Madame Merveilles Rennes, Brittany

Holiday Rental Description

Sitting right in the historic heart of Rennes and located right next to the city’s oldest house, this elegant apartment puts you in a prime position to soak up all the cultural delights on offer here.

The living area is beautifully bright and blends Old World sophistication with contemporary style to create an instantly inviting welcome. We love the rose-coloured curtains here that contrast chicly with the black sofa and dining room chairs, while the plant and parrot motif feature wall adds additional character to the proceedings. The main bedroom is a vision of modern elegance with its silver and white palette, as well as its antique-style bureau and we can’t get enough of the kitchen’s terracotta paintwork and exposed brick arch.

Best of all, however, you have a private courtyard garden to enjoy all to yourself. Whether you’re starting mornings here with a sunny alfresco breakfast or enjoying some local fromage and vin rouge in the evenings, you’ll love having this calm space to retreat to as you listen to the pealing bells of the nearby Cathedral Saint-Pierre.

Aside from the beautiful cathedral that’s just a stone’s throw away, you’re also well-positioned to explore the Portes Mordelaises, the Musée des Beaux-Arts and the Parlement de Bretagne.
