"We stayed at this lovely chateau a week in june.....We found the place to suit us perfectly. The chateau has plenty of space with lots of bedrooms and bathrooms to provide privacy and prevent queueing in the morning. Many beautiful old things and art books completed a feeling of being back in the good old days. The kitchen was modern and well equipped and we used it a lot and made many excellent meals. This was also possible since the shops had good quality of seafood and other delicatesses......The chateau has a big lawn and this was very nice to have. We played frisbee, volleyball and badminton etc. The children took a bath in the sea and we found seashells on the shore.....Dinard was a nice town, clean and with lots of flowers......We went out to eat at a restaurant the owner recommended. The staff was very nice and the food was very good. They did not speak English and we know not so much French, so the communication between us were rather interesting. Other guests tried to help out and eventually the waiter had to bring us food from the kitchen to show us before we could order. It was amusing......Bretagne was absolutely a place to come back to and we are glad to recommend this lovely residence."

Dinard airport is 5 minutes drive away, Caen 2 hours and Paris 4 hours. Take the ferry from Portsmouth to Saint Malo and low cost airlines from London to Dinard airport.
Saint Malo lies across the bay from Dinard and is one of the most attractive coastal fishing ports along here, popular with the sailing fraternity. Tall granite houses and narrow little streets crowd inside the medieval ramparts and the town is a cheerfully busy place with some excellent seafood restaurants.
Dinan is another walled medieval town inland from Dinard. The greatest pleasure is just browsing through the maze of old cobblestone streets and squares lined with trees and timber frame houses. There are terrific views of the river from the Jardin des Anglais and you can easily find any number of restaurants that have menus with dishes that range from traditional to gutsy, like roasted brick of Camembert, jugged rabbit and potted fish, grills, créperies and seafood.
Other golf courses include the Golf des Ormes and the St Malo Golf Club at Le Tronchet.
