Om dette overnattingsstedet

Flott for par / familier / kjæledyr. Hage + parkering

Vårt romslige, familiens franske feriehus ligger i det historiske Place du Marche i Richelieu, en 17C liten inngjerdet by med alle fasiliteter i gangavstand, men veldig sentralt for å besøke Loire og Poitou-området. Chateaux, Fritidssjø og elver, golfbaner og Futuroscope, med kort kjøreavstand. Det er et flott område for sykling, og det er en ny "off road" sykkelbane på den gamle dampbanelinjen fra Chinon til Richelieu. Det er flere Voie Verte-spor i området. Huset vårt har et stort, tildekket trygt, lagringsområde for sykler. Sykler kan leies gjennom et lokalt byrå i byen.
Det er en stor eiendom som har mange originale funksjoner. Det kommer inn gjennom 12ft eikedører som åpner ut mot en bortgjemt skyggefull, åpen luftegård. Det er delt inn i to hus forbundet med en sentral korridor. Front House er ikke leid ut og holdes låst.
KJØRETILLATER Ingen ekstra kostnad.

Det renoverte 4 soverom, 3 bad, Garden House med alle rom med utsikt over den bortgjemte, sørvendte inngjerdede hagen, er huset som tilbys for ferieutleie for opptil 6. Huset er egnet for familier, barn og småbarnsvennlig, og eierens utstyr til baby / barn er tilgjengelig om nødvendig (gratis). Hagen er helt inngjerdet og et flott sted å slappe av med barna eller kjæledyrene (som er tillatt på forespørsel.) Det er en stor uteplass med plass til 8, solsenger, Webber BBQ og et innebygd plaskebasseng som er flott for avkjøling eller for barn å leke i. Det er ikke nødvendig å kjøre noe sted! Alle fasilitetene i en liten by ligger bare en kort spasertur fra blant annet supermarked Carrefour, Boulangerie, Slakter, kafeer og restauranter. Vi slapper jevnlig av på kafeene rundt torget med en kaffe, øl eller et glass vin som ser på barna leke lykkelig rundt (eller i!) fontenen og Les Halles.
Richelieu utendørsbasseng og lekeplass for barn er åpent i sommermånedene. Ingen problemer med parkering heller! Dette er gratis utenfor huset og rundt torget.
Ta med besteforeldrene også, de vil elske det.

Vårt hagehus er arrangert over tre etasjer koblet sammen med den originale tretrappen.
Inngangspartiet fører til stuen med peisovn, to sofaer, stor flatskjerm-TV + DVD, med en SAT-opptaksboks, CD-spiller og GRATIS WiFi.
Sentral oppvarming av olje er tilgjengelig hvis nødvendig, men dette belastes på mengden brukt drivstoff.
Vi har et bibliotek med bøker, filmer, CD-er, leketøy og spill for barn.

Stuen har doble dører (med sikkerhetsport om nødvendig) som vender ut mot terrassen og hagen.
Kjøkkenet / spisestuen har stort spisebord i eik med plass til 8, romslig oppbevaring, en 6ft kjøleskap / fryser og et eget kjøleskap som kan brukes til drikke. Den er fullt utstyrt med keramisk komfyr og vifteovn, Bosch oppvaskmaskin og mikrobølgeovn.
Alle våre kjøkkenutstyr, kokebøker og MP3 / iPod-spiller og lader er tilgjengelige for din bruk.

Det er også en høy stol og småbarnssete tilgjengelig på forespørsel.

Første etasje har også et stort bad og dusj, med vaskerom (vaskemaskin / tørketrommel / strykejern og brett) og et separat toalett.

Første etasje har to store tregulv soverom begge med nyoppussede tilstøtende bad - Det gule rommet (med dobbeltseng og en ekstra enkeltseng) har det store badet, dusjen og et separat toalett og det blå rommet (med dobbeltseng og full størrelse) barneseng) har et fullt flislagt dusjrom og toalett.

Andre etasje har ytterligere to store doble soverom. The Pink har to enkeltsenger, en barneseng og den grønne en dobbeltseng og en enkeltseng.

Husdyr er tillatt på forespørsel, men må oppbevares i områder i første etasje og er ikke tillatt på myke møbler.

