Perfect home base for all the sights we wanted to see in Amboise, and such an easy, pleasant walk into town to restaurants, the chateau, and Clos de Luce. The lodge had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and the grocery store across the street is so convenient.
A great place to cycle from. Convenient for walk into Amboise and shop opposite. The owner was lovely and we appreciated the welcome gift. Lovely viewpf the river.
Very good location for the town and markets. House was very comfortable and grateful for the fans due to the heat. Lots to do in the area and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for the welcome gifts!
This is an ideal location, walking distance to Chateau D'Amboise, the Friday/Sunday markets and the other main sights of Amboise. Across the road from a good sized supermarket and a gym. The kitchen was well appointed, the bedrooms were spacious with drawers and hanging space available in each. The view of the Loire was wonderful and the garden had the added bonus of fresh peaches! (September)It was great to have a washing machine, dryer and airer. Lots of cleaning products were available to use. Our only negative was the WiFi was a bit sketchy, especially when upstairs. I ended up turning off my access to it and using mobile data as it did say no internet available quite a few times.
A perfectly place house with a large garden and off-road parking. Very near to the center of Amboise allowing us to walk to the town very easily. Three large bedrooms (two King doubles and a twin) with three bathrooms. Cosy kichen/diner and lounge. Free wifi was a great help as well as UK TV channels. Very helpful host too.
Well appointed 3 bed, 3 bathroom property within a 10 to 15 minute walk of the centre of Amboise. Nice lounge and very well equipped kitchen overlooking a beautiful garden area with gazebo, table/chairs, loungers and plentiful off street parking. The Loire river is at the back and is a lovely view from the back bedroom. It was very hot when we went so I guess the only thing missing is aircon which it would certainly have benefitted from (been told not too many french properties have it though). The owner, Jean-Loic, is an extremely friendly & helpful guy who gave us ideas of what to do in the area. Great Boulangerie 5 minutes away which sold amazing pastries and a Netto across the road for groceries & cheapish petrol. Could do far worse than this lovely property in an ideal location.
Weâre so pleased we stayed at Jean LoĂŻcâs lovely country house. Amazing views of the Loire from the upstairs bedroom, 5 minutes walk to a wonderful boulangerie, 10 minutes to the centre along the river. Spacious, clean, well equipped and a very friendly and personable host too! Easy and enjoyable drives to some of the best chateaux in the area. Leonardo DVs house was a particular delight. Highly recommended.
Well appointed and a great location just out of town centre. On the main road but slightly set back so quiet. A great place to explore Amboise and the Loire from, we cycled everywhere. Off road private parking and secure bicycle storage.
As mentioned the peaches in the garden a delicious bonus. Intend to return to Loire to continue exploration and this property is top of list for next booking.
We were initially worried about parking outside, but Jean reassured us it would be ok. The house was immaculate, lovely big comfy beds and everything you could need in the kitchen (not that we did much cooking) Garden was a real haven. Walk into the town was longer than we expected, but we are in our 70âs so took our time and got used to it. Shop over the road proved very useful and I think the boulangerie at the end of the road sells the best croissants in the world!! Highly recommend if you are going to stay in Amboise.
Eine tolle Wohnung mit einem sehr freundlichen Gastgeber
Die Wohnung ist gut eingerichtet und einem Top Zustand (besonders die Badezimmer). Die Lage am Fluss ist toll, man hört allerdings die StraĂe vor der HaustĂŒr (deshalb nur 4 Sterne).
Jean-Loic ist ein sehr freundlicher und aufmerksamer Gastgeber. Vielen Dank fĂŒr eine entspannte Woche an der Loire.
First class household kit with everything you would want in near mint condition. House has a lovely garden for evening drinks/ supper and just a 5 min stroll into centre of town. Great bakery near by and a small grocery shop almost opposite. Jean-Loic popped by to ensure all OK
The property is on the banks of the Loire with easy access on foot to the town of Amboise. There is parking on site and a small supermarket is only across the road. The property was very well equipped with everything you might need cooking- wise though we ate out most nights or had a barbecue. The slightly wild garden full of nesting birds was a delight. We caught the train to Tours and drove to Blois, Villandry, Azay Le Rideau all within easy distance. Good birdwatching along the Loire - teens and a cuckoo were particular delights.
This property was ideal for cycling along the Loire and visiting other towns and the Aquarium. It was also very conveniently located for walking into the town. Jean-LoĂŻc recommended several places to visit and restaurants to eat at. He left macarons from Bigou (the best Salon du ThĂš) and champagne. The garden was a pleasure to sit in when too hot to go out and the view from the upstairs bedroom over the Loire was amazing. We would definitely recommend this property.
