Getting Here

Brittany Country Gite is located in La Haute Houssais near St Maden, close to the medieval port town of Dinan. To find us on a map, locate Dinan, then trace down the D766 (to the west/left of Dinan) and you'll find St Maden to the east/right, before you get to Caulnes. (Note that La Haute Houssais is misspelt on some maps as "Houssats".)

By Ferry There are crossings from Dover to Calais, Newhaven to either Dieppe or Le Havre, Portsmouth to Caen, Cherbourg and St Malo and Plymouth to Roscoff. Your choice will depend on where you're coming from and your preference for price versus driving distance in France. St Malo is the nearest port being only about 40 minutes drive but it is also the most expensive crossing.

By Plane You may choose to fly in which case with the budget airlines you have the choice of Stansted to Dinard with Ryan Air or flying into Rennes from Southampton with FlyBe.

By Train. You may choose to take the train in which case you could travel from London to Paris (or change at Lille) and then on to Rennes on the TGV. From Rennes you can get a connection to Caulnes, which is only a few km away from St Maden.

We are happy to discuss your travel options with you and will provide detailed directions to our front door at the time of booking.
