Many of our gîte guests have returned to enjoy our guest room for a few nights when passing through the Loire Valley. Our aim was to provide a ‘semi’ self-catering suite where guests could enjoy the all the benefits of a French Chambre d’Hôtes service, together with facilities to cater a light meal of local delicacies and keep delicious Loire wines perfectly chilled for an evening apéritif. The room is spacious, bright and beautifully appointed with elegant wood panelling, antique style furnishings and pale, quality linens, all in keeping with our lovingly restored 18th Century estate. To ensure that guests are as comfortable as possible, we have provided a king size bed with high quality linens and bedside tables with reading lamps. A cosy sofa makes for an easy way to relax after a day’s sight seeing with a selection of magazines and books to entertain and keep you informed of local places of interest and events. The en-suite shower room is stylish with quality fittings and high quality towels as well as items that you might not wish to carry with you, such as a hair dryer and complimentary hand and shower wash. There are plenty of hanging hooks and shelf space for your toiletry items too. Set in the courtyard garden and overlooking the upper grounds, the room is nestled beside a wonderfully fragrant wisteria and lavenders and has an outdoor terrace for al-fresco breakfast and apéritifs in the sunshine. Breakfast: Breakfast can be taken in your room or outside on your garden terrace. We bring breakfast to you, comprising a selection of fresh local bread and croissants, home made or local preserves, our own or local fruit in season and choice of fresh filter coffee, tea and fruit juice. For lunchtime and evening meals, you can’t better many of our local restaurants offering regional cuisine as well as wonderful Loire fish dishes. Our village café-bar offers great value lunchtime menus as well as ‘take home’ meals.
