About this property

Superb and unique 18th century mansion with modern comfort in the Loire Valley

Our family home is a very unique property. The wine estate dates back to the 16th century, the mansion is from the 18th century and was extended in 1850. While preserving this old heritage, we equipped the property with all modern confort. The property is surrounded by nature, the vineyards and the woods, whilst very close to the major cities of Tours and Amboise. Part of the building is carved into the rock. It counts with old cellars, troglodyte rooms, grotto, a little wood giving direct access to the vineyards, a heated pool amidst lush gardens, a french garden, and a patio. There are 3 living rooms, 2 kitchens, a barbecue, 2 dining rooms (in the rock) and 10 bedrooms with 7 bathrooms. It accommodates 20 people in great style and comfort. The parking has 5 slots. The old gate is monitored with a remote control. The temperature is controlled in every room, with floor heating for the rooms in the rock and A/C in the main house. The house is equipped with flatscreen TV, cable channels, home cinema, wireless Internet. Furnitures are a mix of contemporary art, vintage items and old collectors.

Magnifique séjour
Le domaine est merveilleux ! Tout est prévu pour être bien comme à la maison. Le jardin, la piscine, le potager, la maison, les chambres, le patio bref on a été plus que charmé par cet endroit paisible … il y a des très bonnes ondes ! Notre bébé était heureux ! Nous serions bien restés encore et encore !!! Les hôtes et propriétaires Elisa et Mathieu nous ont bien accueillis, les échanges étaient fluides et de confiance c’est appréciable merci à vous ! La cerise sur le gâteau est Maoya qui nous a préparé un brunch tous les matins (prestation supplémentaire), c’est une femme exceptionnelle ! Merci encore pour tout ! Le centre ville est à 2 min en voiture, et je dirai 15 min à pied. Tours est à 10/15 min en voiture! Il y a tout ce qu’il faut pour être heureux ! On y retournera c’est certain ! Merci pour tout !
