A cosy nook.

This peaceful, clean, fully equipped, nicely rustic gite is ideally placed for exploring many of the attractions of the Loire around Saumur, not least the chateau at Saumur. In the tranquil village of Varrains, one is only minutes away from the extensive commercial facilities offered by Saumur. The hosts are friendly, welcoming, unobtrusive yet available for advice about their area. We enjoyed our stay immensely. Highly recommended. Our thanks to M and Mme Girard.

Très agreable séjour à Varrain

,Que de richesses architecturales et patrimoniales en Anjou. Sans oublier les vins de Loire ! Le petit village de Varrains est très bien situé pour se rendre dans de nombreux sites (châteaux, troglodytes, jolis villages). Et le gîte, typique de la région est très agréable, propre et bien aménagé.

klein, alt, romantisch - wie beschrieben

alles gut, nette Vermieter! Es gab nur einen Punkt, der uns als Deutsche stört (deshalb auch keine Kritik an Vermieter, sondern nur als Hinweis an andere Besucher): Es gibt keine Oberbetten, wie sie in vielen anderen Ländern und frz. Hotels üblich sind, sondern nur Wolldecken. Diese passten auch nicht wirklich in unsere mitgebrachte Bettwäsche. Wer sich also in gewohnter Weise in sein Feder- oder Synthetikbett kuscheln will, muss es sich mitbringen.
