Beautiful accommodation in a lovely setting. Great facilities (tennis, pool, sauna, jacuzzi), outdoor dining, barbecue, next to a river, lovely owners, close to a town that has good food outlets. Very peaceful, plenty of wildlife (deer, foxes, cormorants, kestrels). Very relaxing! Hostess very helpful in every way! Thanks for a very nice stay!

A peaceful gite in the grounds of a chateau!
The owner Jeanne-Claire is absolutely lovely and wants everything to be as easy, comfortable and relaxing as possible for her guests. She was so helpful and responsive every time we needed anything and it was a always a pleasure to chat and find out about the chateau and it’s history and the area. She was very sorry that the WiFi wasn’t working during our stay. If WiFi is important to you, it might be worth checking with her first.
The cottage is comfortable with a particularly easy and relaxing lliving room downstairs…but best of all is the outside space with view of the small river and bridge and forests beyond. There is a huge table for outside meals…particularly lovely in the evening when the light is pink and sun has set. The grounds of the chateau are lovely … with a couple of small lakes (shallow and not used for fishing when we were there in a hot and dry August) and a shared swimming pool and a fantastic tennis court. And table tennis! The pool cd be busy if both the gite guests and the chateau guests wanted to use it at the same time ….but it was never a problem. We had the pool to ourselves most of the time. This is a lovely holiday destination if you want to do very little. The English family holidaying in the chateau when we were there seemed to be out and about all the time (visiting the fabulous castles I think) but we were very lazy and spent our days at the pool and the court. The super market is between 10 and 15 mins. One useful point perhaps that we didn’t see mentioned on the website is that one of the double rooms (with en suite bathroom) is downstairs. That worked out really well for my 90 year old mother. Last thing to mention is Jeanne-Claire has a friend who will can cook and deliver a very nice meal for you. This worked out so much cheaper than going our for a meal and it lasted us for 2 nights!

Beautiful house for a brilliant holiday
The gite was as described and in a beautiful setting. It was a super place to relax, the children made the most of the trampoline and we all loved the swimming pool. The town of Romorantin is worth a visit and has everything you need. We didn't do as much as we had planned because of the heat but it is a lovely part of France

Wonderful stay
We had an absolutely lovely time staying in this wonderful Gite. It is positioned in stunning grounds next to a larger Chateau. There are beautiful woodlands, lakes and a River all on the door step.
The property was really clean and had everything you could want. We really enjoyed using the pizza oven and BBQ and watching the deer in the evenings.
Lots for the kids to do, nice clean swimming pool, trampoline, table tennis and a tennis court to name a few.
It’s a perfect location for a nice quiet getaway with the ability to go and explore the Loire valley and beyond if you so wish.
I would hesitate recommending and the hosts were incredibly welcoming and gracious.
Thanks you

Wonderful relaxing holidays
Beautiful house set within a nice castle, near a small river, with ponds around. We didn’t t leave the place for the week and didn’t t get bored..the kids enjoyed feeding the chicken, fishing in the river, trampolining and there was quite a few games In the house. The house remained fresher in warm weather, it was very comfortable for 9 people. The kitchen as all necessary, lots of plates, glasses, etc..wifi was good. We had a really relaxing time there.

Peaceful gite in beautiful area
We enjoyed a relaxing week here. The pool is large and perfect for cooling off on hot summer days, and the gite is very peaceful. We enjoyed eating outside, watching the deer running over the meadow across the small river. There is plenty to see in the area with many spectacular chateaux and interesting towns within less than an hour's drive.

So very pleasant
Each hour was more pleasant than the last. This is a place to savor and to enjoy being--in the quiet countryside with little but birdsong and breeze to disturb the stillness, by the side of the winding river with views stretching across the fields to into the shady depths of the forest, with paths to walk, ponds to fish, and a comfortable gite on the grounds of the large, rambling old estate.

Week-end de Pâques en famille dans ce havre de paix que propose Jehanne Claire. Le gîte spacieux, propre et très bien équipé nous a permis de passer du temps au coin du feu car la météo ne nous était pas très favorable ! Nous avons pu nous promener dans la forêt voisine mais aussi visiter le zoo de Beauval, le musée Matra ainsi que le château de Cheverny. Merci à la propriétaire accueillante et attentionnée.

enfin des vacances au calme
une famille de 3 couples d'adultes : nous avons tous apprécié le gite de Jehanne-Claire : elle nous a accueilli à bras ouverts, avec toute sa gentillesse et sa générosité. le gite est spacieux, bien équipé : la chambre de plein pied est idéale et le duo sauna/jacuzzi est fortement apprécié aussi. la cuisine est largement équipée, nous avons pu cuisiné des gâteaux, des grands plats, profité du four à pain pour la soirée pizzas, du BBQ pour les côtes de boeuf ... le parc et ses alentours, étangs, chemins sont un "petit bonheur" de calme, de sérénité, de beauté ... et ravissent les pêcheurs (avec l'accord de la propriétaire) le gite d'à côté ne nous a pas plus posé de gêne que ça.
de l'avis général, nous reviendrons très certainement

Natur und Erholung
Wir fanden unseren Urlaub sehr erholsam. Wer Natur und Ruhe mag ist hier genau richtig. Nur das schnattern der Wildgänse war zu hören. Gut gepflegter Pool. Sportmöglichkeiten wie Tennisplatz, Tischtennis etc. vorhanden. WLAN war für heutige Verhältnisse etwas zu langsam. Die Ausstattung in der Küche ist mehr als ausreichend. Cooler Kühlschrank mit Einswürfelbereiter. Einkaufsmöglichkeiten sind in der Umgebung vorhanden.Check in und Check out war alles kein Problem. Sehr netter Empfang. :-)

Prachtige en rustige locatie. Een aanrader!
We hebben een heerlijk verblijf gehad in deze Gite! De gastvrouw was erg aardig en sprak naast frans ook zeer goed engels. De locatie is werkelijk prachtig en rustig gelegen op een enorm landgoed grenzend aan het kasteel met voldoende privacy. We zaten er met ons gezin van 3 pubers en ook voor hen was het aangenaam vertoeven oa vanwege het ruime zwembad. Ook in de omgeving is veel moois te zien! Hier komen we graag nog eens terug!
