Beautiful cottage, warm welcome and wonderful hosts

We stayed at Les Coindries for 1 week in August. Robert and Claire were very welcoming and the cottage was homely and comfy. It was a lovely base to explore the Loire Valley and a lovely place to relax by the pool. We had a great stay here. It was also great to meet Colin the Collie!!

Très agréable court sejour

Nous avons passé 3 nuits dans le cottage Petite Condrie pendant les fortes chaleurs et avons eu la bonne surprise de trouver une maison fraîche et de pouvoir profiter de la grande piscine. Merci à Claire et Robert pour leur accueil

Paradiesisches Landgut, wundervolle Gastgeber

Wir waren diesen Sommer für drei Wochen im Cottage Le Petit Coindries bei Robert und Claire und haben ein kleines Paradies vorgefunden. Hier kann man wirklich Abstand von Arbeitsstress und Alltagslärm gewinnen und weit abseits vom Massentourismus wunderbar entspannen. Im schattigen grünen Innenhof findet sich für jeden eine ruhige Sitzecke, aber man kann auch gemeinsam unter der großen Gartenlaube essen. In diesem heißen Sommer war der große, wunderschöne und sehr saubere Poolbereich der erste Platz der Wahl. Die Poolbar hatte immer kalte Getränke und gute Musik auf Lager. Unser Struppi hat sich sofort mit dem Haushund Colin angefreundet und für uns war es schön, unkompliziert Ferien mit Hund verbringen zu können. Unsere beiden Kinder bzw. Jugendlichen hatten ebenfalls alles zum Glücklichsein: Pool, W-LAN und die beiden frischen Katzenbabies Gin und Tonic :) Robert und Claire sind die herzlichsten Gastgeber, die man sich wünschen kann und wir haben uns bei ihnen sehr zuhause gefühlt. Sie gaben uns viele Hinweise auf stattfindende Feste und Rat und Tat für Unternehmungen in der Umgebung und nicht nur einmal haben wir mit ihnen gemeinsam feiern können. Die schöne ländliche Umgebung lädt zum Spazieren und Fahrradfahren ein und die kleinen Städtchen haben alle den typisch französischen, mittelalterlichen Charme. Auch für kulturell Interessierte gibt es endlos viele Schlösser, Burgen und Klöster zu entdecken. Wir sind sicher, dass wir nächstes Jahr wieder hierher kommen wollen! Vielen Dank an Robert und Claire!

Thank you for your review. We enjoyed having you all to stay and are pleased you found Les Coindries a tranquil and peaceful setting for your holiday. The swimming pool area is a nice place to relax and chill out on hot sunny days. We agree there is a lot to see and do, including walking, cycling and visiting historic towns and chateau, as well as restaurants offering good food and wine. We hope to see you all again soon.

Entschleinigung

Hier in der Loire-Region kann man entschleinigten Urlaub machen. Wer Bespaßung braucht ist hier falsch! Dafür bietet dieser Landstrich viele kleine Dörfer mit persönlichem Charakter. Er wird durch die Landwirtschaft von Sonnenblumen, Melonen und Mais bestimmt. Kirchen und vor allem die Vielzahl an Schlössern sind lohnenden Ziele. Unsere Vermieter haben einen Kleinod geschaffen, in dem man herrlich entspannt urlauben kann. Durch ihre freundliche und offenen Art haben wir uns willkommen und sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Unterkunft ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und bietet neben Pool, Grill und eigener Terassse sowie Fernseher sehr viel. Gekocht wird mit Gas. Die Ausstatung könnte um einen großen Topf bereichert werden. Warum nicht 5 Sterne? Die großzügige Wohnung (Bad, Küche mit Eßtisch, Wohnzimmer, 2 Schlafzimmer) hätte etwas sauberer sein können. Der stark benutzte Besen könnte durch einen Staubsauger ausgestauscht werden. Auch die Ausstattung war nach der Abreise sauberer als vorher! Kleinigkeiten wurden sofort erledigt. In Summe waren wird zufrieden fanden den Preis allerdings etwas zu hoch. Haustiere sind herzlich willkommen

A lovely place to stay in the French countryside

Stayed in La Pressoir gite. The gite has a lovely deco and I especially loved the mezzanine bedroom. The gite opens out on to a lovely little courtyard where we enjoyed alfresco dining under the stars! Highly recommended place to stay to explore the Loire and Vienne areas of France Thank you Rob and Claire for being great hosts
Response from VrboOwner on 24 Mar, 2020
Thank you for your review. Its nice to have the opportunity to enjoying eating alfresco on a lovely warm evening. With no light pollution here in the countryside you are able to see the abundance of stars the night sky, especially when you can see the 'milky way'.

Les Coindries is a great place to unwind and relax, in an unhurried part of the beautiful countryside in the Loire valley. The aim is to create a home from home.

A very warm welcome on arrival ,which started our short stay very well .Our Gite was very clean and comfortable ,and had everything we needed .We enjoyed going into the local town and trying the restaurants.Claire and Robert the owners also lent us their bikes to go out and about ,which we really enjoyed .But the best bit for me and the added bonus with this property ,the swimming pool although the weather was cooling I still enjoyed a swim. We definetly will go back .

Beautiful place to stay to get away from it all.

We stayed here for ten nights enjoying piece and tranquillity that this beautiful location offers. Welcoming and friendly hosts,charming and comfortable gites with plenty of outdoor space to relax with a good book and a glass of wine. Ideal for cycling and walking in beautiful French countryside. The charming French village of Richelieu is only a ten minute drive away offering small bars and cafés and weekly market.

Le Petit Coindres

The new owners arrived practically the day we arrived. Claire and Robert were determined to make us as comfortable as possible and went to a lot of trouble to make our stay very enjoyable, even getting us a new bed. As we left all the gites were being redecorated for the following season. Each gite is separate with a large shared courtyard, though you have your own outside space to use for barbequing or eating breakfast , so the site is ideal for a group of friends or family as well as a couple on their own. The best thing about this place is the pool which is fabulous with lots of sun and space to lounge around in. There is a small pool room with a fridge for cool drinks which the owners kindly stocked with water. The pool was kept very clean and is a really good size. The complex of gites is ideally placed for visiting the wonderful chateaux of The Loire. The cycling is fantastic as the roads are so quiet and not too hilly. There are lots of lovely little villages to cycle to and get a beer or lunch in the local café. Market day in nearby Richelieu is a must to get locally grown produce. The larger towns of Saumur and Chinon are worth a visit and the wine tasting is great . I highly recommend this place for a holidayand will return ourselves soon. Diana and Alastair Grieve
