Maison de
la Grandmère, our lovely charming restored
cottage situated
near the vineyards in the beautiful Loire Valley just 10 minutes drive
from the famous Chateau de Chenonceau, was the original farmhouse
occupied by the grandmother,
typical of several found in the village, and orginally there was only one room and a stable with
'grenier' or grain loft above, and a large 'Grange' or barn in the
corner where
wine was made..

This cottage is
suitable for 2 or 3 couples with or without children.
We have restored the interior to the highest quality whilst retaining the original features, and creating two 'en suite' double bedrooms and a twin room.. There is a shower room and two downstairs toilets one fitted with a razor point. Well, thanks to your fantastic cottages I'm a local hero. My family had a perfect time in Vrigny - the weather was perfect. Sunny enough to sight-see but punctuated by rolling storms which made playing cards by the fireplace ridiculously idyllic. The bikes were a great touch too. What great countryside, grapes were being harvested, the leaves were turning and leaving flames of bright yellow and red across the green hillsides. Sight!! I hope we find ourselves in Touraine again sometime - Jenni We all agreed this was the most relaxing October week holiday we could remember - the weather was kind too. What a lovely location Vrigny is and ideal for exploring the Cher/Indre/Loire area. Bikes were much appreciated as was all your information. Thank you - Anne |
The living room has a large open fireplace, a bed settee and two arm chairs, and a round table and chairs. The picture window opens onto the terrace. |

Recommendations Ann - we had a great time staying in Maison de la Grandmere in Vrigny. What a charming cottage - we could have moved right in and never left! We applaude your efforts at refurbishing the cottages - gorgeous, yet with an old french village charm. Thanks again - Tracey and Tom Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your delightful cottage. We found everything so convenient and the accommodation was really first class. We hope to return sometime in the future - Beryl.

Thanks so much for a comfortable and pleasant place to stay. We had a wonderful holiday and took in so many sights of the Loire. Of course sampled plenty of local wines. We hope to return one day as there is so much still to see. We will be in touch - Susanne and Marcus, Pat and John and Jack the dog I am writing to return the keys and to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at Vrigny. The cottages are lovely and in such a beautiful area. The boys really enjoyed the use of the bikes and it was lovely to cycle through the quiet vineyards. We very much hope to return to the area some time in the future and would certainly recommend it to our friends. JJB ....and more |

and More recommendations This holiday has been one of the best we have had and because we decided to go without a car; the bikes were a godsend and we managed to get about very well on them visiting all the places we wanted to go. For us to visit places further afield we got in touch with a local taxi man 'Taxi Phil' who was very reasonable. We would certainly recommend your cottages to any one who is thinking of coming to the Loire Valley and we would like to visit again ourselves. We found La Maison de la Grandmere truly charming and most sympathetically converted with everything anyone culd possibly need; we had a lovely and happy time there

Thank you so much for letting us rent your delightful house. It was so
much bigger than we expected and as grown up daughter decided to come at
the last minute there was plenty of room. ...We enjoyed futuroscope and
visited 3 chateaux in one day which was probably too many! Bikes were
used and river walked beside. ..... Thanks again and we hope we may be
able to go back in the future as there was still so much to see and it
was such a lovely holiday. - Tony Judith Eleanor and Alice Dear Ann and John. We all had a glorious week and enjoyed our stay in Maison de la Grandmere. I am sure we will be visiting again. Dear Ann. I was cleaning the car and found these (keys) in the glove compartment. Oh, to be back there instead of working so hard here! Regards Vibele Dear Ann. We had a wonderful holiday, there wasn't time to do it all! The Gite was very comfortable and ell equipped, we especially loved the use of the bicycles! We managed to sit outside for a couple of meals (October) but it was quite cold in the evenings so we had some lovely log fires. Many thanks for the use of your lovely gite - we all really loved it and the area. Dianne
