Troglodyte Home

There are accommodations where one stays. There are accommodations that stay in one’s heart. This troglodyte home and its owner will live in our hearts. 1) Owner: She always responded to our pre-vacation emails and answered all questions promptly. She greeted us on time to give us the keys to the home. 2) Troglodyte home: What a find! How intriguing to stay in an ancient dwelling that is wired and plumbed with modern facilities. The house is furnished with a chic, easy comfort in mind. The owner’s creativity brings this property to life. The location is excellent for easy walking to the Amboise Chateau and the Museum of Clos Luce, Leonardo da Vinci’s residence.

Très beau gîte, très bien localisé (très proche à pied du château, du centre ville, du clos Lucé), avec beaucoup de charme. Absence de séparation entre l'espace nuit et les espaces de vie. Difficile de faire autrement dans ce logement troglodyte, mais bon à savoir quand on vient en groupe. L'hôtesse était très gentille avec une communication fluide.
