Castel Jolly
Chez
Marie Jolly
Castel Jolly, a 19th-century mansion that has been tastefully redesigned, combines period furniture with contemporary design. Books, a piano, a large garden, pétanque under the garlands, and fresh eggs from the chickens... A peaceful haven in the heart of Rennes, a stone's throw from Thabor Park.
A 19th-century mansion is given a new lease of life under the guidance of an inspired architect. This is achieved with the right mix of antique furniture and contemporary designer pieces, books to read by the fireside during winter, a piano to play a few chords on, a large city garden with century-old trees, palm trees (yes, palm trees thrive in Brittany!) and wisteria, a pétanque court with fairy lights... and three hens for fresh eggs... In the heart of Rennes, close to Thabor Park and Place des Lices but secluded enough to offer peace and quiet, Castel Jolly is the perfect place to (re)discover the Breton capital...
