We enjoyed the serenity of the location, the nature and beauty of the house and gardens. The home was secure with a gate. The animals were a bonus. We loved the old house and the antique furniture and the level of furnishings. The accommodation is very spacious and comfortable. What we found a bit odd was no curtains in the kitchen/living room and lounge areas but we have experienced the same thing in another cottage in France and therefore presume that this is the standard. In all, the advertising was exactly what was delivered and I wish to thank the host for the clarity in communication and response to my questions.

Perfect!

What a great holiday we had at this lovely gîte. It is spacious and extremely well equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The garden is lovely and has a plenty to keep everyone of all ages occupied, including table tennis, zip line, boules and the pool. A big attraction are the animals which you can help look after, a pony, goats and some chickens. A great find and we hope we can stay there again!

Lovely property

We stayed for 5 nights, and had a wonderful time. The property is very tastefully decorated, and the gardens and grounds very pretty and spacious. Our children loved the pool, and especially loved the pony, goats and chickens. We spent most of our time relaxing in the garden and house- dining outside in the evenings. We were lucky enough to be taken by the host for a local walk with the pony one evening, past sunflower fields. The hosts were very friendly and helpful when needed, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Ideal Home and Location

My family and I stayed in this beautiful house for two weeks, and we wish it could have been longer. It’s located in a lovely rural setting surrounded by fields of sunflowers and beautiful walking paths. Many of the well known chateaux were within an hour drive, and grocery stores and local bakeries are very nearby. The house is well equipped and has a lovely outside area for eating or resting in the shade. Adeline and Marc couldn’t have been more helpful in answering questions. They were always available, and Marc even spent time taking my youngest daughter for a ride on their pony. My children loved the animals, and we all thoroughly enjoyed our time in the gite and in this beautiful region of France. We would love to return in the future! Thank you, Adeline and Marc, for everything!

Country comfort!

Located in a country setting with lots of fresh air and a few farm animals to befriend. Adeline was great at responding to questions and to immediate needs while staying. The house is very large with three bedrooms. Great for families with small children as well. The pool was a nice feature, especially on the hot days we had. Beds are a bit small for tall adults. Definitely a place worth staying if one is visiting the area!

Wir haben 2 wunderschöne Wochen hier verbracht. Sowohl Check-in als auch Check-out waren super unkompliziert mit einem netten Kontakt. Wie haben uns sehr über die Flasche Wein zum Empfang gefreut. Das Haus ist sehr charmant eingerichtet. Der WLAN-Empfang hatte immer wieder mal Aussetzer, aber das ist in Deutschland auf dem Land ja auch nicht anders.Luzillé ist ein guter Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge. Ideen dazu finden sich in den Prospekten im Haus.Wir kommen gerne nochmal wieder.

Nous avions choisi ce gîte en raison de sa proximité de Beauval et de Chenonceau et nous n'avons pas été déçus.Le gîte est vraiment très bien mais les ventilateurs très modernes ont été appréciés, de même que la piscine hors-sol car nous avons séjourné en pleine canicule !La jeune fille de la maison nous a conduit vers les animaux (poney, chèvres) et nos petits-enfants ont pu contribuer à les nourrir.

Un gîte bien pensé, propre, bien équipé et au calme. Nous avons adoré notre séjour. Tout est prévu pour les familles, le jardin est très agréable et les animaux font me bonheur des enfants. Nous n'avons pas eu l'occasion de rencontrer notre hôte mais la communication a été très facile. Attention néanmoins pour les familles avec des tous petits, 2 des trois chambres sont situées sous les combles où la température grimpe facilement par temps chaud. (Il y a 2 ventilateurs qui nous ont été bien utiles la dernière nuit). Nous recommandons à 100 % cette belle adresse

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour. Beaucoup d'espace aussi bien à l'intérieur qu'à l'extérieur. Cet hébergement est très bien équipée et a beaucoup de charme. Le jardin est très grand et comporte tous les éléments que les enfants adorent : jeux, balançoire et cerise sur le gâteau, de très gentils animaux.Beaucoup d'activités à proximité, dont le Zoo de Beauval et le château de Chenonceau.Nous reviendrons sûrement.

une semaine inoubliable

⸻Nous avons passé une excellente semaine avec nos trois petits-enfants dans un gîte très agréable : spacieux, incroyablement propre et parfaitement agencé.Nous avons eu la chance de profiter d’un temps magnifique, ensoleillé et sans pluie — ce qui n’était pas gagné au départ ! Heureusement, car sans cela, les enfants n’auraient pas pu profiter pleinement de l’espace extérieur et des jeux mis à disposition : balançoire, tyrolienne, table de ping-pong… tout était réuni pour leur plus grand bonheur.Ils ont également adoré s’occuper des animaux du petit zoo sur place : leur donner à manger, brosser le poney, aller vérifier si les poules avaient pondu… des moments simples mais inoubliables.Petite ombre au tableau : le réfrigérateur est malheureusement tombé en panne… mais ce sont les aléas des appareils électroménagers, et cela n’a en rien gâché notre séjour. Nous avons simplement dû nous adapter et faire les courses au jour le jour, en rentrant de nos visites — car le supermarché est à une dizaine de minutes.Côté visites, nous avons découvert les merveilles de la région : Chenonceau, le Clos Lucé, et Chambord — tous différents et plus interressants les uns que les autres, difficile de choisir un favori.Et pour clôturer la semaine en beauté : le zoo de Beauval, un moment magique pour petits et grands !Un lieu que je recommande vivement !

Ravis de notre séjour en famille dans ce gîte. Très bonne communication avec les propriétaires (réactifs et très discrets), procédure d'arrivée très simple et en autonomie, maison de charme située au calme mais proche des châteaux & cités médiévales et du zoo de Beauval, spacieuse et confortable, grand terrain avec animaux à caresser et brosser, beaucoup de matériel/jeux fournis (intérieurs et extérieurs) pour les bébés & enfants (possibilité de demander avant ou en cours aux propriétaires comme une chaise haute, un lit parapluie). Petit bémol pour la piscine annoncée chauffée mais souci technique que les propriétaires ont essayé de régler, les enfants ont tout de même pu en profiter !
