The Experience

Steve and Sue have spent years lovingly converting this 17th-century barn, once used to make cider, into this light and spacious space. The huge front doors lead into an airy living area with an impressive, vaulted ceiling – Steve is a master cabinetmaker and has crafted all of the interiors himself.

In the kitchen you’ll find a welcome basket of bread, cheese, eggs, milk, wine and fresh produce from the garden if it’s available. Take breakfast outside on the patio or in your private courtyard – there are sun loungers and a barbecue here too.

There’s wonderful walking and cycling along the river into medieval Dinan and along the coast, or drive 20 minutes to Dinard for great restaurants and some of the best beaches in the area. Cancale, famous for its oysters, is also a 20-minute drive away. Mont St Michel is 30 minutes and Rennes, capital of Brittany, with its parks, gardens and art galleries, is 45.

Reviews

It was a joy to discover this beautifully restored barn. It is a perfect spot to unwind in the blissful, verdant, Breton countryside.
Inspected Nicky Sawday's Inspector

Jackie, Bath

We had a perfect week at La Chapellerie. Lovely owners who were on hand but not intrusive. Excellently equipped kitchen, comfortable bed and great shower. Lots of private places to sit outside whether you wanted sun or shade and so many interesting places and beaches within a short drive. Great welcome pack as well! We have already booked a week next year!


Britta Julia, Zeist, Netherlands

We could not have asked for a lovelier place: we spent a week in this peaceful heaven and enjoyed every minute of it. The house is skillfully created from a former barn with beautiful handcrafted woodwork and everything you could possibly need is provided. There are various outdoor sitting areas where we enjoyed the sweet smells of jasmin, flowering agapanthus and the sound of sparrows nesting in the old stone walls. And owners Sue and Steve are always at hand for advice or support, supplying us with lovely bread and even a sapling from an admired acer tree. I can fully recommend this place!


Jackie, Basingstoke

La Chapellerie is an absolutely beautiful barn conversion, equipped with everything anyone could possibly need. It has a sunny gravelled patio at the front and more space at the back and a huge grassed area. It's all very peaceful, and there's even a young hare which lollops about. Sue and Steve are always around, if needed, and the house contains information on local restaurants, maps and guidebooks which are very useful. Access to St Malo and loads of other places locally with stunning architecture and lots of different amenities is very easy. Highly recommended.


Anne, Bath

We have just had 2 weeks at La Chapellerie, Marvellous! Steve and Sue have created a perfect place to stay, both their skills are to be appreciated and enjoyed. The Rance Valley is great for walking, local villages to explore, plus Dinan nearby, there is no need to travel far each day to be delighted. Book and enjoy!

  • We are just a few kilometers from the river Rance where there are numerous restaurants and bars. From the lock at Lyvet you can take a pleasant riverside walk to the medieval town of Dinan (1hour )
  • If you enjoy seafood then Cancale is the place to go, famous for it’s oyster beds.
  • La Chapellerie is close to all of the main attractions in this beautiful area of Brittany, including Mont St Michel ( the most visited place in France after Paris!), St Malo, Dinard, Dol de Bretagne,and Rennes the capital of Brittany.

Introducing

Sue & Steve Davison

Sue and Steve live in a little cottage next to their gites. They’ve lived here since 1996 and have spent much time renovating the properties – it’s a definite labour of love. Sue is originally from Leeds and studied music at the Northern College of Music, later becoming a private piano teacher. Steve works as a cabinetmaker – the cabinets, stairs, doors and windows in the gites are all his work – and has specialised in bespoke kitchens in the UK. In their spare time they have a boat and enjoy taking it out on the Rance river.
