Lovely property in the heart of the Loire. Only problem was the heat-unusually hot for June meant difficulty in sleeping as no air conditioning (but fans were provided). Pascale was an excellent hostess.
Loved everything about this beautiful house. Location - although too far to walk into town, there was tranquility and reprieve from busy chateau towns. (Bolt service available in and out of town),Facilities- All home comforts in a tastefully decorated style. Great to have washing facilities after lengthy travel.Host - Pascale very friendly and obliging.Note: There is a steep winding staircase to upstairs bedrooms but after the first day, we learnt to conquer them!Thoroughly recommend La Vernelle
A perfect getaway in Loire Valley.The location is perfectly positioned for visiting castles, markets, wineries & caves.The host is very attentive to your needs.The kitchen was well supplied with equip. & lounge very comfortable.The bedrooms a dream along with the bathrooms.In the morning the native bird chorus is a treat highlighting you are in the country.
We stayed a month to live the dream of life in France. This house is perfectly located to explore the riches of the Loire valley while at the same time giving you the serene experience of French country life. Just outside Amboise, a cultural Loire jewel, you need look no further for the most perfect spacious and private accommodation with the most perfect setting, artistic decor and the most perfect hosts of Pascale & Pascal.
This property is finished to a high spec and the owner is on hand for any issues (if they arise). The gite is in a fantastic location to visit some of the best Chateaux in the area and is very close to the bustling town of Amboise which has multiple restaurants and cafes, as well as a lovely market. With our 8 year old in tow, we also kayaked on the Loire (15mins drive away), and went to Gadawi Nord (Go Ape but better) which is 30 mins away near Tours. All in all, we would happily return to this property and this area.
During our three week trip to France, we stayed in five different VRBO houses. While each was special in its own way, my husband and I agreed this was our favorite. The house is stunningly renovated, beautifully decorated, and filled with quirky and special touches. In person, it looks even better than the pictures. It is also centrally located to the chateaux of the Loire Valley, and a quick drive to the historical sights, shops, and restaurants of Amboise. In addition, the host is lovely, kind and accommodating. The grounds of her beautiful chateau are also open for guests to explore. We could not have hoped for a better finale to our trip!
We have just spent a fantastic fortnight at La Vernelle from 13th July to 27th July 2019. On arrival we were thrilled by the beautiful setting and high quality fixtures and fittings of this spacious cottage, giving it a truly luxurious feel.
We enjoyed morning coffee on the bistro table over looking the woodlands with horses grazing below, while listening to the birds delightful morning songs.
In the evenings we had barbeques and family meals on the large private terrace.
If you enjoy peace and tranquility after a busy day then this is the place to come.
The cottage is perfectly situated within the Loire Valley around half an hour drive to some of the most beautiful Chateaux in the region.
During our time we experienced a heatwave where temperatures peaked to 43° Pascale, the owner, was quick to offer us advice and extra fans to keep us cool.
Some local shops are within a 20 minute walk and supermarkets are a short drive away.
The only thing we didn't like was leaving to come home. Would love to return in the future.
Vietimme viikon erittÀin siistissÀ ja tilavassa talossa La Vernelle. YmpÀristö on hyvin rauhallinen. Laitoimme joka pÀivÀ ruokaa, mihin hyvin varustettu keittiö tarjosi mainiot puitteet. Pyykinpesukone ja kuivausrumpu olivat myös ahkerassa kÀytössÀ.
La Vernelle on sisustettu tyylikkÀÀsti. Alakerran tiloista löytyy mm. hauskoja punaisia yksityiskohtia ja lukuisat taulut saavat sinut hymyilemÀÀn.
Vuokrasimme sÀhköpyörÀt Amboisesta ja ajelimme pitkin upeita pyörÀreittejÀ Loiren laaksossa. La Vernelle on oiva tukikohta myös pyörÀilyÀ ajatellen.
Pascale-rouva on todella vieraanvarainen ja auttavainen emÀntÀ. Parempaa ei voi toivoa.
Das groĂzĂŒgige Haus war mit allen Annehmlichkeiten ausgestattet. Die KĂŒche mit Sitzbereich lud zum Kochen und gemĂŒtlichen Beisammensein ein.
