The Experience

The house dates from 1780, with a roof terrace added in the 1950s and the architecture is Pre-Raphaelite in style with heavy wood carvings and large windows. The hallway gives onto a beautiful dining room and a well-proportioned sitting room with a fireplace, sofa, plump armchairs, lots of books and a piano. Huge windows reveal views over the lawns to mature trees – a peaceful spot.

One bedroom, Sage, is at garden level; Madder and Jacinthe are on the second floor and have a little seating area between them with a library where you can make a brew. All three are a good size (Sage is the biggest) and have pretty colour palettes and garden views. Breakfast is served in the dining room or on the back terrace: croissants, pains au chocolat, homemade jams, local honey, yogurt and fresh fruit. Those staying more than one night can order dinner, two or three courses with cheese.

Wander the forest for a surprise or two, rest in the sun.

Reviews

It would be great fun to stay here, to explore this mysterious and charming house, beautifully decorated by bubbly Anoushka fresh from a career in London's theatre scene. Dinners sound delicious!

Location

The neighbourhood

You're on the edge of Merdrignac, a little town, but with good independent shops and a market on Wednesdays. You can get a decent plat du jour at Le Central Bar then join the Voie Verte for wonderful walks, runs or cycles through pretty countryside. A lake campsite nearby offers sailing and archery in summer and a studio cinema with French and English films. Dinan is 48km, Saint-Malo 80km.

Local points of interest from Anoushka Lewis

  • Cycle the Voie Verte from Merdrignac to Laurenan and visit the château on its open days.
  • Explore the historic streets of Dinan, before walking down the hill to have lunch at the river port.
  • Visit the atmospheric walled town of Saint Malo for shopping and some moules à la creme and a local cider by the beach.
  • Wander the magnificent Saturday morning market in Rennes and have a coffee/pick me up at the Mama restaurant (great views out on the market).
  • Sample some brilliant Galettes at my favourite spot: Crêperie des Forges.
  • Pack a picnic and go for a walk and find a secluded spot for a wild swim on Lac de Guerlédan. Or go for a swim in the sea at Erquy, and then walk the coastal pathways.

Introducing

Anoushka Lewis

After 15 years in London, Suffolk-born Anoushka swapped city life for a slower pace in rural France. Having fallen for the Manoir’s elegant charm and wild garden, she signed the papers mid-lockdown and dived straight into a full restoration. Her creativity and flair are abundantly evident everywhere in the house, and her enthusiasm is infectious.
