Wonderful stay
Philippe's place is idyllic. We loved sitting under the willow tree in the garden and swimming in the river. Highly recommended!

Magnifique!! Just what we were looking for as a family wanting self catering in a rural setting.
Philippe was very welcoming and very helpful in advising what to see in the surrounding areas. Great place to base yourself for visiting the Loire Valley if you are looking for self catering and a rural setting. The historic building had everything needed for a self catering accommodation and Philippe has created a great ambiance, particularly the dining table under the willow tree and the outdoor lounge area. We enjoyed swimming in the river and BBQ's every evening. No wifi which the kids found frustrating and great for the adults wanting to escape. Will definitely return next time we explore the Loire Valley again.

Un séjour paradisiaque
Une belle expérience de sérénité dans un lieu plein de charme. Grâce à Philippe dont l'accueil et la disponibilité sont bienveillants, nous avons passé un excellent moment en couple et en famille. Tous ont été ravis et enchantés, du jardin, des animaux, des baignades dans l'Indre et du logement bien équipé et atypique. Nous reviendrons avec plaisir.

La parenthèse enchantée
Nous avons passé une merveilleuse semaine dans le gîte de Philippe. La maison, le jardin incroyable, les aménagements extérieurs, le petit ponton sur l'Indre, les animaux (poules, oies, canards) en liberté. Un cadre enchanteur, au calme, en pleine nature. Nous avons été accueilli chaleureusement par notre hôte, avec des chouquettes maison et des rafraîchissements, Philippe est adorable, toujours de bons conseils pour les visites à faire et les bons plans gastronomiques du coin ;) Le gîte est idéalement situé pour les visites, Loches et sa cité royale est à peine à 10 min en voiture. 30 min pour Chenonceau, 40 min pour Azay ou Amboise. Quelques beaux villages alentours ... bref, on ne s'ennuie pas. Et puis si vous n'avez pas envie de prendre la voiture, une escapade en vélo ou en barque depuis le gîte reste possible, c'est un vrai plus ! Vraiment, une excellente adresse que nous avons adoré ainsi que nos filles qui ont pris un plaisir immense à galoper dans l'immense jardin, au contact des animaux. Nous espérons y revenir prochainement pour visiter d'autres châteaux.

Wonderful
We had a wonderful week at Philippes guest house and we enjoyed every second of it. He and his animals welcomed us with whole-hearted with coffee and cake in his beautiful garden. You can swim in the river at the end of his property and even can use a canoe 24/7 to discover river Indre. 100% recommendation for people who seek some rest and peace in Loire valley.

Un très agréable séjour dans un petit paradis
Nous étions fatigués en arrivant, notre hôte nous a réservé un accueil chaleureux et gourmand. Notre programme pour la semaine état chargé, le grand saule nous a accueilli et redonné des forces à l'heure des repas. Il a fait très chaud, la riviére nous a rafraichis. Nous avions envie d'escapades Nature, les vélos et le canoé étaient à notre disposition. Nous avons pu faire tout ce que nous voulions, visiter de nombreux villages et châteaux, et chaque soir profiter d'un havre de paix, simple mais tout aussi enchanteur. Merci Philippe!

Rust, groen en water. Heerlijk
Het verblijf is veel meer dan het huisje. Ook de tafel onder de prachtige treurwilg, de overkapping bij het gras en en langs de oever van de Indre hoort erbij en maakt het verblijf erg aangenaam. Het huisje is op leeftijd waardoor alles wat scheef is maar verder een basisverblijf waar alles aanwezig is. Een aparte ruimte waar de fietsen konden staan en Prettig contact met de host Philippe . De aanwezigheid van de 2 maanden oude gans Zou-Zou was bijzonder en vermakelijk. We zouden zo nog een keer gaan.