Jeg har en engelsk venn som bor lokalt og er vår nøkkelholder. Hun ønsker gjester velkommen for oss og er tilgjengelig for å hjelpe deg med eventuelle problemer du måtte ha eller avtale krever (dvs. med lege eller veterinær). Vi har også en lokal renholder som gjerne hjelper til med rengjøring eller gjøremål under oppholdet. Dette kan forespørres på forhånd eller bestilles ved ankomst.

Selv om huset har 4 store soverom og kan sove 10, tilbys det bare for utleie for maksimalt 6. (Kjæledyr er velkomne på forespørsel).

OM OMRÅDET OG TINGER Å GJØRE.
Richelieu turistkontor, to dører fra huset vårt, kan gi oppdatert informasjon om de mange lokale aktiviteter og aktiviteter i området, dagsturer, foster og billetter.

South Loire-området tilbyr et temperert klima mellom april og oktober.
Richelieu er et flott sted for kunder som kan reise ut høysesongen, dra nytte av trafikkfrie veier og bo i en liten markedsby, hvor alle fasiliteter er innen gangavstand. Byen i seg selv er ikke "turistisk" selv i juli og august, men det er ofte køer for de viktigste Loire-attraksjonene som kan bli overfylt i disse månedene.
Richelieu er et unikt eksempel på 17thC fransk byplanlegging, og i dag er dette 'cite ideale' et listet sted. Den viktigste 'Grande Rue' er foret med 28 private rekkehus. Et av disse imponerende rekkehusene har en interaktiv visning og historie om kardinal Richelieu, byen hans og det tapte Chateau.
1600-tallskirken, rådhuset (med museum) og Les Halles ligger alle på Place du Marche, sammen med huset vårt.
Den enorme parken med restene av Cardinal Richelieu's Chateau ligger bare 2 minutters gange og et stort, fredelig område å sykle og gå når som helst på året. Det er sjelden travelt og også bra for barn og hunder å leke og løpe rundt i sikkerhet. Det har også utendørsbasseng (bare sommermånedene) lekeplass, tennisbaner og bouleområdet.
Etter en dag med sightseeing på alle kafeer, restauranter, butikker, er det gangavstand.
Ingen grunn til å kjøre for shopping eller et måltid ute!

Ligger ved krysset mellom Touraine, Anjou og Poitou Charentes. Richelieu er et flott sted å besøke de mange berømte middelalderbyene Chinon, Tours, Poitiers, Loches, Saumur, Fontevraud, Villandry og Azay la Rideau. Alle disse er innen en times kjøretur, som mange andre berømte Chareaux of Loire. Turgåing, sykling, kanopadling og golf er populære aktiviteter i dette området.
Futuroscope er en spennende temapark, bare 45 minutters kjøretur. Den passer for alle aldre.
1 eller 2 dagers pass er tilgjengelig.
Puy du Fou er en flott dagstur. En av de beste attraksjonene i Frankrike. Fabelaktig for en familieutflukt. (Billetter må bookes online, og de er ofte fullbooket måneder i forveien)
Dyrehagen i Douay og Monkey verden er populære dagsturer for familier.
I nærheten av Saumur er interessante troglydyte-attraksjoner, soppfarmer og ved Gratien og Meyer demonstrasjon og smaksprøver av Champagne (metode!) produksjon. Chinon-vingårder er basert langs Vienne og er vel verdt et besøk for både Chinon-røde og lokale roseviner

Det er mange lokale vingårder (husboken vår viser mange av de vi har prøvd.) Restauranter i små landsbyer med fantastiske menyer for all inclusive. Det er mange Michelin-stjerne også.
Det er flere lokale kafeer og restauranter i Richelieu med menyer med god verdi og Vins du Maison!
Huset vårt er godt utstyrt for matlaging innendørs eller grill.

Beautiful Richelieu

Lovely location in beautiful town square. Unfortunately stay was spoilt by the cleanliness of the kitchen. Some utensils appeared to have been put away unwashed. The dishwasher was particularly bad. One of the showers was pretty grim, fittings were rusty. All in all great little house but very tired.

Great location for a quirky residence that certainly gives a taste of rural France

Fantastic holiday in a very historic town. Lots going on both in Richelieu and surrounding areas with smaller Chateaux that are much easier to visit and get around for those of us getting on a bit. The house has a few quirks that relate to the history of the property though the owners have tried hard, within the preservation rules of an historic town, to make the impact on us "oldies" used to modern living in the UK as minimal as possible. The garden is a delight and a real suntrap. The local owners' representative was very helpful, as was her husband, and all in all we were well looked after. Great communication from the owner from the start. Being able to view UK TV also helped make the stay very pleasant indeed. Thanks to all concerned.

