Occupying an enviable spot in the heart of Renne’s historic centre, this apartment cleverly combines classic French furniture with original features and licks of contemporary chartreuse coloured paint to create a stylish yet welcoming environment.

Make yourself at home in the living space – curl up on the orange tartan sofa with a paperback before rustling up Breton cuisine in the fully-equipped kitchen. After a good feasting, stretch your legs with a wander through the city’s charming streets or embark on a sight-seeing adventure.

The Cathedral Saint-Pierre de Rennes is just footsteps from your doorstep and the Musée de Bretagne is only a short walk away. Pore over works by Picasso, Botticelli and Rubens in the Musée des Beaux-Arts before treating yourself to a glass of wine in a local bar.
