Gîte au coeur des Châteaux de la Loire - 3km de Villandry LoireValley chateau

This is a special property. Unique, historic building and decor. We also loved the garden and the peaceful setting. Perfect complement to our time in the Loire Valley. The owners were also kind and friendly.

A Beautiful historic Property in the heart of Loire Valley. A great location to explore all of the Chateaux of the region and return in the evening and feel like you’re experiencing history by just staying there. Well equipped kitchen, wonderful bathrooms, and comfortable bedrooms.

We absolutely loved our stay here. The property is full of history, character and was totally immaculate, which for an old building with so many fabulous ornaments and books etc, is no mean feat! Fantastic location. So much to do and so incredibly beautiful. I am very glad however, that even though the property technically sleeps 6, that we were just a couple and could use the wonderful main bedroom and bathroom. Unfortunately, the two other bedrooms are rendered almost entirely useless by the fact that they do not have either shutters, or curtains. Not only is light a big issue, but the fact that these bedrooms are on the ground floor, in a fairly communal situation, privacy is a huge problem. The bathroom servicing these two rooms is also very dated when compared with the master bathroom. Thankfully for us this was not an issue and we just enjoyed the truly spectacular main bedroom and bathroom, but one couple would be very disappointed if you were two couples. Also worth noting, the outside space is not directly off the property but it is lovely nonetheless. All in all a wonderful, interesting place to stay in a great location. Would definitely go back!

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful old country house - we felt transported back in time! Perfect location and setting, too. The beds were very comfortable (and grand :), and my husband enjoyed playing the grand piano. We were warmly welcomed and hope to return one day!

we stayed for a long weekend. the property was very spacious and the views were amazing. Quiet location but near to a really pretty village. our hosts were friendly and helpful. would definately stay again. Plenty of places to explore in the area.

We loved every minute of our stay here. We wish we could stay longer. Our hosts were lovely and helpful and their home was so beautiful. Not a perfectly oiled hotel like relais&châteaux but a quirky, beautiful and authentic ancient home. We loved the creaks and the antiques and the low door clearance and the wild gardens. The remodels were tastefully done. It was a perfect location for touring the chateaux's of the Loire. Truly , it was a marvelous experience. We will be back if they will have us!