Peaceful and beautiful. A real gem of a property

The house is stunning, the private courtyard is a tranquil suntrap. The property is very well maintained, very clean and a lot of thought has been put into accommodating visitors needs. Lizzie the lady who looks after the property was friendly , efficient and very helpful. There are so many activities in the surrounding area , and the park just round the corner from the square is simply stunning. We took a picnic and spent the day. Maybe consider hiring a bike as the park is huge. We had an excellent meal at the cardinal restaurant for our wedding anniversary. We do not speak French well, but we found as long as people try to speak a little, people were friendly and went out of their way to be patient and help us to understand and get what we wanted. I would recommend this property and area of France to visit .

Wonderful Stay in Richelieu (Near Chinon)

We were very impressed with the great communication from Sheeleigh. We received very clear instructions on how to get to Richelieu, where to park and all details about the house etc. Sheeleigh also arranged for someone to meet us at the house on our arrival which was really appreciated. The house was exactly as described . Very old and charming house with everything that one could possibly need being provided. The spiral staircase required concentration when going up and down but overall not an issue at all. My husband who didn't speak french was especially grateful for the english TV. House was centrally located facing the village square and there was always something going on in the village square. We couldn't have been more delighted with our choice of location . Thank you Sheeleigh for a wonderful stay.

Historic and peaceful

This house has my favorite amenity -- totally dark at night and quiet and private. I really felt like a French aristocrat going into the private courtyard. The back patio and garden are beautiful and secluded. The kitchen is large and well equipped. It would be perfect for families with children or a group of friends. For a fussy old lady there were some drawbacks. The weather was unusually cold and rainy for the end of May and there was no heat. Or even a lap robe to snuggle under. There wasn't enough light to read in the salon although the couches were comfortable and there were lots of books. It had been described as having a bathroom for each bedroom but only one was available. The other advantages outweighed this for me and most people would not even care.

Great house in a super location

We had a lovely time in Richelieu. The town is a little quiet but very nice and perfectly located for discovering the Loire valley. The house is very spacious and the courtyard garden completely private. There is lots to do in the area within 20-30 minutes drive, and some lovely day trips . Overall would recommend strongly - but make sure you do plenty of research beforehand to get the most out of your time!

Lovely House right in the centre of Richelieu

Sheelagh is a great host making sure we were informed of things we needed. Andy met us despite a very late arrival due to eurotunnel issues. A beautiful old house right in the centre.splash pool is great for all (and the kids) and there is a municipal pool about 5 mins walk from the property. We loved it and will hopefully be back!

We’d highly recommend this property and really loved our stay. It’s in a fantastic location right in the centre of Richelieu. The accommodation itself is of a high standard and really flexible. The garden is lovely, fully enclosed, not over looked and a real oasis. The owner is so helpful both prior to visit and all the really useful info and recommendations when there. Highly recommend and thank you so much!

Best of Town and Country Combined

This is a lovely place to stay. It is in the market square of the beautiful historic town of Richelieu so you have restaurants and shops very nearby, including a decent size Carrefour just around the corner. Very handy. There is also a huge Intermarche a 5 minute drive away and a lovely boulangerie on the square to get fresh warm croissants for breakfast. The park is a 2 min walk away and has to be seen to be believed - it is huge! You can walk for miles in the beautifully kept avenues of tall trees which provide lovely breezy shade with the sound of the leaves gently rustling. At night, after the restaurants have closed, the town becomes very peaceful. We loved the lack of light pollution - you can actually see the Milky Way which is unusual for a town location. The house is rustic in character. It has everything we needed and is wonderfully quirky with its massive castle gate onto the square and a little private courtyard that also keeps the house cooler. Sheelagh (the owner) and Andy (the local agent) were super helpful and friendly during our stay. Thank you Sheelagh for recommending the motorway toll gadget for the car. We sailed through without having to locate change or credit cards. It really made the journeys much easier. I should also add that we had our Labrador puppy with us. He loved the park and was well behaved when we sat outside to eat and the local restaurants were fine with that. Thank you for a lovely holiday home.

