Once a home for horses, this former stable is perfectly placed for a visit to Rennes. Tucked nicely near Thabor Gardens, it allows you to be close to the city yet far enough away from the hustle and bustle that you can enjoy some much-needed quiet time whenever you retreat back home. 
 
With nods to its history through exposed beams and brickwork, this recently renovated home has been beautifully modernised, while retaining its charm. The sleek, modern kitchen is a delight to cook in, should you decide an evening at home is preferred over dining out. Climb the spiral staircase and you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms to choose from, both of which guarantee a blissful night’s sleep. A fairly neutral palette is broken up throughout the home with pops of colour, giving the whole space a calming, cosy vibe.

Our favourite part of this home is the terrace. Quite the sun trap during the day, it’s a peaceful place to retreat to as evening sets in. Grab yourself a bottle of fine French wine and settle down on the sofas with your loved ones. As night falls and a blanket of stars breaks out above, listen to the quiet chatter of your loved ones and feel yourself relax. This is where memories are made.

Single-Level Home

Step into this beautiful apartment and be dazzled by the amount of natural light pouring through its French windows. Located in the heart of Rennes’ historic centre, you’ll have the city at your feet, not to mention an elegant base from which to experience it all. 

Parquet floors, tall ceilings and French windows instantly create a striking impression in the living area. We love the natural textures here, from the wicker Acapulco chairs to the long wooden dining table, as well as the windows’ Juliet balconies that invite you to perch by them with your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. 

The main bedroom is similarly bright with its tall windows and generously-sized bed, while its cosy alcove offers a desk space that’s ideal for those looking to catch up on work during their stay. 

Outside of your home, you’ve got plenty to see and do within easy walking distance, including the Cathedral Saint-Pierre de Rennes, the Parlement de Bretagne and the Musée des Beaux-Arts.

This bright apartment situated in the centre of Rennes is a comfortable base for a family or a small group of friends visiting the capital of Brittany and wanting to make the most out of their stay. Location is certainly a great convenience here, and the pad itself offers a warm and friendly place to come back to at the end of a long day of exploring. 

Upon arrival, you’ll be greeted by a light-filled open-plan living space, with a comfy sofa inviting you to kick back and relax with a glass of French wine, or cider, and a good movie. You’ll also be able to rustle up light meals in the kitchen and share them with your loved ones at the dining table. There’s also a balcony here, where you can admire city views and enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning.

Outside your front door, you’ll be within easy access to the city’s historic landmarks, including the imposing cathedral, as well as numerous shops, restaurants and cafes. 

Keep on Shining 

This adorable home has everything to suggest it's tucked away in a French village, but it's in the heart of cosmopolitan Rennes. Even the enchanting courtyard will have you convinced you've stepped into a storybook world, not at the foot of St. Peter's Cathedral.

When stepping into this secret garden courtyard, we're practically waiting for Gaston and the townspeople to burst out of the windows and break into song. The sprawling foliage and quaint buildings provide a place where time stands still and you can break away from the thoughts of daily life. First impressions count, and this one will be lasting. 

Inside the cosy home, the owner has thoughtfully cloaked the interior in a modern preference for mid-century design, with a warm-toned colour palette that is vibrant yet soothing. And with plenty of ambience-setting lighting, this home exudes a comforting homeliness. We imagine you'll want to spend a lot of your time soaking up the place – preparing dinner in the well-equipped kitchen to be enjoyed around the beautiful dining table, before getting snug on the plush sofas with a warming hot chocolate beneath the ceiling's original beams. 

While it's easy to spend a lot of time in this calming cottage, it's only right to explore when you're in such a fantastic location. Whether you want to see the city on foot, by bike, by bus, or by metro, it's all readily available here. You're in the heart of Rennes' historical centre, away from the hustle and bustle but close to its charming cobbled streets and historical sights.

Parking On Premises

This apartment boasts an exceptional location in the heart of Rennes, on the square facing Saint Pierre Cathedral. Set on the third floor of a beautiful 19th century building complete with stained glass windows, the apartment is full of old world charm. High ceilings, wooden parquet floors, and ornate fireplaces characterise the space, which is bathed in natural light thanks to the tall windows. Each of the bedrooms is tastefully decorated, with comfortable beds and hotel quality sheets. There's a desk in the kids room in case you need to squeeze in some work. Throw open the curtains in the morning to admire the view of the Rennes rooftops and the cathedral, and enjoy coffee and croissants together at the dining table before heading out to explore. 

All of Rennes’ best attractions are within easy walking distance. Get a dose of culture at the Musée des Beaux-Arts before a restorative lunch at one of the local cafes. Spend the afternoon wandering the cobbled streets, admiring the historic timber-framed houses, or stroll along the canal. A day trip to Mont Sant Michel is unmissable – the mesmerising island topped with an abbey is an hour and fifteen minutes away by car. After a day of exploring, settle down in the sanctuary of your living room for a movie night together.

