Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
On a main road but set well back so nice and quiet for sleeping. Good sized bathroom and kitchen with quality appliances, fast wifi, comfortable bed, pleasant patio.The only item that we might have liked is a more ergonomic living room couch but that's a very minor issue. Denis is most welcoming host, we especially appreciated the coffee and other break items he provided.

Great place to see Amboise
With off road parking and a shortish walk this was ideally placed to prevent any parking issues. Dog friendly with enclosed front garden. Good facilities and nice dining area. Dennis was friendly and accommodating As a pass through it was ideal for our 3 night stay.

Vacances en Amboise
Excellent séjour au "Nid", petit cocon confortable et accueillant, ouvert sur un joli jardin ! Idéalement situé à 5 min du centre d'Amboise, au coeur des Châteaux de la Loire : les filles étaient ravies, et moi aussi ! Petit coup de coeur à 1 ou 2 min du gîte, sur les bords de Loire : les soirs de beau temps le coucher de soleil dessine sur le fleuve et dans le ciel une exceptionnelle palette de couleurs, une féérie !

Découverte des châteaux
Très bonne étape pour visiter les châteaux de la Loire. Accueil sympathique et propreté des lieux sont les premiers aspects de cette location. Très bien située un peu à l'écart de la ville. Coin terrasse au soleil en fin de journée. Rien à dire pour les équipements. Bref un gîte que nous recommandons.
