On Tour in Tours for RWC 2023

This is a lovely older property which is really well placed in Tours. We walked everywhere and loved Tours. Great choice of restaurants in both the old and new town. Spent seven weeks in total in the house while attending RWC 2023 so probably had a few minor issues that short-term stay people would not have. Our host Marie was excellent and sorted any issue as quickly as she could. She made us feel very welcome and showed great patience. A couple of negatives - parking is tough, tight and open to all so had to park a few streets away on occasion. Smaller cars better for this. Internet very good upstairs not so downstairs and needed a booster which Marie sorted. Back to the positives - No.5 bus at end of street brings you to main TGV station and is then only an hour to Paris - we also travelled to Bordeaux and Nantes for matches and all ran smoothly. Tours a smashing place to base yourself for a French exploring holiday. Airport a 20 minute drive with easy access by car and tram (10 mins walk). Our family able to visit which was great. Became our French home from home and we were well looked after by Marie.

Touring Tours

Great place to stay. Easy to walk everywhere we wanted. Only 20 minutes to the SNCF for Château visits (recommend a 3-day train pass for up to 5 travellers).
