Amboise, France Vacation Villa Quality Wines and Foods

"The Paquerie" is an exclusive and renovated 19 century vineyard style country house 4 km from Amboise situated in a 2 acre wooded park with a panoramic view of the Loire Valley. Therese and Brian (Retired Airline Pilot) propose to accommodate you in a luxuriously renovated cave-bedroom situated in their courtyard.

Breakfast is included and dinner can be arranged at an additional charge. French and Asian cuisine is also available and local wines can be provided. Breakfast and dinner are taken inside the house or on the terrace overlooking the Loire Valley. The house presents you with a subtle mixture of antique European and Asian furniture, Asian artifacts and modern paintings and photos - all reflecting the extensive travels of Brian and Therese.

For those who love calm and elegance this will be a delightful, peaceful experience that emphasizes nature and quality of life. Your private terrace enables you to relax in complete privacy. Your welcome is assured all year round, as this cave-bedroom remains cool in the heat of summer and snug with central heating in winter.

Amboise is famous for its royal chateau and the 'Clos Luce", the home of Leonardo de Vinci. We are a short drive from all the renowned chateaux of the Loire Valley and you can visit local markets, charming villages or participate in wine tasting.

PILOTS. The Loire Valley is an ideal stopover for visiting foreign pilots. Land at Amboise/Dierre (LFEF) and Brian, an experienced pilot, will ensure that all your tourist and aviation needs are satisfied.

The Loire Valley is well known for its numerous chateaux, quality wines and delicious food and also for its caves; that is, its "troglodyte" history. Julius Cesar used natural caves in this area to stock food for his soldiers during the invasion of Gaul. Later, excavation for the stone ("tuffeau") for the construction of chateaux resulted in numerous additional caves some of which are still used for habitation.

Because Therese has lived in many Asian countries she is qualified to provide instruction in French and Asian cooking. Private lessons can be arranged.

There are no cooking facilities in the room; However, tea/coffee making facilities are provided.

Access by car from the A10 auto route, by high-speed train (TGV) or by air (RyanAir) is without difficulty. Parking is in the courtyard in front of the cave. English is spoken.
