Home description
Les Tours takes its name from the towers of the twelfth century castle next to which it stands. The ruins have been recently restored and you are now free to explore them . The house is in the well preserved,peaceful village of Lehon, which boasts some of the oldest and finest buildings in Dinan including an abbey dating back to the ninth century. Close by is the river Rance with paths leading out to unspoilt countryside. If you cross the ancient bridge and stroll along the river past the lock keepers cottage you arrive at the bustling port of Dinan from where you could take a boat trip or eat in one of many good restaurants. An open air heated pool and tennis courts are both within a short walk of the house. The house has a two bedroomed duplex apartment offering stylish and comfortable accommodation for up to 4 people in one double and one twin bedded room. An external granite staircase leads up to the main front door giving access to a very spacious living room with modern kitchen and dining area. A wooden staircase leads up to two good sized bedrooms and a shower room with WC. Central heating makes this a good base at any time of year, ideal for getting to know the area , house hunting or just getting away from it all. La Tourelle is a spacious ground floor studio apartment , sleeping 2, with fully equipped kitchen and shower room offering an ideal base for couples visiting the area ,

The Brittany / Cotes-D'Armor region
Brittany is an area of breathtaking natural beauty. The long coastline is a seemingly endless succession of rocky headlands, wild cliffs, island studded bays and beautiful sandy beaches. Inland is equally attractive. Castles, historic towns and attractive cottages are sprinkled through the gentle hilly countryside.Brittany recognises the value of its beautiful environment and protects it's heritage of historic buildings and towns. At the same time it has a vibrant social and cultural life with many music events , large and small. A wide variety of other interests are well catered for , including golf, fishing, all sorts of watersports, hiking and cycling. The region is easily accessible from the UK with ferry ports at St Malo , Roscoff or Cherbourg and with Ryanair providing very low cost flights to Dinard.
Dinan / Lehon area
Situated very close to Dinan, Lehon retains it's own identity and character. Nestling by the river Rance, the town grew up by the 9th Century Abbey and the medieval stone bridge. The house is located just opposite the 12th Century Norman Castle , which is now restored. Lehon is steeped in history and has many fine stone houses with attractive floral displays during the summer. A few hundred metres from the house are riverside paths leading into tranquil countryside , a perfect place to take a picnic , unwind and watch the wildlife of this unspoilt region. Lehon has an attractive bar and bistro offering traditional French cuisine and a bakery. An open air heated swimming pool can be found a short walk away and is a great place to visit at any time of the year. Dinan is close by , and offers an unspoilt medieval town centre , plenty of reasonably priced restaurants and the opportunity to browse the wares of artisans and artists. Behind the ramparts the old centre of town vibrates with life. The many half timbered dwellings still house merchants, though their trades may have changed. Rue Du Jerzual and Rue Du Petit Fort lead through one of the ancient town gates down to the Port, winding between two perfect rows of restored and traditional houses. On the Port you can sit and watch the world go by from one of the riverside cafes and restaurants, take a boat trip to the old citadel port of St. Malo or hire a self drive boat and explore the delightful river Rance. There is a good number of excellent golf courses a short drive away from the house, including Dinard (founded in 1887), St Malo, Pen Guen (St Cast) and Sables D'Or at Cap Frehel. Perhaps the best course is located at Pléneuf Val André, which should be on every golfers 'must play' list. As the language can sometimes be a barrier , we can liaise with the course on your behalf and book tee times for you so your golf is all arranged before you arrive.
How to get there
Dinan is easily reached from the port of St Malo or the nearby airport of Dinard ( Ryanair offer very low cost flights from the UK) , both are within 40 minutes drive. The Ferry ports of Roscoff , Cherbourg and Caen are all within 2 hours easy drive on France's well maintained road network.
