Lovely, unique holiday property with room for family and extended family. Walking distance to village, although boulangerie shut in August. Very large garden with lovely view over valley & town. Some paths overgrown, but still lots to explore. Quiet local roads & old railway line ideal for running / walking / cycling. Pool was highlight for keeping family entertained. Fenced in and well kept.Communication with Michel was excellent.Overall would recommend home and location for relaxing family holiday.

After a long early October journey from Oxford it was lovely to be warmly welcomed by the owner (and their housekeeper) who showed us round what was obviously a home and not just somewhere to let out to strangers. The pool was perfect with a view down towards the village. A short downhill walk to the patisserie/bakery started the day. Visits to the Mechanical Musical Instruments Museum (Dillon) was a highlight as were the Jardin du Sasnieres and a visit to the Lelais Vineyard to taste the local Jasnieres white wine. And the restored frescoes in nearby St Julien de Poncé sur Loir were another not to be missed wonder and the night sky was full of stars. So pleased we stayed at 'Moksha' because it was a beautiful house from which to explore the area. Thank you for your welcome.

We loved staying at this amazing house in the beautiful Loire Valley. We visited castles and old monasteries, Les Mans and swam in the pool every day. It was easy communication with the host and if we needed help, the help came fast. The house is so unique and personal and beautifully decorated with art everywhere. Every room has its own charm! The only thing we want to recommend is that the kitchen and the kitchen bowls, pots, pans and glasses would need some cleaning. Other then that it was a wonderful stay!

Great family holiday

Lovely character property at the edge of a quiet village. The house is well equipped, spacious and has lots of outdoor space for eating, playing or lounging. The newly installed pool was very popular with my family and is well maintained by the owners local manager.

The house is very atmospheric, full of interesting furniture, and paintings by the owner. It was at a comfortable temperature even in the middle of a heatwave. Beyond the pleasant area near the house, with a big table and chairs sheltered by a magnificent wisteria, are extensive grounds to wander in. Seating is provided at many points. (The items for playing in the pool were in a poor state - but perhaps they had been left by other guests)The nearby village is sadly diminished, with the only bar and restaurant closed. The boulangerie was temporarily closed for the baker’s August holiday, but a replacement service was helpfully offered at the nearby Mairie, a five-minute walk from the house.

We enjoyed a lovely week here. Michel was helpful before making the booking and provided helpful information on arrival too. The rooms in the house were comfortable and all the bedrooms were a good size. Excellent provisions in the kitchen. The pool was a great hit with everyone in our family and with the weather so warm we used it a lot! A nice daily walk into Courdemanche for fresh bread and pastries from the boulangerie was a real bonus. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Fantastic house

A beautiful house, full of charm and character, and fantastic grounds to explore. Wonderful views over the village and an idyllic, secluded and private setting; even nicer than it looks in the photos! Lovely swimming pool and seating area around it. Very easy walk into the village to visit the boulangerie. Michel was extremely helpful with all questions, and we had a lovely welcome from the property manager. We had two lovely weeks with our young children here and would highly recommend this house for families.

Stay in Courdemanche

Excellent house and pool with plenty of space and importantly, enough bedrooms, bathrooms and showers for eight people, a family group including 2 under 2years of age. Set in deep countryside with beautiful views over the village. Relatively close enough for visits to châteaux of the Loire. Big hypermarket (E. Leclerc) 20 minutes away. Some inclement weather during our stay but enough hot days for swimming and lazing around the pool area. Great holiday. Chris W

Une superbe semaine passée à Courdemanche! Nous étions 2 familles et nous avons pleinement profité de la piscine, de la maison et de la région: canoë sur le Loir, visite au clos Lucé, padel, accrobranche et promenades. La maison est immense, bien équipée, très chaleureuse.

Magnifique propriété

Parfaitement située sur les hauteurs de Courdemanche la propriété de Michel est de toute beauté. Vaste et très confortable nous avons passé en famille deux semaines de rêve. La demeure est entourée d’un immense parc et la vue sur le village est charmante. Absolument à privilégier si vous souhaitez un endroit calme et ressourçant.

Paradis sarthois

Merci au propriétaire d'avoir proposé à la location sa maison de famille dans laquelle nous avons passé une semaine formidable. Outre la piscine chauffée et les 4 hectares qui entourent la propriété, la vue sur le petit village de Courdemanche nous a enchantés à chaque instant
