Four Beautifully Converted
18th Century Barns
Beautiful converted barns near Dinan, La Poutelais, surrounded by open
farmland offering unspoiled views, is a seven acre 18th century farm
between Rennes and St Malo. Lovingly restored into 4 cottages under
architect supervision maintaining the character and original features. All
works are of the highest standard and quality furnishings ensure first
class accommodation with a new, heated 11m x 5.5m pool open from May to
October.
The private entrance driveway, of about 150metres is flanked by 106 poplar
trees, is an impressive sight on arrival. The grounds are surrounded by
cornfields and an old cider apple orchard at the entrance. The front lawns
and the rear grassed area under the old oak tree are ideal for barbecues
and picnics. There is also a boule court, children's swings, badminton and
volley ball and table tennis. Surrounding the granite mill in the central
courtyard is the Manor House and the converted barns.

La Poutelais is about 2km from
Tinténiac with a variety of shops, museum, zoo, and tourist office.
The Rance Canal, running from the narrowing of the Rance River at
Dinan and onto Rennes, is a pleasurable sight. Nearby the eleven locks
raise the canal up the steep slopes of the foothills in an amazingly
short distance of about 3km, offering many delightful picnic areas
along its banks. Hédé only a 3km distance, is a delightful small
village approached through the forest of St Brieuc des Iffs. Three
restaurants on its outskirts, The Vieux Moulin, The Genty Home and The
Vieille Auberge beside the lake, offer traditional cuisine. Whether
touring, sporting or just enjoying the tranquility of the peaceful
surroundings, La Poutelais offers an unequaled opportunity to enjoy
the charm and tranquility of rural Brittany.
Delightful tourist attractions nearby include Mont St Michel, Concale,
St Malo, the Rance Estuary, Dinard and Dinan which are all within 40
minutes drive. La Poutelais is overlooked by the chateau de Montmuran.
The chateaux in Combourg, Vitré, Fougères, Bourbansais and Caradeuc
are in the immediate vicinity, with the Loire Valley less than 2
hour's drive south.
The beaches along the coastline, known as the Emerald Coast, offer
full amenities in prestigious seaside resorts such as St Brieuc, St
Malo and Concale, to name but a few. Many of these fine sandy beaches
are flanked by rocks which provide shelter when the sea is running
high and all have a full range of facilities, including hire services.
Riding school and hire nearby (2 km) at Le Besnelais between Tinténiac
and Hédé. Tennis, football, basketball and swimming pool in Combourg.
Golf with fine facilities at Le Tronchet. Cycling is enjoyed along the
many, mainly flat historic and picturesque routes in the area.
