We have all had an amazing time at this property. Stephanie was fantastic with communication in the run up to our trip, and once we arrived we couldn't have had a better time. The location was ideal and there was plenty of space for all of us to relax and spend time together. I miss it already!

We wanted somewhere special to celebrate our 50th Anniversary with three generations of our family (7 adults and 4 children). Gite des Orfeuilles met and exceeded our expectations. The setting is remote but incredibly tranquil, secluded and beautiful. It is a bit of a trek to the nearest supermarkets but we somehow turned this into an 'event'. Daily bread deliveries are reliable and early - and we discovered that the boulangerie also makes fantastic croissant, pain au chocolate and other goodies. .
The gite complex offered everything we needed to be self-contained and fully occupied. We were incredibly lucky with the weather, so the pool was in constant use, but there were plenty of other diversions on offer for our grandchildren (such as boule, tennis, fishing, table tennis and space for the many games we brought with us) - and the separation from neighbours meant we never worried about the noise the kids made. The situation is also perfect for outings to sightsee, canoe and soak up the Loire/Cher region.
Stephanie and David are charming, attentive and effective hosts. The arrival chat was friendly, informative and helpful, as were the information book and tourist leaflets in the house. Later in the week minor problems were quickly and effectively resolved without fuss. Checking out was straightforward - and it felt a little like saying goodbye to newly made friends.
If this is the sort of break you are looking for, I can't recommend it highly enough; we loved it..

Family holiday
This house was perfect for a big family gathering. The pool was great, the house was well stocked with plates and glasses etc. and having two separate houses made it very easy for all age groups. Large comfy beds, lots of bathrooms. Thank you!

Great family vacation
The property is ideal for families with 2 spacious homes to allow for great family enjoyment. We all enjoyed the large property and especially the pool where the kids spent a lot of their time. You must order the baguettes and the croissants to complete the experience. Stephanie and David are excellent hosts.

Relaxing stay in a serene property
We stayed at this beautiful house with four adults and two children and thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing stay. The property beautifully set in the forest, but a short drive from everything the local area has to offer. Stephanie was a wonderful host and great communication throughout. The children loved the pony riding at the beautiful equestrian centre next to the property. High recommend.

Stars, bats and wine
From the start we had very good communication with Stéphanie. The property is as described on the website. Clean, very spacious, rural, comfortable beds, beautifully furnished. The barn with it’s games space, including table tennis and table football was a bonus for the children. The adults hardly used the indoor space at all except for preparing food and sleeping. Kitchen very well equipped. The pool was well used by all. Sitting out every evening sipping wine as we waited for the stars and bats to appear was fab.

This charming traditional farmhouse and barn were absolutely perfect for the 11 of us. Comfortable accommodation with excellent bathroom facilities and a wonderful communal kitchen area were exactly what we required for the two families.
The pool was an absolute necessity especially given the extreme heat. Definitely recommended for those large groups wanting to escape from everyday life pressure.

Our stay at Gîte des orfeuilles was fantastic. Stephanie is very nice, very helpful and friendly. The houses were clean, beautiful and fully equipped. We were a group of 11 and had a great time in this property. It is close to many wineries and castles, and there is a farm with horses 5 mins away.

Exceptionnel et magique !!
Nous avons séjourné en famille et avec des amis dans la propriété de Stéphanie du 11 au 25 Juillet 2020.
Les maisons se trouvent au milieu d'une clairière entourée d'arbres et d'animaux sauvages.
Ces dernières sont très confortables et parfaitement équipées.
Le domaine de Stéphanie s'étend sur plusieurs hectares ou vous êtes libres de courir, de faire du vélo, de vous balader, de pêcher et de faire du tennis.
C'est un véritable paradis pour ceux qui sont en quête de vacances sportives et en contact permanent avec la nature.
Stéphanie est très avenante et aux petits soins pour ses hôtes.
Les maisons sont d'une grande propreté et la literie excellente.
Ici tout n'est que luxe, calme et volupté.
Nous y retournerons.......

Un "cinq étoiles" au vert
Nous avons bénéficié d'un accueil très chaleureux, attentif, ici on se sent en famille.
Le logement est tout confort, très calme, en pleine nature. Déco soignée. Équipements très complets et literie confortable.
L'espace ne manque pas, même nombreux il y a de quoi s'isoler. Mais aussi de quoi remplir les journées : piscine, lecture, jeux de société, baby foot, ping-pong, télé ... et toutes infos sur les grands sites de visite du Val de Loire.
Un grand bain de quiétude, de repos, de détente.

Comment résumer la semaine passée au gîte des Orfeuilles ? Cadre enchanteur au milieu d'une carrière, gîte très bien situé à proximité des châteaux de la vallée de la Loire, décoration de bon goût, cuisine très pratique, piscine très appréciée, étangs poissonneux, propriétaires accueillants et de bon conseil, en plus nous avons eu un temps splendide, bref rien à dire tout fût parfait pour les 6 couples de 60 à 65 ans qui avons logé aux Orfeuilles au début juillet.
