Like staying in a story book home!
We arrived and were greeted by our host who showed us around. the building outside and in was exactly what we hoped. A rustic French country home (at least this American's pictures a country home). Plenty of room for all of us and space to eat outside or in. Walked down by the river, visited all the castles. Wonderful stay. He was patient with my husband's French, very friendly. highly recommend this place.

Great holiday location
The property is in a fantastic location to visit Château castles around the Loire. My family of 5 were very comfortable, the house was clean and spacious, and the owners helpful and friendly. We highly recommend staying here.

Quaint, Quiet, Rustic
Quiet. Nice semi-rural location a short distance between two small villages with boulangeries and groceries. 10-15 min drive to Amboise with chateau, many restaurants, and a very large Sunday market. Hosts are pleasant & helpful. Internet can be a little intermittent at times. Easy parking.

Gite rustique fonctionnel et confortable au calme avec tout ce qu'il faut. La literie est de très bonne qualité, top avec les enfants ( attention à l'escalier)! Ils ont apprécié le trampoline la balancoire leur grande chambre les jeux les BD. Proprietaires au petits soins. C'est une bonne adresse !

Très agréable séjour
Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans ce gîte à la campagne. C'est une maison ancienne qui est bien équipée, son charme nous a beaucoup plu et sa situation est parfaite pour visiter les châteaux et faire des promenades au bord du cher. Marie-Pierre et gilles nous ont très bien accueillis, nous reviendrons avec plaisir aux beaux jours.

Un agréable weekend
Nous avons passés un agréable séjour. Le village de Bléré est plaisant et nous avons apprécié le chateau de Nitray et la balade au bord du Cher. L'escalier est certes escarpé mais les chambres à l'étage sont spacieuses. Le logement est bien équipé et nous avons eu la chance de pouvoir profiter de l'extérieur car il faisait beau.

Maison "dans son jus"
Après une semaine passée dans cette location, très surprise de la note élevée de ce gîte. Maison bien située pour visiter les châteaux de la Loire. En revanche, elle est "dans son jus" aucun investissement pour que les locataires se sentent bien. La maison dispose du minimum de confort pour accueillir : canapé et lits anciens inconfortables, lave vaisselle qui ne semble pas répondre aux normes et donne des décharges électriques, moisissures dans la salle de bain, peu adapté aux enfants en bas âge.
