Our house is 15 minutes walk from the city center of Dinan with it's medieval streets and a castle. There il also a small charming village 5 minutes away, with a beautiful abbey and a cafe with live music and exhibitions during the summer. There is also an open air swimming pool near the abbey with a great view and not crowded at all even in the summer. The Rance river is 5 minutes away and you can row down to the port of the city if you like
The house has a garden and a small greenhouse and you can pick up the vegetables during your stay (and water them as well).
We have two kids 6 and 9 years old so there is plenty of toys. We don't have a TV but a beamer if you want to watch some movies. There are two pianos (electric)
We have some bicycles, a longtail bike, a table tennis table, an inflatable kayak that you can use.
The garden is big enough for the kids to play and there is a treehouse as well.
The surroundings are very charming with pedestrian roads and hikes.
We have a cat as well.
The Space
Our house is quite comfortable, with 4 bedrooms that can accommodate up to 5 people. There are two bathrooms. The living room opens up to a terrace and the garden. No air conditioning. The cat doesn't like to travel...

Hi! We are a French-Bulgarian family with two kids. We are both medical doctors. We like to travel and to meet new people. We try to stay quite active and we like sailing, windsurfing biking and rock climbing.
We moved recently to Dinan, in the west of France, and we are definitely in love with this city and the region as well.
