Authentique longère pleine de charme, entre châteaux Chambord, Cheverny et Blois

We had a wonderful stay here as a family of five exploring the chateaux of the Loire valley. The house is spacious and bright and had everything we needed. The location is great for seeing the chateaux by car. Highly recommend. We didn’t want to leave!

We had a wonderful stay. The pictures online don't do it justice. When choosing locations in the Loire Valley, this spot is charming and gives you great access to bike to different chateaux and sights. Also, they have a very nice set of bikes for your use. Couldn't have been happier.

We were delighted with our 4 night stay. The cottage was very cosy, homely and characterful. There was slight confusion over the number of bathrooms. I think it said on the website that there are 5 but we only found 2 plus a downstairs toilet. Not that there is any problem with that. For our group of 5 people we had plenty of bathrooms. It was so good to have bikes available. We really enjoyed cycling along the Loire cycle track which is only half a mile away from the house. There were only children's helmets available, by the way, so it was useful that we had taken some adult hats. There are also bike hire shops fairly nearby I think. Communication with Agnes was easy and a great pleasure. We communicated by phone but she had also arranged for a charming neighbour to show us round and help with any problems - but there weren't any! Some condiments had been left for us as well as cleaning products and we were told to help ourselves to logs for the fire. We had all that we needed. Thank you Agnes.

Le gîte est très bien aménagé, et convient parfaitement à un séjour de 7 8 personnes , des jeux jouets sont a disposition , la cuisine est largement pourvue en matériel, de même du mobilier d'extérieur est a disposition,nous recommandons.

un des plus accueillant gite jamais loué. Pour les ados table de ping pong, baby foot ,panier de basket, et pour les adultes des caves pour déguster les productions locales et pour tous des vélos sans oublier le canoë et la piscine municipale surveillées sur le bord de Loire à un tarif de 2 € pour les enfants prix inimaginable en ile de france. Nous y reviendrons c'est certain Cordialement Danièle et Denis

Propriétaires très gentils et très à l'écoute. Malgré un temps maussade nous avons pu profiter des richesses de la région. La maison est assez grande pour que tout le monde y trouve ses aises; petit salon à l'étage très pratique. Les vélos, le babyfoot et le ping pong on bien servi aussi. L'ambiance de la maison est campagnarde avec une touche industrielle.

Charles and Agnes are great hosts - they met us on arrival and showed us around the property which is lovely. Definitely a quiet little village but so close to Blois you can find anything you need within a few miles. The beds were comfortable and the home is so quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed table tennis tournaments in the barn and bicycle rides around the area. The countryside is just beautiful with the Loire minutes away and the many chateaux a short drive away.

We loved this home and were so happy with the amount and distribution of the space. The town itself doesn’t have much, but it’s a short bike ride or drive to Blois, where you can find anything you need. You can also get to many castles by bike, even with kids, as the paths are mostly flat. The only issue we ran into was arriving on a holiday weekend from Asia and discovering that absolutely everything was closed during our first two days in town. Other than that, we had a wonderful time.

We loved our four nights in St Claude de Diray, and wish we could have stayed longer! This home is everything we could have hoped for, and more! There is even a play-space in the charming barn, including ping-pong, baby foot, and bicycles. (After each day of Chateau touring, our kids eagerly anticipated playing in the barn, and we especially loved riding bikes along the Seine in the evenings.) The spacious kitchen was great for cooking items purchased at the friendly local stores, and the courtyard was perfect for sipping wine from the local vineyard. Ideally situated in the Loire and near easy routes to all the region has to offer, this home was perfect!
