About this property

Old barn renovated like a fairy tale

The barn has been nicknamed Narnia with a trompe l'oeil outside as inside appearances can be deceptive as a wall may actually be a door...

Narnia is a magical and warm place that promises you a unique moment out of time.

The interior has an area of 85m2, with its garden of 250m2, ideal for a family stay with children, because multiple, active are to do.

Narnia is located in a small village Le Grand Pressiny with its historic castle dedicated to prehistory, overlooking the valley of the Claise.
The city center with all its amenities (shops, restaurants, bars, pharmacy, small supermarket ...) is 5 minutes walk.

Charming house. Nancy has done a really nice job with the decor. We really enjoyed our 6 days Easy walking distance to boulangerie, epicerie/grocery, and café/bars, and campsite where the rest of our family was staying. Small market Thursday morning with meat, fish, cheese, veg. Swim in the river at nearby Lesigny. Easy self checkin with lock box. Can pull up onto kerb to unload suitcases, then follow one way system to park around back in communal field (plenty of spaces). House and kitchen very well equipped, with dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. Fast wifi. A few issues upon arrival due to the power breaker being off, but Nancy was easy to get hold of via phone/text and all issues quickly resolved.

Going back in time!

This really is a Narnia house- the entrance is somewhat deceptive because once you get inside it is quite magical. Not only has the owner, Nancy, gathered together a lot of fascinating French antiques, but it is also a very comfortable house with every modern appliance you can think of. We didn’t use the garden much as we had a lot of rain but it is pretty, enclosed and safe for our dog. The village is within easy walking distance and has a baker!

Schöne Weihnachten in einem Märchenhaus

Wir hatten eine wunderbare gemütliche Zeit in diesem wunderschönen Haus. Schön war auch der Weihnachtsbaum und viele Kerzen im ganzen Haus. Das Kaminfeuer hat immer für eine gemütliche Behaglichkeit gesorgt. Es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Wir konnten viele Wanderungen unternehmen und Städte besuchen. Es gibt gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, Restaurants und Cafés. Wir bedanken uns herzlich bei Nancy für die warme Begrüßung. Martina & Otto

O beau pays de la Touraine !

Nous avons passés un agréable séjour en famille dans un hébergement rénové avec beaucoup de cachet et bien situé dans une région au patrimoine extrêmement riche. L'endroit est idéal pour se ressourcer au calme et profiter de toutes les richesses du terroir local et d'excursions culturelles dans les environs autour de la vallée de l'Indre dominée par la cité royale de Loches. Notre hôte a été très réactive lorsque nous en avons eu besoin et facilement joignable.
