A truly lovely home in Amboise
Francoise has a lovely home, with lots of space and a fantastic patio. It is beautifully decorated and is well stocked with cups, glasses (for any beverage), cutlery (oyster knives!), pots, pans and just about anything you need. We really enjoyed our stay. The home is very close to Amboise, but it is recommended that you have a rental car as the walk to town would be difficult. However, the drive into town is very easy. Parking is available. We were delighted with this home and would highly recommend it!

Well appointed cottage
The property was spacious with plenty of room to relax both indoors and out. The kitchen was well equipped and the laundry was an extra bonus. We arrived by car so being able to park outside easily was an extra bonus.

Loire Valley Gem
Great location just outside of the vibrant town of Amboise. Our family of 3 absolutely adored this place and just what we needed to explore the beautiful Loire Valley wine region; mostly touring the very accessible and well known AOC of Vouvray minutes drive away. The town of Amboise is also only minutes away. Our hostess Francoise couldn’t have been more accommodating. Thanks Francoise for making our stay in the Loire Valley so very special and memorable. Much appreciated - this is a special place and hopefully we will be back to enjoy sometime in the near future.

Relaxing in Amboise
After almost a week in Pairs, we went down the Loire Valley to explore the chateaux. This gite in Amboise was perfect for our get away. Very conveniently located to the village where there is excellent dining, patisserie/boulangerie, brasseries, and the Chateau Amboise. We also stumbled onto a market area that is available every Friday and Sunday. It was a very relaxing and enjoyable stay, and the gite was perfect for our visit. Francoise was very helpful and got us settled into the gite comfortably.

Cosy cottage on the hill
Françoise was a fabulous host, who exemplified the best of French hospitality. She was very gracious with her time explaining everything (despite my very broken French). The cottage is well appointed with the necessities for making a comfortable base camp when visiting the grand château of La Loire. It was a fabulous time, and our host could not have been more amazing.

Charming cottage with access to many Chateaus and Da Vinci history
We loved the quiet location of this little cottage. It is quirky and has split levels and an interesting floor plan. The host is charming and very helpful. The cottage is very convenient and surprisingly close to many sights of interest. The decor is a mixture of French country charm and history. We enjoyed the washing machine and the kitchen supplies. (Would not recommend for anyone with mobility challenges as split levels could be limiting.) Amboise is very interesting especially if you are an ardent fan of Leonardo Da Vinci and his work, ultimately his final resting place.

Lovely home
The home was very clean. The owner takes very good care of the property. It was too far to walk into town, but we had a car. The area around this property was charming. She does have air-conditioning, but they are small units. One upstairs one downstairs the unit does have one full bathroom downstairs and a sink and shower in one area of the upstairs and then a separate toilet. We all enjoyed our stay. François was very helpful and getting us reservations for dinner. She only speaks French, but we used our Google translator, and it all worked out

The house and yard were exactly as described, beautifully decorated and SUPER clean! We were 5 adults and had plenty of space, and ate outside on the terrasse every day. Host very friendly with good suggestions of restaurants and things to do. Highly recommend! Short drive to Amboise, about a 50 minute walk.

This was a perfect home for 4 people. The rooms are spacious, the property is close to beautiful Amboise and there are multiple bathrooms. Gorgeous outdoor spaces. The owner helped us make a reservation at a wonderful cafe in Amboise. Cannot say enough good things. Would definitely stay again if we come back to this region.

Perfect home away from home
A truly wonderful place to stay in the Loire Valley. The location is perfect - close to Amboise and other chateaux but out in the country so quiet and peaceful. The house was a home - from the spacious living areas and kitchen to the outside patio and gardens. We stayed during a heat wave. The AC units came in handy on the really hot evenings, but the old stone walls and the cross breeze in the early morning helped keep it cool. Another bonus- both showers were also larger than the usual claustrophobic cubicles in so much of Europe.

Charming comfortable property with welcoming host
This property was perfect for us. We were three adults, parents and a daughter, but property can host more people. The house was charming, pretty, super clean, with lovely, tasteful decor. It feels very homey, Everything we needed was available including washing machine. The property is in a quiet location in Amboise, an excellent central location for the Loire Valley and chateaux. The owner was extremely kind and very flexible for our somewhat late arrival, very easy to communicate with, Amboise is a great city to stay in. We found an excellent boulangerie for great bread and pastries and a great restaurant called Chez Bruno.

Lovely house in Amboise
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Amboise. The house is very tastefully decorated, air conditioned and had everything we needed. The owner, Francoise, was very helpful. We appreciated having a washer to do laundry and we enjoyed sitting out in the lovely garden. It's located a few minutes drive from Amboise which is a beautiful town, perfectly located as a base for visiting the chateaux and wineries in the Loire valley.

Lovely, perfectly decorated charming house. Every corner had some precious detail. Sitting in the garden with the birds singing and the scent of roses...perfect. Comfortable. Kitchen had everything you could need. It was fun to tour the market and bring fresh veggies and fruit home for dinner. Charming French hostess. I highly recommend staying here - and for as llong as you can...there is lots to do and see in the area.

Perfect House in a Perfect Location and Can't Wait to Return!
Notre famille de 5 a passé un séjour merveilleux à votre domicile. Votre maison a été joliment décorée et bien équipée pour tout ce dont nous aurions pu avoir besoin. Le plancher était parfait pour nous, et le beau jardin et le patio étaient un bonus supplémentaire. L'emplacement n'aurait pas pu être plus parfait! La rue calme et étanche des maisons le long de la campagne, à quelques minutes de la ville, était si parfaite! Merci beaucoup pour votre hospitalité et votre gentillesse! Nous espérons néanmoins que cela vous aidera dans vos recherches. -La famille Collins Our family of 5 had a wonderful stay at your home.

Fabulous immaculately presented house with a welcoming host.
We have just spent 2 weeks in this amazing house which is lovingly cared for and has everything you could possibly need. The host Françoise was so welcoming and left us a lovely bottle off local fizz in the fridge. It is ideally placed to explore the many chateaux along the Loire and is close to the cahrming town of Amboise. The only thing that could have been better was the weather ! Thank you for a wonderful holiday we will definitely be back again sometime in the future.

Quality accommodation
We can highly recommend this property. Well equipped, comfortable and spacious the cottage is on the outskirts of Amboise, a busy traditional town with lots to see and do. A short walk to the river Loire and short driving distance from wonderful chateaus and vineyards. Wine tasting is relaxed and friendly with no pressure salesman in sight. We loved the area and loved the cottage. Just perfect, many thanks to our host Françoise who provided everything for our comfort and responded quickly and pleasantly to our initial and subsequent contacts by email and phone.
