Wonderful stay at Cinq-Mars-la-Pile

The gite was a fantastic place to stay, clean, spacious & very well maintained. There's plenty of room & the pool was great. Michel & Anne were fabulous hosts. This is an ideal place to explore the Loire & particularly all the chateaux within an easy drive. Would certainly return here again.

Perfect stay in the Loire countryside

Beautiful house which is a converted stable. The two bedrooms were perfect for myself, husband & 2 children (ages 4&6). The kitchen area was massive and very well appointed - we loved picking up food supplies from local market/shops, spending afternoon by pool, then having a BBQ early evening. Michel & Ann looked after us very well!

Smethurst

We had a wonderful week in the Loire. The gite was very clean and well equipped. There was lots of information available on local tourist attractions. The swimming pool was very welcome in the heat. Anne and Michel were excellent hosts and very friendly. A perfect relaxing holiday for either couples or families. Ideally situated for exploring the towns and chateau of the Loire.

A taste of paradise In the Loir Valley

This property is one of the most delightful we have stayed at. Micheal and Anne, are the most thoughtful and charming couple you would wish to meet. The property is secluded and ideal for a quiet holiday The facilities provided by the owners are very comprehensive and attention has been given to every detail. The swimming pool and Patio areas are the icing on the cake. The area is central to some wonderful restaurants and markets Would I stay there again? most definitely Thank you Micheal and Anne.

Great countryside cottage

The house exceeded our expectations. A lovely secluded location accessible to major roads, near the Loire river with ample supermarkets and necessities nearby. Our hosts, Michel and Anne are a lovely couple. They were very helpful with recommendations about local places to dine and chateaux to visit that were less crowded than the ones on everybody’s list to see. Their English was much better than our French! Due to unforeseen circumstances, we arrived at the house just before midnight and Michele was so understanding, and it was not an issue at all. The house is clean, had a washer (No dryer, as is typical but a drying rack and ample sunshine to dry your clothes) and a very comfortable kitchen with a full sized refrigerator. A bottle of sparkling wine awaited us upon our arrival!

Idealer Ausgangspunkt um die größten Schlösser der Loire zu besuchen

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit im Ferienhaus von Anne und Michel Lebrun. Die Kommunikation im Vorfeld war super und der Empfang am Anreisetag sehr herzlich. Zu unserem Glück können die Gastgeber sehr gut Englisch. Das Ferienhaus ist liebevoll und gut eingerichtet und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt. Die Terrasse liegt so wunderbar, dass man Ende Mai von morgens bis abends Sonne hat. Der große, gepflegte und beheizte Pool ist natürlich nochmal etwas ganz besonderes. Das Ferienhaus liegt abseits, aber nur wenige Autominuten von Langeais ( mit guten Einkaufsmöglichkeiten) entfernt. Es ist dort absolut ruhig, aber man ist innerhalb max. 1 - 1 1/4 Std. Autofahrt an den 10 wichtigsten Chateaus. Und wer genug Schlösser gesehen hat, kann die tolle Stadt Tours genießen oder an der Cher herrlich radfahren. Einziger Kritikpunkt ist das völlig schallungedämmte 1. Stockwerk. Die Dielen knarren wirklich bei jeden Schritt und die Wände sind dünn wie Papier. Wir waren zu Zweit und da hat es uns nicht weiter gestört, aber mit mehreren Personen möchte ich es nicht erleben.Wir würden dieses Ferienhaus auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen.
