About this house rental

Welcome to our house, a beautifully restored 200 year old property which blends a mix of modern decor with original features. The tasteful and high quality renovation was recognised in a feature in Living France magazine.

The property is located in a tranquil location, in a hamlet 1 mile from the village of Vaas, which provides a shop, boulangerie, charcuterie, two bars and a very good restaurant. Vaas is on the Le Loir river, which provides opportunities for kayaking. Slightly further away is the bustling small town of Chateau Du Loire (6 miles) which has a fabulous range of shops, cafe's, restaurants and other amenities, as well as a fantastic Saturday market, and Le Lude (8 miles) which includes a fabulous Chateau.

The main A28 motorway is only 4 miles away, placing the Channel Ports of Caen (2hrs) and St Malo (2.5hrs) and the Channel Tunnel (4.5hrs) within easy reach. Tours airport provides regular flights to London Stansted and is an easy drive of 40 minutes.

Why not explore the wonderful Loire vineyards from Muscadet in the West to Sancerre in the East, with close proximity to the wonderful wines from Bourgueil, Touraine and Vouvray. If you're interested in visiting the world famous chateaux, there are plentiful options to visit during your stay. The house is located equal distance between the fascinating cities of Tours and Le Mans. Both can be visited by car or by train using the local railway station at Vaas which is within a 20 minute walk. For the more adventurous, take a train to Le Mans and then hop on the 1 hr TGV service to Paris for a short mini break. For any petrol heads, the World famous Le Mans race circuit is only a 25 minute drive away and hosts events including the 24 hour race, Classic and MotoGP throughout the year.

For those guests wanting to relax and recharge the batteries, the property looks out onto approx. 1/2 acre of well kept mature private gardens. The house is surrounded by rich agricultural land, and is only 100 meters from the official Loir Cycleway which offers a fabulous way of exploring the local area. The rear garden is a real sun trap, loungers and patio furniture are provided as well as a bbq to enjoy whilst sampling one of the excellent local wines. Private off road parking is provided for our guests.

    We spent a very enjoyable and relaxing week in this comfortable gite. It was well equipped with a large, lovely garden, which was perfect for us and our dog. The gite is ideally situated in a quiet hamlet, 15 minutes walk from the nearest small town, which has a good shop and a couple of friendly bars, restaurant and boulangerie. There are several interesting towns and smaller chateaux within 15 to 30 minutes drive. Overall an excellent base from which to explore the wider Loire region. Also a perfect location for those keen on cycling, running and fishing. Our host, Alex was very friendly and accommodating.

    Rural location, no wifi, poor 4g and ok 3g coverage....exactly what we were looking for. Village is in poor repair, there is nothing in it...but this is exactly as described. Local towns, supermarkets etc within 15-20 minute drive.

    First time taking the car to France we were very lucky to have chosen this fantastic gite. Very pretty, comfortable and well equipped. South facing garden was an added bonus. A short walk from the village and an easy drive to major supermarkets. Great location for day trips including Tours and Le Mons. To top this all off we had the perfect host in Alex.

    Myself and my partner had a lovely stay in this Gite, it was immaculately maintained and had a beautiful garden that we could use. It is very peaceful and the location is perfect for wine lovers with a number of vineyards locally. Hosts were very helpful and gave good advice about the local area and places to visit. We visited Chateau's that were just a short distance away. There really is so much to see in this beautiful area. We can't wait to return again.

    Lovely Gite in a beautiful area of France

    We have enjoyed a wonderful week in the peaceful area of the Loir. La Petite Cachette was exactly as we imagined from the description of the property when we booked. The Gite is an old piggery which has been beautifully converted into an attractive holiday home. Inside the Gite the décor is clean and modern, it is well equipped and has everything you need, and more for a holiday. The large garden outside is perfect for relaxing during the day or enjoying a BBQ and glass of wine in the evening. The many and varied animal sounds remind you that you are in a rural setting. The house is situated in Les Halles which is a small hamlet a mile or so from the local town of Vaas where there are a few small shops and a pretty riverside to explore. It is also about twenty minutes from an enormous supermarket in Chateau du Loir. The location is perfect for exploring the many wonderful sights of the Loir and Loire areas. Our highlights were La Lude and La Fleche to the west, Vendome to the East and the lovely town of Saumur (great wine tasting area) in the South. Each of these towns were extremely pretty and full of character, and a plus for us was that they were not as busy/touristy as some larger towns on the Loire. The Gite is also well situated for Le Mans. Overall it was a great place for a holiday. Huge thanks to Alex and Andy who were great hosts, gave us lots of tips and information on the area and also tried very hard to befriend our grumpy dog, Daisy.

    A well appointed gite in peaceful surroundings
    A well appointed gite in peaceful surroundings
    Our stay was just what we needed; a peaceful refuge from the stresses of everyday life. The gite was spotlessly clean, and contained every conceivable aid for cooking, relaxing, and navigating around the area. Best of all was sitting in the garden watching the wildlife, from mini murmurations of starlings and the flocks of chattering sparrows, to the antics of a vole gathering food and a surprise attack from a sparrow hawk. We loved the Chateau at Langeais, and the opportunities for wine tasting along the Loire We would like to return next year, and stay for longer!