Absolutely ideal location right in the square. Property is even nicer than the photos! We had a lovely time, we were made to feel very welcome and the house is just amazing. We loved our stay in this charming house, with the sun drenched courtyard filled with roses and the cool paddling pool that the kids loved. We highly recommend the gorgeous park, just like a renaissance painting brought to life.

Fabulous family holiday home

The house is right in the centre of Richelieu which is a very interesting town. The house is very spacious and well supplied with crockery etc. We enjoyed the central courtyard if the weather was really hot. In the evenings it was nice just to sit in the back garden. We were 6 adults and found the accommodation both comfortable but also very interesting as it is a very old historic building. Sheelagh the owner and Gail who looks after it in Richelieu where both very helpful and friendly. Richelieu itself has an excellent bakery across the square plus a number of restaurants and bars, although opening times seem sporadic and unpredictable. We particularly enjoyed walks in the park where the Chateau used to be. As the weather was very hot we made use of the local lido, a little old fashioned but well worth a visit. We visited a number of towns and château, although all are quite a trip. However our favourite was the closest Château Riveau about 15 mins away, very querky. We also loved Amboise and its Château. A nice day was had at Pagode de Chanteloupe and Chenonceaux. Overall an excellent holiday and we would thoroughly recommend it.

Superb location in a stunning historic town

We could not have asked for a better location in Richelieu, right on the main square with all the facilities on your door step. The house was perfect for six adults, big bedrooms, three bathrooms and a fabulous outside dining area. It's quaint typically French charm, from original stone work to the wooden beams all helped add to atmosphere created during our stay.

fabulous and an absolute hidden gem

I wouldn't normally write a review but we enjoyed our holiday so much, that I thought I would. Your house was perfect in every way – lots of space, really well kitted out, a lovely garden and the splash pool was loved by the children as well as us (I sat on a chair in it reading a book which is a luxury as I never have time to read!). It was also an added bonus that the garden was totally dog proof! Great to go out of the big door at the front from the quiet of the house to being in the middle of everything – we loved the park and the swimming pool along with the great choice of bars and restaurants. Amazing not to have to drive.

Character home conveniently situated

Our family used this property for a wedding and were not disappointed. It's full of quirky interesting character and ideally positioned on the town square with parking spots around. Although Richelieu is not big, all you need is available there: restaurants and coffee, tourist info shop, bank, small well stocked supermarket within walking distance and a much larger one with fuel 2 mins outside town. Great boulangerie too. Town ideally situated to drive further afield for chateaux etc and about 50 mins from Poitiers. The accommodation facilities are good, there's plenty of room and the wood burner took away the April evening chill. The back garden is indeed a sun trap and even at this time of year was hotting up when the sun was out. Sheelagh was most helpful throughout the process and has a good team in the area. Great place to visit and good home to stay in.

Well positioned and equipped comfotrtable home

Excellent position and despite being in the town so quiet. The first visit last year we were was so surprised when opened the gates to find a market outside. This year it was a really busy antiques market, didn't know it was there from inside at all. The house is very cosy in the winter and the addition of the central heating this year made it even better. The house is well equipped with almost everything you could need. The garden is a sun trap even in the autumn/winter. Plenty of good restaurants within walking distance all with good English. The owner Sheelagh is very obliging, we took friends with us for a few days this year for the first time, she assured that everything was ready for them also. There is always someone on hand to help not that we have needed it but you had that reassurance you would get help and fairly quickly if necessary. I would recommend this property to you.

Our French Home

First impressions are not always accurate. The simple wooden door on the street opens to reveal an absolutely charming home full of character. It has a fully equipped kitchen and all the conveniences necessary for comfortable holiday living. Everything was very clean and in good working order. The two outside terraces allow you to sit in shade or sun and the herb garden fruit-bearing pear tree were a welcome surprise. Our group of 7 could not have enjoyed our stay here more. This property is obviously a well-loved family home and not simply a holiday rental.