Schlafzimmer im ObergeschoĂ waren ebenso sehr groĂzĂŒgig dimensioniert. Eine super freundliche Gastgeberin rundeten die tollen 2 Wochen ab. Auch die logistische Lage zum Besuch der vielen Schlösser war von Vorteil. WIR kommen wieder.
What a lovely house. Host Pascale is very welcoming and friendly. The house is beautifully clean and very well styled throughout with a mixture of old meets new. Would recommend this property. The photos donât do it any justice. My only comment is that due to the rural ( but beautiful ) location, it is a 10 min drive ( not walkable ) into town.
Would stay here again.
The house is absolutely beautiful and perfectly located for touring around the Loire Valley. Pascale is a wonderful hostess and welcomed us warmly. The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated. The bathrooms were large and en-suite with great water pressure and plenty of hot water. Having a dedicated laundry room was a plus. Bedrooms had very comfortable beds and plenty of storage. The kitchen was fun to cook in and we were able to take advantage of the great produce and meats to be found in the region. We will definitely be back, the area has so much to offer. Very highly recommended.
Sehr schönes, ruhig gelegenes Haus mit eigener Zufahrt (elektisches Tor), das zum GrundstĂŒck eines kleinen Schlösschens der EigentĂŒmer-Familie gehört. Im Garten hört man nur Vogelgezwitscher und freut sich abends ĂŒber den Ausblick auf die tiefer gelegene Wiese, auf der dann zwei Pferde, ein Esel und zwei freundliche Ziegen grasen. Die Vermieterin Pascale ist super lieb und hilfsbereit, hat gute Restaurant- und Ausflugstipps. Die BĂ€ckerei im Ort ist toll: leckerste Baguettes und Tartelettes. Das Haus ist fantastisch gelegen fĂŒr AusflĂŒge zu den Schlössern und in die Umgebung. Es ist sehr sauber und auch praktisch eingerichtet, mit separatem Raum fĂŒr Waschmaschine und Trockner. Auch bleibt es im Erdgeschoss sehr kĂŒhl bei Hitze. DrauĂen im Garten kann man herrlich im Baum-Schatten essen und in Lounge Chairs bis spĂ€t abends lesen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt und unsere Urlaubszeit genossen. UneingeschrĂ€nkte Weiterempfehlung! Vielen Dank fĂŒr Ihre Gastfreundschaft, Pascale.
Wonderful property, beautiful setting, very friendly hosts.
Great cycling along the Loire and Cher.
A perfect place to enjoy the countryside and attractions of the region.
Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit dem Ferienhaus. Die Besitzer sind sehr nett und das Haus ist ein absoluter Traum! Es liegt wunderbar und ist sehr ruhig!
Unser Hund konnte auf dem GelÀnde frei herumlaufen und alles begutachten!
Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder kommen:)
Pascale was an amazing host who greeted us upon arrival and departure. The home was charming and we loved it! It is centrally located and east to get to many beautiful chateaus and activities in the Loire Valley. Highly recommended! Merci Pascale!
Wir haben unsere Ferienwoche im Haus La Vernelle sehr genossen! Das Haus, der Kontakt mit den EigentĂŒmern, die Lage, die Sauberkeit, alles sehr, sehr gut. Amboise ist fĂŒr Ferien an der Loire ein guter Standort, da zentral gelegen, sodass AusflĂŒge in jede Richtung gut möglich sind. Die Velowege sind toll ausgeschrieben und fĂŒhren durch schöne Landschaften. Hier Ferien zu machen können wir nur empfehlen!
Kleinod in toller Lage mit sehr charmanter Gastgeberin
Das Objekt ĂŒbertraf unsere Erwartungen. Sehr geschmackvoll renoviert und eingerichtet, tolle KĂŒche auch zum Selbstkochen, gemĂŒtliche und groĂe Schlafzimmer, extrem ruhig. Alles hat super funktioniert, Kommunikation mit der charmanten Gastgeberin ĂŒber whatsapp einwandfrei. WLAN im ErdgeschoĂ gut fĂŒr den ein oder anderen dienstlichen Termin fĂŒr Viko. Mappe mit Tips fĂŒr Restaurantbesuch, Markt in Amboise und vieles mehr. Amboise in 10 Min mit dem Auto zu erreichen, Tours in 30 Min. Die bekanntesten Schlösser in max. 60 min. Ein sehr erholsamer Urlaub an der Loire!
