A very relaxing stay at La Villes des Roches. A wonderful house which has been renovated to a very good standard, spacious,light and airy with a lovely south facing terrace. All in all a great place to stay whilst you explore the beautiful Brittany Coastline. Highly recommended.

We had a great time at the Ville des Roches. We recommend without hesitation this beautiful property, spacious, comfortable, well equipped, very well maintained and fully in line with its description. The place is calm, relaxing, ideal to relax with family. Another big thank you to Judith for her hospitality and "we will come back soon" ...

We had three glorious weeks at La Ville des Roches, in what turned out to be the hottest September in over 100 years. The gite was spacious, comfortable and well equipped, and was an ideal base for visiting many of the towns and coastal areas of this beautiful part of Brittany. We had many days when we were able to laze in the late afternoon and early evening sunshine, while enjoying a few glasses of wine in the large, private garden. Booking was very straightforward, and Judith was most helpful and efficient during the process. We would recommend this lovely holiday home. Thank you, Judith. Ian and Trish.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at La Ville des Roches. A totally relaxing environment. The house has been well appointed and is within easy reach of the beautiful towns of Dinan, Dinard and St Malo. I must mention that the agent Judith could not have been more accommodating and helpful... Many thanks for a wonderful stay.
Guest rating:
Fabulous holiday, this was a good sized property for us as we have two teenage kids who want a bedroom each. This is a very well appointed property and we felt well cared for. The location is very relaxing and has easy access to St Malo and the coast, the area is good for cycling, if you bring your bikes. The vast grounds are lovely and our dog had a wonderful holiday too...thank you Judith, we hope to be back soon....
Guest rating:
Fantastic house and very large garden in a great location to visit the beautiful sandy beaches of Saint Jacut de la Mer, Saint Briac su Mer and the rest of the coast, as well as being close to Dinan and lovely walks on the River Rance. The house is very well equipped and has a real home from home feel rather than a holiday let. Looking forward to returning.

We came to this part of Brittany last May and wanted to return this year. The property we were going to book was already taken, but the owner Judith recommended a property 100 meters down the road. La Ville De Roches. It sounded perfect so we booked it. This was our first proper holiday without our daughters (all now grown up), but we still liked the idea of renting a full size property. Well, when we arrived we were pleasantly surprised how lovely this property is. It looks great from the outside and the garden is huge! The owners have obviously spent a lot of time and money developing the property. The outside seating area is perfect for catching the sun and relaxing outside. The key point for us was the peace and quiet. You could sit and listen to the birds singing and just chill with a large glass of wine. The other point to note is that you are only 15/20 minutes from Dinan, Dinard or St.Malo, even closer to some wonderful beaches and village markets. For couples its great for peace and quiet. For families you would never get bored and the kids can run around in a safe area. All in all a cracking location We should be keeping it a secret just for us!
