The Experience
Bubbly Nathalie loves to cook and gives you breakfast in the high-ceilinged dining room or on the terrace it overlooks. You choose from a menu the night before: yogurts, cheeses, locally-made organic jams, eggs in any style, fresh fruit salad and pastries, cake and breads. Also Kusmi, Yogi and iced teas. Relax afterwards under a parasol by the large lawn with herbaceous borders and many roses climbing both up the house and the mature trees.
The suite has twin beds in one room and a double in the other, sharing a bathroom and a private sitting room. The other bedroom has a sitting area in the room and all have enormous mahogany beds from Indonesia, antiques and views; locally-made soaps and lotions scent the bathrooms. It’s quiet too with only birdsong and the odd car passing the high stone walls.
Walk into Ducey for a couple of good traditional restaurants or join a section of the Paris to Mont Saint-Michel Voie Verte.

This is the most beautiful property, located just steps from the centre of the town and a very short drive from Mont St Michel - a very welcome oasis of calm after the hustle and bustle of sightseeing. Everything has been thought of to make your stay a memorable one - the decor, the comfort of the rooms and bathroom, the breakfast offerings, the tranquil garden. Many thanks to Nathalie for your hospitality!

This house is an old-school B&B. Owned and run by an artistic, welcoming owner and decorated to show her unbridled love of roses. A gorgeous bike ride to Mont St-Michel and the gardens and cider orchards of Normandy.

Location
The neighbourhood
Ducey sits on the river Sélune, the ancient frontier between Brittany and Normandy. You're surrounded by salty plains and farmland with sheep, crossed by Pilgrim ways. The huge Château des Montgommery is open to the public and the old Pont de Ducey is a fine medieval bridge. Mont Saint-Michel has one of the most famous views in France. St Malo and Dinan are both 45 minutes in the car.
Local points of interest from Nathalie Dorléans
- The Wonder of the West, Mont Saint Michel has always fascinated men. This large « pebble » on which men built a monastery, in the Middle Ages, is in an immense bay surrounded by the largest tides in Europe.
- Pretty village of flowers, Ducey invites you, in the heart of the Bay of Mont Saint Michel, to discover its riches and its natural environment. On arrival, you can admire the majestic Château de Montgomery, the Old Bridge, located on the pilgrims’ way to t
- A visit to the Corsair City is essential! We advise you of course the walk of the ramparts, the Castle, the cathedral of Saint-Vincent but also of course the streets of old Saint-Malo
- The city of Avranches offers many views of the Bay of Mont Saint Michel and tells, through its architecture and heritage, a dense and fascinating history of ancient times when it was called « Legedia ». You can discover an extraordinary heritage.
- Built in the early seventeenth century, the Montgommery castle is located on the banks of the Sélune, in a park, at the entrance of the town of Ducey-Les Chéris. It houses a monumental staircase that has just been remarkably restored
- Possible extra activities around Ducey and in the Mont Saint Michel bay: Hiking, Cycling, Fishing, Canoe and Kayaking on the Selune river in Ducey (only summer time), Sand Surfing, Microlight Flights around the bay of Mont Saint Michel

Introducing
Nathalie Dorléans
Nathalie (an artist) is French-Indonesian and she opened La Rose de Ducey with her husband in 2018. She's a graduate of the Hôtelière de Lausanne school in Switzerland and has worked in hotels for over 10 years in Paris and South East Asia. They're passionate about travel, art and Nathalie also loves to bake, so you're well looked after. This house and the guests are her 'life's work' she tells us.
A truly exceptional 4 night stay in this lovely home in the heart of Ducey. Nathalie is the perfect host providing a delicious breakfast taken either in her dining room or on the terrace. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she was so helpful with restaurant bookings and general advice. There are shady spots in the garden to doze off in over a good book and the Heavenly Rose bedroom is extremely comfortable and beautifully appointed. But above all it is the welcome given by Nathalie and her husband that made our stay so enjoyable. Another Sawday's winner - we shall definitely return.
