An old-French fashion house, in a quiet village, perfect to discover the Loire Valley Châteaux (1h by train - 2.5h by car from Paris)
Our traditionnal house is located in a small village close to the Loire Valley (UNESCO word heritage), also named “The Garden of France”. The location is an ideal starting point to visit the vineyards and the châteaux of the Loire: Chateau of Chenonceau, Villandry, Chambord,..and others (we still didn't visit all of them).

The village has all the main facilities and is at 10 km to Tours, known for the pleasures of the table and its historical heritage (plus a TGV station - 1h to Paris). Schools are particularly friendly in our village.
The house is old-fashioned but renovated with all modern equipment: a large living-room with boom beam and a 18th-century fireplace, a confortable and functional kitchen, 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. The house is surrounded by a vast garden, bordering a forest.
There is a private parking inside, a patio perfect for barbecue.
We are a family with 3 children so the house is well adjusted to families.
Bikes (adult/kid) are availables, as well as a canoe.

GB52213The beautiful and large home and garden of Leslie and Antoine gave the perfect backdrop for a relaxing, yet varied, family holiday. Leslie and Antoine were always very welcoming and helpful, and everything was perfect when we returned to our home, making this an excellent experience. We could not ask for more and give our highest recommendations!
