About this property

17th Century Charm Between Loire Castles and Futuroscope, with Pool and Lush Garden

Charming 17th century house located between the Loire Valley Castles (Amboise, Chinon, Loches, Azay le Rideau, Chenonceau, Chambord, etc.) and Futuroscope. 400 m from the Pierre Percée, the highest menhir in Touraine. Near the D910 road (Route Historique Nationale 10). All-inclusive gîte (except tourist tax). Ground floor: living room/lounge/kitchen 40 m² (sofa, satellite TV, Krups Dolce Gusto pod coffee machine), 1st bedroom (140 cm bed), shower room, toilet. 2nd bedroom on the mezzanine (2 90x190 cm beds), complete baby kit. WIFI connection. Electric heating (included). 2 ha enclosed landscaped garden. Private enclosed courtyard. If 5th person: €10 per night. Bike loan (free). Indoor swimming pool (low tunnel shelter) unheated and shared with the guest room. Included in the prices: sheets/beds made + full linen + final cleaning + heating + electricity. POOL OPENING: 30/04 to 01/10 (depending on the weather). Non-smoking cottage. 1 guest room on the property. Imagine yourself sitting on the terrace of your cottage, tasting a delicious Ste-Maure-de-Touraine, a famous goat's cheese crossed by a straw of rye, accompanied by a delicious Touraine wine (to be consumed in moderation!). Close to the Châteaux of the Loire (Villandry, Azay-le-rideau, Loches, Chinon...), your stay will be the pretext to satisfy your cultural and gastronomic desires. 25 minutes from Châtellerault and its Automobile Museum, 40 minutes from Futuroscope and less than 10 minutes from the access to the A10 Ste-Maure-de-Touraine motorway, Beauval Zoo is only 45 minutes away! The welcome you will receive from Sophie and Jean-Philippe is a small sample that is quite representative of the immense pleasure you will have staying in this corner of the Loire Valley. You will be immersed in the heart of an extraordinary garden designed and created by Jean-Philippe. Beautiful moments await you in this gîte where the equipment and the atmosphere know how to combine quantity and quality.

Fabulous gîte

Had a wonderful week at Gîte Draché. The accommodation is exactly as described with everything you need. The gardens and pool area are beautiful and the work that Sophie and Jean-Phillipe have put in to creating a perfect haven is incredible. They were both so welcoming. Supermarkets and plenty of local attractions all within a short drive. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend to family and friends.
