If your idea of a pleasant stay is in a studio apartment, then this private accommodation is meant for you. Just 7km (4.5 miles) away from the sea, this vacation rental is a pleasing blend of comfort as well as an ideal location.

3. Cozy guesthouse (from USD 118)
A French cottage set against a rich landscape of the countryside, with a windmill dominating the front and green gardens stretched across. Does this description match a storybook illustration? Well, it’s just that! This Airbnb vacation rental is minimalistic, elegant, and extremely hospitable. Four furnished bedrooms with a bed each, this one can house up to six guests. Add to the affair and fire up the barbecue grill installed in a small garden right outside and enjoy the lovely Dol air strewn with an aroma of delicious charred snacks. The pictures don’t measure up to the actual beauty of this property even by half, so do go ahead and opt for this one for a deeply satisfying experience.

4. Home away from home (from USD 59)
Stay in this quiet, clean private house for a fully value-for-money experience. Its carefully done up interiors and serene surroundings make this a top choice for travellers. If previously-hosted guests are to be believed, the host is extremely helpful and attentive. Also, the heating system is great, so don’t fetter if you’re a little less tolerant of the cold. What’s more? It sits at the foot of the cliffs of Mt Dol, so relaxing walks leading up to pretty views are guaranteed. No need for a vehicle, it’s a walkable distance. If you’re zeroing down on this one, we suggest you get in touch with the host for accurate directions to the property. Before that, book it right away!

8. Stately and simplistic home
Located about 700m (765 yards) away from the city centre of Dol-de-Bretagne is this quiet and private Airbnb vacation rental. Equipped with a bath and bed for two, the hosts ensure that your stay here is relaxing and welcoming. You can grab a mug of coffee and take a walk in their small, lush garden or enjoy a pleasing vista of the French skies from their terrace. A little birdie also tells us that the food served by the hosts is simply exquisite. Warm croissants, crisp baguettes, wholesome salads, and their homemade jams (salivating, already?) are some of the various dishes they’ve impressed their guests with. Are you considering this property or need we say more?

10. Downtown apartment
For a sophisticated and well-equipped Airbnb vacation rental, this apartment is perfect. Located in downtown Dol and just half an hour’s drive from St Malo and Mont St Michel, it is sufficient for six guests, with three beds over two large bedrooms. The calm neighbourhood suits perfectly after an entire day of traversing about. Another unique facet is the view of a lovely, lush private garden from the living room where you can read a book or listen to music. Or, if it suits, pick up a ball and engage in some sports with the kids; let that adrenaline kick in! Please note, there’s no WiFi available at this property, so enjoy the true essence of vacationing as you travel back into antiquity, enjoying your days without technology. Friendly hosts, flexible check-in options, clean interiors, and a well-stocked kitchen, this one’s the stuff of memorable vacations!

Vicinity also doesn't disappoint
Not just Dol but St Malo and Mont St Michel are also a vacationer’s delight. Hop on a bus or steer your car and tour the famous Mont St Michel. Uniquely rising out of the sea like an enchanted island, it is very much an icon of Western France. Soak in the crisp air and enjoy a stunning vista of the coastline from the Bela du Mont St Michel or discover the exceptional Abbey church. We hear that the town’s a life-like version of Hogwarts, so all you Potterheads, hurry! Once a fortified island, St Malo is another delight. Head to the Cathedrale St Vincent for an outstanding work of architecture or walk up the stairs by the Porte St Vincent and walk clockwise to check out the 15th-century Grande Porte. Both towns are a web of cobbled streets strewn with cafes, souvenir shops, and crêperies, so go on and uncover the old-worldly charm of these French towns.
