Recent Property Reviews
‘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. 08/22 July 2022 – Kate & family 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! 22/29 July 2022 – Kevin & Arlene Fitzpatrick and family 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! 05/12 August 2022 – François and Violette, Isabelle, Clémentine Wonderful stay…. Pleasant house, beautiful Deco, everything was perfect. 12/19 August 2022 – Pascale et leurs amis 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. 02/09 Sept 2022 – De la Fuente-Urene |
