The cottage was comfortable, location was perfect and outdoor space amazing. Both Oxanna and Brigette were very helpful with the aid of Google translate. We unfortunately couldn't use the main pool as there was a problem with the filtration system and we weren't aware of it until we arrived which was disappointing. Overall we had a lovely relaxing break.
The characterful renovated gardener’s cottage is sited in the beautiful countryside of the Loire (although it is very dry at the moment) and has all the amenities for a very enjoyable and peaceful holiday. The highlight of the property is the magnificent walled garden and orchard with its abundance of flowers, fruit and vegetables as well as a haven for bird life. We spent a lot of time simply soaking in the tranquility, lounging under the trees and cooling off in the swimming pool. Local amenities are only a short drive away or an hours walk if you feel so inclined. Ghislaine is an excellent host as is Alfons her constant canine companion. We would highly recommend this property especially if you are looking the unwind, enjoy nature and recharge your batteries.
Had a lovely time. Property was just like photos, peaceful and beautiful. Ghiselle was very helpful and welcoming. Enjoyed bike rides, walks, kayaking and visiting nearby towns.

Great accommodation in rural France with the benefit of all modern facilities but loses none of that
Great accommodation in rural France with the benefit of all modern facilities but loses none of that rustic charm.
The kitchen garden and the freedom to roam the estate were key features.
Close proximity to charming town of Segre provided good supermarkets, shops, restaurants and easy access to major routes to enable exploring the western side of the Loire valley,
The following comments relate to the website: -
Our first impressions on arrival were of a lovely location and clean well-equipped accommodation. As the owner was leaving having shown us round the cottage we asked how we accessed the pool and she directed us to the end of the walled garden. She then informed us that we could not use the pool after 3.00pm. We did not know that we had shared use of the pool with the owner. This restriction is not stated on the English part of the website, although it does mention in that we had restricted access to the Walled Garden. The owner did recognise this omission and did text us on Monday to say that we could use the pool after 3.00pm.
I feel this should be made clearer at the outset as I would not have booked if I had known we did not have unrestricted use of the pool and it was shared with the Owner as it is an essential part of our holiday experience. I would also add that when we went up to the pool on the Sunday early afternoon there were children’s toys all over the side of the pool and towels on the four loungers. We did not feel we could move anything so had a swim and went back to the cottage so unable to lay by the pool. The toys were cleared up for the Monday, but towels continued to be left on the loungers until finally we cleared them on the Wednesday to be able to use at least two loungers.
The Owner mentioned at the outset that problems existed with Wifi and that she was in touch with the provider. We had no connection throughout the week and as our daughter runs her own business this was a serious omission, and again had we known that Wifi was an issue we would not have booked this accommodation. We gave this feedback to the Owner when we left, and she informed us that there would not be Wifi available until the end of August. She said had we needed to access the Wifi we should have asked, and we could have used hers but as she had not said that on our arrival we would not have known that was an option.
Charmante petite maison face à un très joli potager. L'espace est calme et arboré. Idéal pour se reposer. L'équipement de la maison est complet et Ghislaine est accueillante et réactive.
Semaine très sympa dans cette maison pleine de charme adossée à un grand jardin aux multiples plantes, fruits, rosiers etc... Parfait pour profiter du calme et des sites alentours (chateaux, campagne...)
Mooie locatie, vriendelijk onthaal en ook tijdens het verblijf was de gastvrouw makkelijk te bereiken. Alles is aanwezig om het verblijf goed te laten verlopen. Ideaal met onze hond om te wandelen en vrij rond te lopen in de voortuin.
Un endroit plein de charme, au calme, en pleine nature.
Séjour agréable.
Le gite mérite toute l'attention des propriétaires pour conserver son standing...
We stayed two weeks in the cottage in august. We enjoyed a warm and friendly welcome. The cottage is cosy, the kitchen is well-equipped and the beds are very comfortable. The view from the master bedroom is truly splendid. The backdoor give you access to a very large walled vegetable garden that is absolutely unique. We made great meals with fresh salad and tomatoes. The pool of the owners is accessible and there is a private pool in the front lawn which our kids loved. Within an hour’s drive there are more than 80 castles. The nearby city’s of Angers and Nantes are also worth a visit. This is a place of peace and quiet and a lovely holiday destination for all ages.
Gîte très calme et très agréable avec un beau et grand jardin dans une magnifique propriété.
Heureusement qu'il y avait une cheminée avec du bois car ce week-end de septembre fut particulièrement frais
Huisje wat netjes en helemaal in orde. Vriendelijke gastvrouw die goed bereikbaar was. Ook genoeg adviezen en tips voor eten, activiteiten en anderszins.
Op t platteland, geen last van buren of omgeving. Heerlijk tot rust gekomen en genoten van het weer, zwemmen en de regio.
Um es direkt zu sagen - ein ganz traumhafter, spezieller Ort.
Wir -13, 17, 20, 46, 50 - haben uns dort sehr sehr wohlgefühlt. Das Haus ist top eingerichtete und ausgestattet. Man kommt an und die Entspannung kann starten - auch Dank unserer netten Vermieterin und ihrer Art, ihre Gäste willkommen zu heißen. Ein großer Korb mit Gemüse aus diesem fantastischen Garten stand direkt in der Küche. Und damit zu dem Anwesen: dieser einmalige Garten, der sich direkt vor der Tür befindet - unglaublich toll. Er ist innerhalb einer alten Einfriedung top angelegt, Blumen, Obst, Gemüse, Kräuter, Schmetterlinge, Bienen - und das alles mannigfaltig. Wunderschön. Drumherum das Anwesen, Wald, alte Gemäuer, Scheunen, Wiesen, diese kleine Kapelle - alles frei zugänglich (bis auf das Wohnhaus, ein schönes kleines Schloss, der Besitzerin natürlich). Nicht zu vergessen sind natürlich auch die beiden Pools, die wir sehr genossen haben.
Dieser Ort ist gut für die Seele - vielen Dank! Wir werden wiederkommen.
Nous avons passé un agréable séjour dans cette maison bien équipée et idéalement placée. Il y a beaucoup de sites à visiter à proximité, à commencer par les alentours du chateau. Le potager est extraordinaire ! Nous avons été très bien accueillis.
Keeping on giving life to a big family house in the old France countryside and specially gardening vegetable, fruits, flowers and roses
What makes this property unique
Being inside a vegetable and flowers garden of one hectare is something very rare and marvallous. This is a real countryside experience in a 30 hectares park
