Your gite has its own large private fenced garden. The shared heated pool is set in beautiful gardens that are planted to provide a quiet & peaceful place for you to relax and enjoy your stay - simply arrive, put down your bags, open a chilled bottle of Vouvray, pull up a lounger, take a breath & ease into your holiday! The space We know how important location is to get the best from your holiday, so we know you will enjoy your stay with us at Le Bouchet and we only have two gites at Le Bouchet, each with their own private landscaped areas, to make sure you have as peaceful and relaxing time as possible. The gites location makes it perfect for seeing lots of the Loire chateaux but there are also lots of other things to see and do further south, locally and in the Vienne. The local area is a rich haven for wildlife, with red deer and wild boar roaming around and buzzards crying out as they circle overhead; herons and many different types of wild birds are often seen in and around the local lake. We have tried to extend that environment into the gardens at Le Bouchet which are extensively landscaped and planted to attract the wildlife while at the same time offering you the amenities you need to enjoy your holiday, the large heated pool with its own terrace where you can keep an eye on the little ones, a picnic area overlooking the pool and a play area with swing, slide and goals for a game of football.
