    It was our first time staying in a troglodyte, and it was fun! Our host was very helpful and communicated with us easily, having all of her documents in English. You have to be in shape to access the cave with the steep stairs, but we liked the workout. The views from this place were amazing!

    We checked a very cool box by starting in this adorable troglodyte apartment. The property manager was accommodating and offered great communication, going out of her way to meet us outside so we knew exactly where to go. This is a unique apartment with beautiful views! We would definitely do this again! Highly recommend!

    Unique opportunity to stay in a Troglodyte. View is worth the climb. Easily found parking. Great location - used as base to tour the Loire valley. Would stay again if we return to the area.

    We stayed here for six nights and would definitely stay again. The gite is exactly as it was portrayed in the photos. Julie, our host, was very helpful and responsive to our questions. The gite was comfortable with everything needed for two people. We loved sitting out on the terrace and looking out over the river while having breakfast or an Apero. There is a wonderful bakery in the center of town for getting morning croissant, and we had a fabulous dinner at a local restaurant called Le Part Belle. There were also some lovely walking trails around the town, both along the river and up in the vineyards, that we enjoyed. It is a little hike up to the gite, but it was a good way to get in more steps. Parking was safe and easy down on the Quai. Thank you!

    What a wonderful experience. The village is lovely, the Gite is exactly how described: quaint, spacious, and even bright! 400m from a patisseries, small grocery, and bus stop with easy access to Tours. Julie is warm, accessible, and very helpful. Place is perfect for a couple, and even with a small child. HIGHLY recommend...and am already thinking how I can return with family next time!
