About this property

Beautiful stone house in charming village near the coast

This three bedroom house sits prominently in the centre of La Ville-ès-Nonais, a quiet, charming village situated between St Malo, Dinard and Dinan, on the Rance Estuary.

A quirky property with plenty of charm and spacious living areas, including two outdoor spaces.

The house is a very short drive from the Northern coast of Brittany, offering easy access to the stunning beaches at St Lunaire and the famous oyster fishing bay at Cancale as well as easy access from the port of St Malo.

The name Ancienne Poste derives from the property's heritage... The building was at one time the village Post Office and cider-producing barn to the rear, which have now been beautifully incorporated into this recently renovated three-storey property.

A real home-away-from-home, this house is perfect for one large, or two small families with children. L’Ancienne Poste comfortably sleeps eight guests in two double bedrooms, one bunk bedroom and a mezzanine snug with twin beds.

Ground Floor:
Main entrance; living room with fireplace & access to the interior courtyard (perfect for outdoor dining in the summer months); fully fitted utility room with washing machine & tumble dryer; spacious open plan kitchen/dining room with access to the interior courtyard & rear patio; mezzanine level above the kitchen with desk area and twin beds.

First Floor:
Large double bedroom with plenty of storage space and natural light; cosy children’s bunk bedroom with large chest-of-drawers and hanging rail; modern family bathroom with bath/shower, sink, WC and heated towel rail.

Second Floor:
Spacious master double bedroom with unique features including double height ceiling and plenty of natural light; en-suite bathroom with large shower, sink, WC and heated towel rail.

** PLEASE NOTE the mezzanine level is currently in the process of refurbishment, so can be used but is not fully finished.

Très belle région mais déception concernant le logement.

Tout d'abord impossibilité d'utiliser le feu au bois. Lors de notre choix de location, la présence d'un feu au bois était un critère primordial. La maison étant froide et humide, pouvoir faire un bon feu de bois aurait été fort appréciable. Ensuite, concernant l'utilisation de la télévision, heureusement que nous avions un abonnement car aucune chaîne n'était disponible. Par ailleurs, en revoyant les photos sur le site je constate que le salon devait être équipé de 3 canapés. Il n'y en avait que deux. Impossible de se serrer à 8 dans les deux, donc deux personnes devaient s'asseoir sur une chaise ce qui n'est évidemment pas des plus confortable. La limitation de la consommation électrique a occasionné de nombreuses coupures de courant. Nous avons du jongler pour éviter d'utiliser en même temps la télévision, le lave vaisselle, le four en tenant compte du fait que le chauffage devait fonctionner toue le journée au rez de chaussée puisque nous ne pouvions pas utiliser le feu au bois et que les châssis en bois anciens laissaient passer le froid. Concernant le four électrique, lors de la première utilisation, nous avons constaté que celui-ci était TRES sale et n'avait pas du être nettoyé depuis longtemps. La vaisselle n'était pas non plus très propre. Nous avons dû nettoyer avant utilisation verres, couverts et assiettes. Derrière la porte de la cuisine dans le sac à pain, nous avons retrouvé une baguette noire de moisissures qui trainait là sûrement depuis un bon moment. Le nettoyage de la maison n'était pas très bien réalisé : toiles d'arraignée qui pendaient aux poutres du salon et dans la salle de bain. Les photos de la maison sur le site laisse croire que tout est bien rangé dans la maison. Nous avons dû constater sur place que nombre de bacs avec jouets d'extérieur, combinaisons de natation, jeux et autres étaient stockés de manière très apparente sous l'escalier et dans la cidrerie.

Charming stay in the heart of a beautiful village

We had an absolutely wonderful weeklong stay at L'Ancienne Poste. The home is charming and well-appointed. We’ve rented VRBO houses all over France and it’s always appreciated when you stay at a place where the owners pay attention to detail. To name only a few details: Rosenthal china, sharp and plentiful chef’s knives, modern appliances, exceptionally fluffy towels, excellent bed linens. The double exposure kitchen was a treat to be in. Parking was literally a few steps away near the church and there was always a spot available for us. there is a beautiful, private, enclosed terrace that can be accessed from two points in the house. While there isn’t much by way of retail in the village, there is a really good boulangerie/patisserie, La Mie Nonaisienne, operated by a young couple just about 100 metres up the street - open from 7-1, then again from 3-7. We used it daily. Great spot as a home base for day trips. Another good sign - every question we had before and during our stay was answered within minutes via email or text by Jess. Well done.

Belle maison au cœur d'un village typique

Le gîte est très bien situé pour rayonner vers St Malo, Dinan, Dinard, Cancale ou tout près St Suliac et les magnifiques rives de la rance notamment. Rien n'est loin pour faire du tourisme. Pour les commerces de proximité c'est plus compliqué (boulanger fermé et peu de commerces atteignables à pied). Le gîte est confortable même si en hiver certaines pièces comme la salle à manger sont longues à chauffer. Le fait que les WC soient à l'étage est un léger désagrément également. Le salon, spacieux et douillet avec ses trois canapés était idéal pour Noël. Nous n'avons pas réussi à regarder les chaînes hertziennes sur la TV mais nous avions wifi et tablette donc ce n'était pas vraiment gênant. En été une terrasse, des vélos sont autant d'atouts supplémentaires pour découvrir ce magnifique coin de Bretagne.

Why they chose this property

This beautiful house started life as three different properties; a town house, the village post office and a cider-making barn. It is now a charming and unique 4 bedroom house with 2 private outdoor areas, and plenty of living space for up to 10 guests.

What makes this property unique

Located in a quiet village just a few doors down from the local riding stables, this house offers a complete escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. You have access to the beaches and towns of Saint-Suliac, St Malo, Dinard and Dinan (to name a few) within a 15 minute drive so whether you want to go sailing, swimming, sand-castle building, shopping, eating, drinking, golfing or sight-seeing the possibilities are endless!
