The Merchant's House - Old Town Dinan - Traditional Holiday Home in Dinan
House with 4 Bedrooms, Sleeps 8
Situated on the cobbled street leading from the old port of Dinan to the town centre. As you climb up the ancient cobbled street and through one of the gate towers, you will find yourself on the famous Rue de Jerzual with its delightful creperies and art and craft shops which in turn leads to the old town. Although the street is traffic free, apart from residents cars, you are allowed to load and unload, then park your car in a nearby street or by the port itself.
This beautiful 15th century merchant`s house is situated just 75 yds back from the ancient river port of Dinan on the Rue du Petit Fort and has a wealth of oak beams and exposed stone walls, including a magnificent open fire place and some lovely pieces of antique French furniture. Every room has an electric heater although you can have roaring log fires in the winter!
The accommodation is arranged on three floors and sleeps up to 8 people plus baby, so is perfect for 2 families. Entering the house from the street reveals a cosy, oak beamed sitting room featuring an open stone fireplace and plenty of comfortable seating, a table, chairs and a T.V. which has some English channels. Through a low doorway is the well equipped kitchen including a dishwasher, microwave, a large fridge-freezer and a table and chairs. A doorway leads outside to an enclosed pretty terraced garden with patio furniture and barbecue.
A winding oak staircase takes you to the first floor where there are two huge double bedrooms, one having a door leading to the garden. There is a bath/shower room and separate loo on this floor. Another staircase leads to the second floor and to two charming twin attic bedrooms, loo, shower and separate laundry room with washing machine and tumble dryer.
These are wonderfully cosy rooms, having the low `A` frame of the roof clad in pine and running the depth of the house so there`s plenty of space for 4/5 children to sleep and play. A cot, put-u-up and highchair are available if needed.
