Belle retraite romantique avec piscine privée, offrant la paix et la tranquillité

Nos accueillants ont été plein de petites attentions « adorables » merci merci à eux!

This property is well equipped and tastefully done. The owners were great. They allowed us to have the privacy needed and yet available at any request necessary. The location gives plenty of choices to visit markets, small villages and many chateaux. Just what we needed. Thank you The Renauds

A property created with real love and care, and it shows. Clean and comfortable with a good bed, private parking for our vintage car, surrounded by a lovely garden with a private bit for the gite and looking out over woods and farmland. Lots of extras provided (bikes, loungers, barbicue etc) and the most delightful host (and dogs) who made us really welcome. We didn't want to leave and can't wait to come back again. It would make an ideal base throughout the year for walkers and cyclists. Friendly British-run cafe in the local village used by a good mixture of locals and incomers.

The owners, Jo and Paul, live adjoined to this quaint gite. They manage to strike that balance, between being attentive, helpful and available to meet all reasonable needs, and yet never intrusive. They will offer advice on local amenities and attractions, let you know details of local events and direct you to the best vineyards to visit! Kargo, the rescue dog also knows exactly how to behave with visitors and in our case, he always gave us a very waggy tail when we arrived 'home'! As a keen angler, Paul advised me on several good spots to spend a day in beautiful surroundings with a typical French picnic but he also managed to enter me into a local fishing competition! Local to the gite, you can walk or cycle through shady lanes and through forest. Fruit and vegetables are farmed and sold locally, the restaurant in Parcay-Les-Pins is good value and a must-see for me was the museum to sculptor, Jules Desbois: "De tous, la sculpture est l'art le plus accessible" - Jules Desbois (1851 - 1935) A lovely space to exhibit the work of one France's best 'Rodinesque' artists. In addition, for culture-vultures, within a short drive in any direction, you will find a beautiful chateau around every bend- or so it seems. We became habitual chateau-visitors! Francophile couples looking for a rural retreat will love this little haven for relaxation!

We have just spent a phenomenal 10 days at this venue, and it is out of this world - literally. right in the heart of rural France; the loudest noise is the birds, and the sound a lizard makes, scurrying across the chippings! And yet, it seems, the gite is only about half an hour away from everything: Chateaux, Wine 'caves', Troglodyte dwellings, Abbey, gardens, and the odd Zoo, not to mention, some really good places to eat (and drink!), and on roads which only see about half a dozen cars an hour. The Gite was very well equipped, and we found it spotless. Coupled with all this is the charming hospitality of its owner, Jo, for whom it seems, nothing is too much trouble, be it for information about the gite or the locality. All in all, a prize package, and well worth the money!

We arrived at Le Petite Maison de Sue to a very warm welcome from Jo and Paul and some complimentary groceries. The gite had everything that we needed and more for a perfect relaxed holiday. A real home from home.The bed was very comfortable with high quality bed linen which made for a very restful nights sleep.There were views across the fields and countryside that we found very relaxing too. The gite is within a short drive on very quiet roads (in May) to all of the lovely attractions of the Loire Valley. Fontevraud and Villandry being two of our favourites. We borrowed bikes and explored the local lake through quiet forest and countryside paths. I would thoroughly recommend a stay at this lovely property.
