Our stay in Fondettes was relaxing and most enjoyable. The house was very well located. It was a 5 hour drive from Calais. One member of our party travelled via train (St Pierre des Corps TGV station meant Gare Montparnasse in Paris was only 1 hour away) and another flew home from Val de Loire airport (only 15-20 mins away) to Stansted. Within a 2-3 min drive was a choice of boulangeries and an E Leclerc supermarket. The local Sunday and Wednesday market was small and functional with a large Sunday market at Langeais.The house itself was cool and calm, set in well maintained grounds and with a remote controlled gate. If you like old houses and their charm and story then you would enjoy staying here. It was as described in the words and pictures on the site. We particularly enjoyed the choice of outside eating areas and the heated pool and bbq. There were books in English and French, chess, a lovely pool table and outdoor games including table tennis. Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of hot water. The kitchen was well equipped. We found that there was plenty to do in the local area: the chateau (and particularly the gardens) at Villandry were splendid; we went to a sound and light show at Azay Le Rideau and visited the model village of 40 Loire Chateaux. Tours was only 12 mins away - a calm, clean and friendly city with some good shopping and historic sites. We enjoyed eating out in the Old Quarter and also along Rue Colbert.
