    A lovely conversion of an old building, next door to the hostess, but private nonetheless. We found it comfortable for a short break, and the main room felt quite spacious, but the bathroom is off the kitchen, at the opposite end of the property to the bedroom: there are two of steep steps between the living room and kitchen and another into the bathroom. The property was very difficult to find, some distance from the main village, towards the end of a long road, but our hostess, who is lovely, came out to greet us and show us around. The village itself had little to offer, but there are plenty of places to visit nearby. We spent some time in Loches and visited the Chateau de Brézé, which is truly astonishing.

    Very comfortable and very central to a lot of places of interest. Bed very comfortable. Although she lives next door we were given privacy. The pool was great to cool down in when it got really hot. Would recommend it.

    This property was spotlessly clean, very comfortable and in an attractive and peaceful area. The swimming pool was at the perfect temperature, very clean with attractive flower beds. Several chateaux are within easy reach. We visited Villandry and Azay le Rideau which were interesting and with beautiful gardens. It was nice to have a private garden with loungers, table and chairs. Amelie was readily contactable by email and phone. The dogs are very friendly but one does come into the garden so, if you really don't like dogs, it may not be for you. We loved it, thought it good value for money, and may book again.

    All was lovely, just for the kids the NOT being able to use the pool was very disappointing. I specifically booked it for the availability of the pool. We asked a few times (because you may only use the pool when the owner is present and she works full time) but according to the owner it was too cold, it was around 20 degrees (that is far from cold for us). On the last day we never saw the owner, it was 23 degrees, so no option to even ask. Maybe I missed this explanation in the French text. The website doesn’t give language options, unless you start a new search. All other was great: lovely house, nice beds, cute little garden, etc.

    This gite is ideal for exploring this part of the Loire Valley, a few km from the picturesque town of Langeais. Good for a couple or young family, well equipped, small private garden with BBQ

    We stayed five nights. It was the first time we had booked a cottage to stay more than a couple of nights. We are so pleased we did. The cottage had everything we needed. It was quiet and peaceful. Amelie and her father were very friendly and helpful.
