Our cottages are situated in the heart of chateau country in the Loire Valley, valley of the French Kings.  We are well placed for visiting these wonderful historic castles;  favourites include Chenonceau (just a short drive or cycle ride), Amboise, Blois, Chambord, Chaumont and Cheverny, and west of Tours, Villandry, Ussé, Azay-le-Rideau.. 

We are also in the centre of the Touraine wine growing region;  our local wines are the Gamay grape, Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc.  We are close to Vouvray renowned for its dry and sweet wines made with the Chenin grape.  We are also within an hour’s drive of Chinon, Saumur and Bourgeuil renowned for their Cabernet Franc.  Chinon is particularly interesting with its mediaeval streets and it was the site of the very first French Parliament.Visit Sancerre and Pouilly only a two hour drive by motorway and across country from the mediaeval city of Bourges, itself famous for its Cathedral.

We would like to thank you for the lovely week in your cottage in Bourré. It was very comfortable and well equipped and so well positioned to visit such lovely places. Saw beautiful chateaus and lovely countryside. Drunk too much vin and ate too much from the Boulangerie and Patisserie. A recipe for a wonderful holiday. Ann and Jeff

Just got back yesterday from our week in Bourre and wanted to say a big thank you for a great week. The cottage was perfect, exactly what we wanted and so nicely renovated and kitted out. Alex

Had a wonderful holiday, cottage was fantastic and Bourre and surrounding area very nice. I hope we will come back to the Loire Valley in the future. Cath.

We had a great holiday with perfect weather, Thanks - Robert and Elspeth

Thanks for the loan of your cottage - an ideal location for the exploration of that area of the Loire and Cher. We thoroughly enjoyed our break. Terry.

We had a delightful holiday in Bourré and Paris, the weather was very kind to us. It would be very easy to get used to the pace of life. The cottage was beautifully kitted out, it ws a real home from home. The peace and quiet was wonderful after the hustle and bustle of Paris. We will certainly tell any of our friends who are thinking of a holiday in the Loire about your lovely cottages. Many thanks. Anne and Clifford.

We had a great week at La Grange at Christmas.  Thank you for such a comfortable and well equipped cottage.  I hope we may be able to take it again some time- perhaps in the warmth of the spring or summer! Caroline

I thoroughly enjoyed the cottage..in such a beautiful situation with so many interesting places to visit and it was very convenient to reach by Eurostar / TGV with a car hire from St. Pierre. It was the comfort and situation of the cottage that was a key factor in the enjoyment of the holiday. Richard

Ann, Just a note to 'thank you' so very much for letting us use Maison la Grange. What a 'little gem' it is, we had a brilliant time, and hope one day to return for a longer holiday. Kindest regards. Adrian, Lynette and Ben

Hi Ann,

We absolutely loved your cottage and totally over ate at the local pastry shop and enjoyed goodies for breakfast every morning. We biked, walked and drove to everything we could possibly get to and our favourite dinner was at the Hotel De L'Ecole - absolutely divine. We also loved cooking local produce in your marvellous kitchen.   We would love to come back and perhaps stay at one of your cottages at Vrigny - we are saving already!   Many thanks for a wonderful stay in your cottage.    Lesney and Alan
