Charming cottage *** surrounded by nature, in the heart of the Loire chateau

Anne and Michel LEBRUN are pleased to welcome you to this cottage nestled in the Touraine countryside, in the heart of the château of the Loire Valley, which was created in one of the outbuildings of their 19th-century farmhouse.
Entirely renovated with respect for tradition, it is an ideal starting point to take full advantage of the cultural and tourist attractions of Touraine, the cradle of French Royalty for centuries.

This Independent building built with tuffeau stones for 120 sqm can accommodate five people.
It is composed of:
• A beautiful fully equipped kitchen
• A large living room with a wood stove
• A 2-person bedroom with a queen-size bed (160 cm) with private shower room
• A 3-person bedroom with three beds (90 cm) with private shower room
• A large south-facing patio with a garden furniture
• Shared with the owner :
- A garden for 5 000 sqm
- A Petanque field
- A heated swimming pool of 8 x 4 m, in service from June to September

Located 2 km from the Loire, close to many of the most famous château of the Loire Valley: Chenonceau, Amboise, Villandry, Azay-le-Rideau, Chinon and many others. The region offers many cultural and sporting activities: Zoological parks, museums, cycling, hiking, canoeing, etc.
The city of Tours, 15 km away, invites you to stroll through its historic centre and dine in one of its many restaurants.

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!

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.

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!

Our stay at Le Clos de la Reserve was lovely. The Gite was stunning from top to bottom, extremely clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The setting is perfect, surrounded by fields and woodland, ideal if looking to get away and enjoy peace and quiet. The heated pool was ideal to enjoy the sunshine and of a decent size for swimming and playing with the kids. Anne and Michel were perfect hosts, meeting us on arrival and talking us through the gite and providing all the information we needed. Thank you for a wonderful stay, and we hope to return one day

Wonderful stay
The house was stunning. Very rustic feel to it which was perfect for a French stay. Pool was great and much needed as we had the most amazing weather. Everything you would need for a family stay. If I could make one suggestion it would be to put out some outside comfortable seating on the patio to enjoy the stunning views. The dining chairs and table were great but after an hour or so got a lille uncomfortable to really relax in.

Beautiful and relaxing setting.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the beautifully renovated cottage. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything we needed. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. We came at Christmas time and there was even a Christmas tree set up. The weather did not allow for outdoor eating, but I am certain it would be lovely in warmer times. This is the perfect place to get away and relax.

Een top vakantiehuis
De ontvangst was vriendelijk en aangenaam met een rondgang in de ruime woning. Alles was dik in orde, de keuken was goed voorzien van allerhande materiaal en de bedden zijn opgemaakt. Het zwembad was zalig, zelfs bij minder en nat weer was het heerlijk zwemmen. Het huis ligt op een centrale plaats voor het bezoeken van de vele kastelen in de omgeving. Hartelijk dank!

perfekte Urlaubswoche inmitten vieler Schlösser und einem super eingerichteten Ferienhaus
Das cottage war einzigartig, die Einrichtugn hatte alles und mehr was man in einem Ferienhaus benötigt. Anne und Michel Lebrun sind sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Die Ideen von Anne, welche Schlösser in direkter Umgebung man unbedingt anschauen sollte, waren super. Die Kommunikation war auf englisch und französisch problemlos möglich! Der beheizte Pool läd jeden Tag zum planschen und schwimmen ein und wird täglich gereinigt. Ein rundum perfeker Urlaub an der Loire!
