg which its lake and chateau, or south to Hede and the ladder of locks.

You can catch the boat along the Rance towards Dinard and St Malo to have a different view of the Rance which its picturesque waterside villages. The walled city of St Malo is really worth a visit.

If you fancy being your own captain, there are electric boats available to hire on the port.

Markets are a staple of French life – and the area does not disappoint. The Dinan market takes place on a Thursday morning at Place Duguesclin and allows you to purchase a whole host of local fresh produce (and a bed and double glazing should they take your fancy!).

The food market in Rennes on a Saturday is staggering in its size and scale. The Marchés des Lices has been taking place every Saturday for more than 400 hundred years and sees 300 or so traders set up their stalls in attracting thousands of locals and visitors. If you are a lover of seafood, you will struggle to find more choice and variety anywhere in the country.

At the other end of the scale, nearby Plouer-sur-Rance has a small and charming market every Sunday morning.

If you are a fan of French antiquities, head to the market square in Dinard on the first Sunday of the month – you will not be disappointed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Maison Cachée’. The house is absolutely beautiful and has every home comfort for a relaxing and luxurious stay. The location is wonderful, with a fantastic range of bars and restaurants all a few minutes walk away, with the delights of the medieval centre of Dinan just a little further. We had a wonderfully relaxing holiday and would not hesitate to recommend this property to family and friends. We also received superb, friendly support and advice from Judith, from our initial enquiry and throughout our stay, always going above and beyond what might be expected. For example recommending dog-friendly beaches and walks, and even arranging a vet appointment for us.

La Maison Cachée is a delightful retreat right on the Rance ! The house is spacious and beautiful and right at the front of Dinan port. Loved the little courtyard and the rose garden a real great heat trap in the afternoon. Great location for biking, kayaking, river cruising and restaurants of which we did plenty! Thanks to the owners for keeping and presenting such a lovely property, and thanks to Judith from Brittany Connections for making the booking experience, slick and cosy. One week is not enough here!

The Maison Cachée seduced us! Tastefully decorated rooms, comfortable bedding. Each bedroom had a nice bathroom and each room has its own identity and delicate fragrance. On the ground floor, a spacious sitting room where young and old find their favourite place, a pretty courtyard where children can play in safety and which welcomes fresco dining. Dinan, a lively town with a sublime heritage and has to offer beautiful walks on the banks of the Rance, these are additional assets. Thanks to Judith for her kindness and keeping in close contact. Everything seems simplified with her. We would definitely be very happy to return, one week wasn’t enough!

Thanks for such beautiful and charming house…. Decorated with delicacy and finesse. Your secret courtyard is a quiet and soothing place to rest, and even work (from home!) We enjoyed very much the house and the surrounding, discovering the Rance Valley. Thanks again for the serenity and calm that your house brings to its guests! We wish to have a longer stay next time. Feeling comfortable and at home, allows you to fully enjoy the natural and tourist environment of Dinan and its surroundings. Thank you again Judith for introducing us to this very charming “Hidden House”. The quality of the accommodation and the comfort in addition to the cleanliness are equal to the other holiday homes that Judith has previously recommended to us.
