Holidays in Contres

Had enough of scrolling through other people's holiday snaps while chowing down your brekkie? Then book a getaway to Contres and spend your days among the stunning rural landscapes and forests of Centre - Loire Valley.

It sits 170 kilometres south of the capital of France, Paris.

Everyone knows that spending time outside can improve your well-being, both mental and physical. In light of that, why wouldn't you make your way 17 kilometres out of Contres to Caves Champignonnieres? Troglo Degusto, 17 kilometres away, is another recommended choice.

Chateau de Fougeres and Thesee, Ruins of a Gallo-Roman Settlement are not far from the middle of Oisly, 5 kilometres to the southwest. Want more? Feings, 5 kilometres to the northwest of Contres, boasts Chateau de Cheverny and Chateau de Troussay.

Heading to Chailles? This place is only 17 kilometres to the northwest. If you're staying here a little while, get a map and circle St. Louis Cathedral, Chateau de Blois and the Musee d'Histoire Naturelle. Also consider stopping by the Maison de la Magie and Cathédrale St-Louis.

Planning your own schedule is freeing, but sometimes it's a welcome relief to let somebody else make the decisions for you. Cycling tours, city walking tours and winery tours offer a convenient way to get to know the region.

If you find yourself caught in a downpour, head for cover in one of the region's craft workshops.

Refresh your mind at some fun outdoor attractions. The surrounding area offers a nice array of gardens.

If you're a history lover, you'll be glad to hear that there are a couple of castles, traditional villages, old towns, fortresses, historic bridges, historic mansions and historic palaces in the local area. They're great places to go back in time and explore the region's rich history.

Searching for some calm? You might just find what you're looking for at Contres' churches and cathedrals.

Eating is one of life's greatest pleasures, and since you're reading this, we guess you think travel is too. Combine your love for both by getting out and sampling the local food and beverage offerings at the restaurants, cafés and bars in town.

While you're in Contres, why not eat like a local? That means sampling a plate of andouillette au Vouvray (sausage in wine) or rillions (roast pork belly chunks), a couple of the region's specialties.

Lift a glass of a local favourite such as Chinon Cabernet Franc or Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc. Sommelier or not, there's nothing like a nice drop.

Before you pack up your belongings and say "À plus tard", why not spend the last bits of your holiday allowance and buy yourself some souvenirs of Contres?

When it's time to take to the skies, allow yourself enough time to get to Orly Airport (ORY). Sitting 160 kilometres to the northeast from the centre of Contres, this is the nearest terminal.