The weather was fantastic & so many places to vist with many famous chateau & vineyards. The people in the square were so friendly with bars & restaurants within easy walking distance. We had a great time & would certainly recommend this property

A lovely atmospheric, old French house

The house suited us perfectly, it has a very homely atmosphere, very spacious and well equipped, so we were really comfortable and relaxed there. The kitchen contains everything needed to be fully self-catering for a large family. The beds are comfortable and the washing machine was really useful. There are many board games, DVDs , English novels, English TV channels and a selection of toys for young children, baby gates etc. It’s in an excellent location, just open the old large double wooden doors and you’re right on the beautiful market square with cafes and restaurants, great markets on Monday and Friday and a brilliant brocante too when we stayed. Parking very close by is easy and free. It’s next door but one to the tourist office and there’s a Carefoure supermarket 2 minutes away around the corner. It was very hot when we were there in August 2016, there’s a front courtyard which is very cool and shady, the back garden is completely private and great for sunbathing, with lovely English roses and fruit trees. There are tables and chairs in the front courtyard and rear patio so we eat outside all the time. We enjoyed the park and loved visiting Chinnon, wine tasting (and buying) in surrounding villages and chateaus, swimming and canoeing on rivers etc. Sheelagh is extremely helpful and efficient, sending us lots of useful information before the stay and there are files in the house with more local info and all the info you need about appliances, recycling etc. Gail met us and was really friendly and helpful too and Sylvie the cleaner was charming. All in all we couldn’t recommend this little haven in a very special location highly enough- we loved it!

Lovely historic house overlooking market square

Bored my friends when home with stories from our great holiday in Richelieu. We stayed in a beautiful historic house overlooking the market square in the walled town of Richelieu, built by Cardinal Richelieu. The house is very clean and safe with large thick oak doors onto the square. Internally, it is large and spacious with a cool inner cobbled courtyard and external walled garden which is much warmer. Ideal as the weather changed from cool on the first day to very hot by the Saturday. We found the house exceptionally well equipped with little extras in the kitchen, eg cling wrap, foil, and a variety of spices, so frustrating normally to buy for just a week. We loved the cookery books as well as the novels, videos and board games, plus a book left by the owner with lots of ideas of places to go. We had little need to go anywhere as the famous Cape et Epee was taking place right outside our house, all free with artists, musicians, stalls, ancient games, horse show and fireworks in the park and locals all in period costume as musketeers, the King,and of course Cardinal Richelieu. On such a hot weekend we were able to return to the house for a cool quiet chill out. There always seems to be something going on in the town, from watching a traditional French wedding, to joining with the locals at their swimming pool, shopping in the market, or drinking at a local bar. We hardly used our car and loved the relaxed atmosphere of a real French town in a great house. Would definitely recommend and will go again.

This is our family house and offer it for rent for the weeks not booked by a large extended group of family and friends. The grandchildren love it -especially the cycling!
We are now retired, but love relaxing in Richelieu or in Hove, where life is bit more hectic. We are members of Brighton & Hove Soiree Rotary Club and spend our time actively fund raising for our international and local Charities. As Grandparents there is a lot of childminding but that is a pleasure we enjoy!
I am quick to respond to any enquiry and feel free to email or phone me if you have any questions.

Hvorfor verten valgte dette overnattingsstedet

Our house in Richelieu was originally purchased for a rural but not remote retreat. It is still the same today.We enjoy a holiday where the car is only essential for days out! It's a real bonus to be able to walk everywhere but with minimal traffic and safe places for children to play and cycle. The huge park is stunning at any time of year. The outdoor swimming pool is rarely crowded and our young grandchildren love mixing and chatting with local children-doing wonders for their language skills! Men/boys need swimming trunks. Shorts, are not permitted in French swimming pools.
Richelieu equally suits older guests as it has the advantage of easy, gentle walking, streets to explore and cafes to sit and enjoy the ambiance of French village life.

Hva gjør dette overnattingsstedet unikt?

Richelieu is also ideal for 2 centre holidays as it is just a couple of hours from Paris or Vendee coast. We regularly visit friends in Dordogne, Bordeaux and Hendaye(Spanish border) just a half days drive.
Although the house is large we welcome 2/4 as travel outside school holidays is a pleasure. Either retired couples, like us, or young families. It is an easy drive from Channel ports/tunnel and no traffic jams!
Recently, I have had amazing reviews about the cycling opportunities in our area. This is increasing due to the amount of 'off road' tracks becoming available around Richelieu making this so safe for families (and my young grandsons who just love to take off on their bikes without any adult supervision!). I am now 70 and have to say even I love a peaceful excursion on one of our bikes when I know I won't get accosted by a car driver!! There is a great bike hire in Richelieu and off route cycle track from Richelieu to Chinon. Unfortunately, I cannot allow our family bikes to be offered for use due to insurance reasons.
