Le Chantoiseau

Close to sailing, windsurfing, and more, this smoke-free vacation home brings it all within reach. Jump into your car and make short work of the 6-minute drive to Maison de la Culture Le Corbusier or the 11-minute drive to Gorges de la Loire (and enjoy the property's convenient onsite parking in the meantime).

After you return to this 775-sq-ft vacation home, unwind in the garden or sip a drink on the deck or patio, and don't forget about the outdoor furniture. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the WiFi and TV.

This 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom rental features a BBQ grill and a desk. The kitchen is equipped with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And there is a laundromat nearby so you can pack a bit lighter.
