    The gite was lovely, very large, with 2 double bedrooms, a family bathroom upstairs and a shower room downstairs. It was remarkably quiet & peaceful, except during the thunderstorm! The owners live next door and were very friendly and approachable.

Our house is in a quiet commune surrounded by glorious wooded countryside. An amazing area for walking, cycling and just chilling out. Guests come here to relax and visit the local area. The house is an old traditional longere and we have kept many original features, decorating it in a modern style. It is self contained and we provide everything for a comfortable and pleasant stay. A dedicated terrace area where you can enjoy a leisurely barbecue is just a step out of the door.
We love to meet and greet our guests from whatever corner of the world they come. We know the area well and can give lots of helpful tourist information.
We are only 14 Kms from Loches, an historic market town full of interesting things to do and see. There are twice weekly markets, the walled cite medieval, a fascinating stone quarry visit, an amazing aqua centre and a 9 hole golf course. We are also well placed for guests to visit the vineyards and chateaux of the Loire Valley, Chenonceaux, Villandry, Ambroise to name a few. The famous Clos Luce is within easy driving distance. This was the last residence of Leonardo de Vinci, and makes for a fascinating day out. Beauval Zoo with its new baby panda is also worth a visit.
