Beautiful accomodations in the heart of Amboise. Street activity was a little noisy the weekend we were there, but we wanted to be centrally located. The home was very comfortable accomodations for us to spend time with our niece and her family.

The location was absolutely perfect with free parking nearby. The house has a good kitchen, new bathrooms and comfortable beds and a great patio/courtyard in the back. It was 93-96 degrees when we visited and the 3rd floor got quite warm without air conditioning. There was only one fan for each bedroom. But once the weather changed it was fine.

The house is beautifully decorated; however the no parking is a hassle.The bathroom tub is very difficult to use for older people, also the fact that there is no handlebar, nor curtain make the floor all wet and very slippery, a fall is waiting to happen.The one towel per person is too stingy, no smaller towels nor washcloths.

Lovely house in a great location

This house is very clean, super cute and in a perfect location. You are able to walk to all of the different activities within Amboise. We had plenty of room for our family of four and loved having the convenience of the washer and dryer. The property owner was extremely responsive and easy to work with. We would love to return some day and stay again!

Beautiful house, close to everything!

Our family loved staying in this excellent house, right on the main walking street in Amboise. The house is charming and comfortably appointed with everything our family needed. The private courtyard is perfect for morning coffee and evening dinner. We could easily walk to shopping, restaurants, the Chateaux, Da Vinci house (Clos Luce), and Loire river where there is a great walking/biking path and we rented bikes. We especially liked that our whole family could go to dinner and since the house was so close to everything the kids could leave early and walk home. Susan the Host is wonderful and very responsive. Highly recommend!

Heart of Amboise

We loved our stay here. The house was very clean, comfortable, and well furnished. Really appreciated the washer and dryer! The owner and managers were quick to respond to our questions. Very helpful. Rue Nationale is a pedestrian street during the day and is very quiet. It is walking distance to the Amboise castle, restaurants, bakeries, and little shops. DaVincis house is also walking distance (bit of a hike for us!) and was our favorite historical site. Loved Amboise!

Perfect location; beautiful property!

This historic home is simply beautiful and its remodel was exceptionally well executed. Loved the large rooms, clean hard surface floors, patio, and spacious dining room area! Susan was great and a very kind and communicative host. Thank you!! Our only (very minor) suggestions would be to (1) disable automatic hall lights, which awaken everyone and impede a good night’s sleep; (2) provide more bed pillows; (3) provide hand towels for bathrooms. We really look forward to our return to this lovely property! Thank you!

Beautiful town

The property is in a great location and well presented, but do have a couple of suggestions: - two fans for 4 bedrooms is not adequate, it was 37C during our stay and very uncomfortable. - no sheets and only a doona make it even worse without fans - noisy with garbage collection at 4am three times per week a shower curtain would assist in the main bathroom as there is no way to stop water spilling onto the floor and there is no floor drain so we had to continually mop up the floor to keep it dry and stop slip hazard

Hi Vince and thank you for your feedback. It is really disappointing that you have found fault with your stay in our home when most of our many guests have given a 5 star rating. We cannot change the weather. We provide fans for all bedrooms for the comfort of our guests during hot weather. When the weather is very hot Europeans close the shutters and curtains. This option would have been available to you. European style bedding is perhaps quite different to what you are familiar with. We supply a continental summer quilt and quilt cover for all bedrooms as well as a bottom sheet. All linens are high quality and are changed fresh for all guests. Your claim that there are no sheets is false. Our home is in the historic centre of Amboise and unfortunately sometimes guests hear noise from the services. You are the only one to have found fault with the garbage collection in 7 years hosting. With regards to the shower over the bath - again this is European style with a hand held shower head. We have no other reported complaints from our guests that we are missing a shower screen. Of note there is a separate shower with a shower screen in the second bathroom which was available for your use.

Loire Tour based in Amboise

What a lovely home for a family or large group traveling together. We were a group of six. My husband and I plus two adult daughters and spouses. There was plenty of space and a full bath on each of the bedroom floors. Kitchen and dining room were well stocked and we enjoyed multiple meals in the house as well as several in local restaurants. We had trouble finding any activity or restaurant we desired in Amboise much more than ten minutes WALK away. Near-by parking was a breeze, once we figured it out, in complimentary parking. Our biggest complaint was we should have stayed longer. We find we have lots more on our list to see and I would base here again in a heartbeat..I hope for an extended stay when we return! Thank you Susan;)

Great Location!

The property was perfect for four couples, though be mindful that all bedrooms require climbing stairs, with 2 on second flour and 2 on the third. The house was nicely appointed and the kitchen was well equipped. We cooked several meals in the house and didn't want for any appliances or utensils. There was no drip coffee maker, but the french press was perfect for us. We loved that the house had a separate washer and dryer, both of which worked well. We enjoyed sitting in the back patio/courtyard area in the evenings ... especially when we could hear jazz coming from one of the area establishments. Bathrooms: It was nice to have a water closet on the ground floor. Be aware that there is one shower in the 3rd floor bathroom that all who want to shower will have to share. There is a handheld showerhead installed in the 2nd floor bathtub, but it is lower and there is no shower curtain. Both full bathrooms had double sinks, which was nice. There was one hair dryer between the two full bathrooms. Location: We felt Amboise was more quaint and slower paced than neighboring Tours and Blois. Access was easy and the arrangement worked well for four couples coming and going, sometimes together/ sometimes not. It's a full 20 minute walk to the train station, but the Max Earnst bus station is a very short walk and the bus ride to/from the train station is about 4 minutes. From there, it's a quick 8 minute train ride to Tours for easy access to the rest of the Loire River Valley. It's also an easy walk to: a market, pharmacies, bike rental, tourism center, shops and restaurants galore, and attractions (Chateau d'Amboise, Château du Clos Lucé). Susan was great about communicating in advance, quickly answering whatever questions we had. There were also local property managers that responded quickly to a question we had. Would definitely recommend!

This was a perfect spot in Amboise, right in the centre of town, close to everything!

This is a beautiful home, clean and had everything we needed. Communication with Susan and Greg was excellent. They gave us some recommendations for dining and we found these recommendations to be our favourite restaurants, off the main roads but close to the rental..superb! We would never have found these. A great stay in the heart of Amboise.

Maison très confortable, calme, en coeur de ville

Nous avons passé de belles Fêtes dans cette jolie maison bien agréable. Les 2 salles de bains sont parfaites, tout comme les chambres de belle dimension. Salon et salle à manger étaient bien adaptés pour 6 personnes, à noter les canapés vraiment confortables, ce qui est une rareté dans les locations de vacances. La cuisine dispose d'un équipement correct, mais un peu juste. Nous avons regretté l'absence de théière et une deuxième poêle n'aurait pas été un luxe extravagant... Quelques plats de service simples seraient aussi appréciés. Merci à Gilles qui s'est déplacé rapidement quand nous l'avons sollicité !

Great Location. Clean, spacious accomodations.

The property is a lovely antique townhome on a bustling street in the old section of Amboise. It is a short walk to the Chateau Amboise and just a bit longer to Chateau Clos Lucé. There are mouth watering boulangeries and other small shops just steps from the door. It's located about ten minute's walk from the Amboise market. There is a well-equipped kitchen, clean rooms and bathrooms, a large dining table and a lovely, small backyard. Parking is a bit tricky on the street, but there is ample parking about 150 meters away in a public spot where the meters are off from 18:30 until 0900. We would certainly book again on any return to beautiful Amboise. Thanks!
