Proximity to Attractions

Our location is perfectly situated for easy access to the historic Dinan Port and Rue du Jerzual, where you can fully immerse yourself in Dinan’s rich history and culture. After enjoying the scenic port, challenge yourself with the climb up Rue de Petit Fort and Rue du Jerzual, connecting the port to the town above.

It also provides great photo opportunities!
