Fleur de Lys (2 Bedrooms, Sleeps 4)

Lovely first floor apartment over looking river in Dinan port. Great bars and restaurants but also quiet and charming. Easy access and instructions to apartment, Jeremy and Julia were great hosts, hope to return one day

Fantastic view and a lot of restaurants close to the property.

We stayed 6 nights but wish it was longer The view from the lounge on our arrival was an explosion of light across the river showing all the lovely discoveries we were going to have The place is lovingly furnished to a high standard with nothing left to chance The bed is fantastic and great bedding for excellent sleeps ( we had such great sleeps ) The kitchen and all crockery of a high standard There’s a lovely little garden down the tow path where we sat and drank wine Only minor issue is parking as some days if we were u lucky we had to park over the river . Best to pay for the 20€ parking We will return as just loved it Thank you

lovely bright apartment over looking over the town of Dinan. We enjoyed a quiet and comfy stay in this well equipped light and airy apartment.

This lovely first floor apartment is part of a beautiful old half-timbered house. It has a great atmosphere and is very well equiped. There is also a nice garden. It is perfectly located in the port area of Dinan. From the apartment you can walk accross the bridge into the old part of town or go on a nice stroll along the river. The host is very helpful in answering all your questions. We had a great stay here!

The property is full of character and is in a fantastic location overlooking the river and just a short (uphill) walk into the beautiful town of Dinan. It was nice not to use the car for a few days as we found there was enough to in walking distance - walks or cycling along the river, boat hire, walking around Dinan. There's lovely restaurants on the doorstep too. The apartment was plenty big enough for a family of four and the beds were comfy. We didn't do loads of cooking but the kitchen had plenty of utensils and cleaning stuff etc. Would have liked bigger/more comfy sofas to relax in after a busy day. Overall we had a lovely stay.

The apartment is beautiful, spacious and clean. It is even nicer than the pictures, and is in the perfect location. It is right in the port of Dinan, right next to the walking and biking trails, and with easy access up the hill to historic old town Dinan. Jeremy and Julia were wonderful hosts, and always available in case of questions. We would love to come back again!

We enjoyed our stay at Fleur de Lys in the historic Port of Dinan on the Rance River mainly because of its location. It has a great view of the river and is right within the old town with its many restaurants, cafes and pubs. There truly was a picture around every corner and particularly of the Rue de Petit Fort bridge and the steep hill into the old town. The cleanliness of the property was good but not exceptional (there was dirt on the kitchen floor when we arrived). The check in process was a lock box and Jeremy the owner had explained that very well to us in emails prior to our arrival. The accuracy of the online listing as it turned out was not all that great. The apartment looks nice and bright in the online pictures but in reality the bathroom was dark and dingy as was the toilet for which there was no picture in the online listing. The bathroom and toilet could do with a fresh coat of paint, a more modern shower (that's not prone to leaking water on the floor) and brighter light fixtures. The kitchen was minimally equipped and the cook top gas tank ran out of fuel right after we turned it on. Fortunately we didn't really need to use the cook top and didn't have to learn how to change a tank in France. Communication with the property manager: The email communication with Jeremey before we arrived was excellent. His instruction on how to get there were very helpful as were the instructions left in the apartment. We had been looking forward to actually meeting Jeremy but unfortunately that didn't happen. Location: As mentioned above, location is this property's biggest attribute. As with real estate, there are three reasons to stay here: (1) location, (2) location, and (3) location. But the property is getting tired and could use a bit of a spruce-up. Overall, we debated between 3.5 and 4 and finally landed on 4, mainly because of the location and our communications with Jeremy before arriving. The property is tiring as noted above and in comparison with other properties we've rented on this and past trips to France. We had expected Fleur de Lys to be the nicest of the four apartments we rented in Brittany, Normandy and Belgium on this trip. When we sat down at home and reviewed our experience at the end of the trip we had to give it the lowest ranking of the four (N.B. the per night cost was quite similar for all). However, it's location was the nicest surprise of the apartments we rented on this trip.
