La Marelle is easily reached by road from one of the many ferry ports on the Brittany and Normandy coasts. Nearest to the house is St Malo, only about 45 minutes drive. Caen and Cherbourg are both just under two hours away. These three are all served by Brittany Ferries -- see the link below.
For a much more inexpensive crossing but a longer drive (about 5 hours) take a ferry to Calais or Boulogne. We highly recommend Speed Ferries from Dover to Boulogne which can cost less than £50 return.
A new company, LD Ferries, now offers inexpensive crossings from Portsmouth to Le Havre -- about 3 hours from La Marelle.
If you prefer to fly and hire a car when you get there, the nearest airport is Dinard, just 45 minutes from the house and served by Ryanair who sometimes offer very cheap flights. There is also an airport at Rennes, less than an hour away, now served by Flybe from Southampton. Cars can be hired inexpensively at both these airports, and the airlines offer good discounts on these.
