Idyllic small town experience
La Madeleine was the perfect spot for our two couples to spend four nights, enjoying Dinan and the surrounding countryside. The charming little storybook house was a delight to return to each afternoon. The hosts could not have been more accommodating, making sure we had ideas for Ways to spend our days, and great Places to have our meals. I can’t recommend Lane enough to you!

This cosy house is in the perfect location; just a few steps from the port of Dinan. Communication with the managers was brilliant. The house is tastefully decorated and well equipped. There are also 2 bikes for use which was great.We had a lovely time here and enjoyed the restaurants along the river side. Would definitely recommend.