Self Check-in / Check-out

A stone's throw from Rennes' must-see sites – such as the Place des Lices, Cathédrale Saint-Pierre and La Vilaine, just to name a few – this cosy apartment is nestled in a prime spot for exploring. Start your day with a wander through the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Rennes, then dig into an alfresco lunch at the city's array of delicious eateries. Come evening, don your fanciest outfit and enjoy a night at the opera or for something a bit more low-key, pack a picnic and watch the sunset in Parc du Thabor.

When you're not out and about, we think this flat is a fantastic place to kick back and unwind. The sleek and simple design is a calming respite from the hustle and bustle, while features like the knotted wooden beams overhead and decorative mantelpiece add the perfect amount of French charm.

Make yourself comfortable and plop down on the squishy sofa with a glass of French wine in hand, reminiscing about the day's adventures as you plan tomorrow's itinerary. For dinner, the sleek kitchen is well-stocked for serving up scrumptious meals around the stylish island – we suggest cooking a Breton dish like galettes using fresh produce from the Saturday market. With rainfall showers in the glossy bathrooms, sumptuous beds in each bedroom and a light-filled living space ideal for socialising, we think a group of friends or a small family will be more than happy to call this pad home.

Situated in the beautiful city of Rennes, this homely apartment provides the perfect place to retreat to after a day out exploring. When you first step inside, you’ll be struck by the character in this home. The expanse of exposed stone is the most eye-catching feature, and with a classic fireplace, exposed beams and delicate wainscoting, you can’t help but be utterly charmed. Modern furnishings including a comfortable chaise sofa and opulent chandelier bring this home up-to-date, and the mix of old and new appears effortless. Natural light floods in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, accentuating the pops of colour provided through the ochre curtains and teal stools.

After a day of sightseeing in Rennes, return home with some local produce and show off your culinary skills in the kitchen. Your loved ones can gather around the stylish dining table and exchange stories over a bottle of fine French wine. As weariness sets in, climb the stairs to bed. The bedrooms here are cosy with comfortable beds full of promise for a blissful night’s sleep. On waking the next morning, throw open the windows, pour yourself a coffee and as the city wakes below, plan for another day of French memory-making. 

Ochre Opulence

Perched on the outskirts of Rennes’ quiet Sud-Gare neighbourhood, this chic home is the perfect setting for a relaxing French getaway with all your favourite people. If you’re anything like us, you’ll love the soothing feel of the interior here – think neutral tones and plenty of natural light – not to mention the abundance of space for eating, drinking, and being merry with your fellow guests. Come together for a hearty meal at the dining table or grab a seat on the terrace and watch the sun go down as you sip a glass of the finest French wine. Bliss. 

When it’s time to head out, you’ll find yourself within easy reach of Rennes’ historic centre, the perfect place for a spot of sightseeing with the rest of your entourage. Soak up the neoclassical architecture of Rennes Cathedral, sample local produce at Marché des Lices, or embrace your inner art critic at the Musée des Beaux-Arts. Safe to say, there’s something for everyone here.

Whisper of the Trees

Nestled within a historic building, this ever-so-sleek and modern apartment has been renovated to inspire a restorative effect on its guests. 

The free-flowing space is swathed in contemporary furnishings which blend seamlessly with the original beamed ceilings and exposed brickwork. It’s a serene space with a plump sofa for sinking into with a chilled glass of Muscadet, and a sumptuously slick kitchen for French feasts – make sure to pick up your ingredients from the vibrant market of Place des Lices, a short walk away. Our favourite spot might be the master suite – it's a little oasis above the bustling city streets – slide into the freestanding tub to relax after a day exploring the Musée des Beaux-Arts, then sink into your soft sheets for a good night’s sleep.
 
When you’re ready to explore, grab a croissant from your local boulangerie, then stroll along the banks of the River Vilaine. Next, sample some local Briton delicacies and regional specialities at an authentic bistrot before catching a performance at the Rennes Opera House.

A Standing Ovation

Sound System

This home is a contemporary haven located in the heart of the city, yet sheltered from the hustle and bustle. Floating above the Place des Lices, this entirely renovated complex is a modern retreat. A wash of natural light enters through the towering windows, creating a calm ambience. Pop your feet up on the chaise sofa and admire the beautifully restored fireplace. A wonderful social space, enjoy a spread on the breakfast bar and reminisce about your day, all you need is a bottle of fine French wine to complete the meal. The clean design of the interiors flows perfectly into the bedrooms – crisp white sheets and golden accents give this home a little touch of luxury. 

On waking in the morning, be sure to switch on your coffee machine to set you up for the day. Although if a fresh barista-made coffee is your preference, you won't have to stray far from your doorstep before you reach your local cafe. If you fancy a little fresh air, the outdoor terrace space is decorated with pretty hanging lights and seating space, should you like to enjoy five minutes of peace. A real mini slice of luxury in the centre of Rennes.
