The weather was sometimes terrible but that wasn't Sylvie's fault.

We had a wonderful time in the "garden house" in Sylvie's Paradise. Had a walk around Chinon every evening, sometimes using the "accenseur" when we were tired. The garden house is really wonderful, everything you could need was available. We were on a wine excursion buying wine for the coming year and were able to store it in Sylvie's underground cellar. The last evening after packing all the wine in the car we were able to leave the car inside the locked courtyard door. Wonderful time, surly hope to come back next year. Thanks again Sylvie.

There was nothing I didn’t like.

The setting is excellent - private but very near the centre of the town. Sylvie is an excellent host.

A really beautiful gite with all facilities including a really restful patio area. Excellent wifi and parking no problem. Chinon is a fantastic little town with friendly people. Best of all was Sylvia our host who was so helpful and sorted out every little question we had.We would love to return there in the future

Gite la Cométe is excellently located adjacent to Chinon Fortress overlooking the old town, which can be accessed directly by lift. It is tastefully decorated and very well appointed. We spent a marvellous week here and particularly enjoyed our host's wonderful garden, which offers several seating and dining areas - all cleverly screened to provide privacy. We thank Sylvie for her warm and generous welcome and intend returning to her beautiful gite. Deirdre and Brian

Lovely gîte for 2, all facilities needed with beautiful private patio and garden. Easy access to centre via free lift, Sylvie kind and helpful if needed otherwise respectful. Chinon is lovely to explore with wine tasting, great selection of restaurants, beautiful medieval buildings and Château. Lots to do in the area.

Very central. Quiet and with a lovely garden and a lovely host

Everything was fine.

The location was very near the chateau and it was easy to get into the centre of town. The gite is in the owner’s garden but there is plenty of privacy.

Sylvia was a wonderful host, helpful and unobtrusive, Chinon was beautiful with really good restaurants close by. We would return.

Didn't read the details about the fold down bed (my error) but it was comfortable. Didn't get the keybox code details but lucky that Sylvie was in. The only other comment is about the heating ( we came late September/ early October.and it was a bit chilly in the evening) . The thermostat is controlled by a code so you would need to speak to the owner in advance to change this. My advice is to visit in the summer!!

Beautiful garden and outside spaces. Easy parking outside the gate. Quirky decorating touches. Close to the Château, the excellent boulangerie and wine tasting. Handy for Chinon ( there's a lift down to the old town), Well stocked, small kitchen. Smelt lovely! Plenty to do for 3 days. We really liked it so the few comments 'didn't like' are only small things.

No complaints.

Stepping through the gate at Gîte la comète is stepping into a beautiful, quiet paradise. The gîte is just perfect with a small kitchen, very well equipped, the bedroom/ sitting area is comfortable and spacious. Bathroom is modern and well equipped. Right outside the door is a small courtyard with chairs, tables, and just perfect for dining or just relaxing. Sylvie, the owner has decorated everywhere with personal knickknacks and plants galore. Our stay there was one of the best we’ve ever stayed!

We cannot find anything negative to report. Although there is no on site parking, parking is convenient and safe. I am afraid my pictures do not do the gite and the town justice. Both are much lovelier than my pictures show.

We stayed at Gite la Comete at the beginning of our travels outside of Paris. At the time I wrote a positive review of this property. However, it disappeared before I could add pictures and submit. But now, I am glad it did. We are completing a 3 month trip to France from the U.S.A. We have stayed in 4 star hotels and gites of every description. We have enjoyed every place we have stayed. BUT, our hearts keep returning to Sylvie and Gite la Comete. From the moment we booked the gite, Sylvie was responsive to our messages, very helpful, warm and welcoming. When she met us at the train station, we felt that we were already friends. She did everything in her power to make sure we had a wonderful visit in Chinon. The gite is very comfortable and beautifully furnished and decorated. Although the bed is a pull out sofa, it is large and comfortable. I cannot begin to describe the lush garden setting of the gite. With two private outdoor living areas, we were surrounded by climbing roses new flowers blooming every day. The kitchen was extremely well stocked, though small. But it was all that we needed and there were excellent outdoor cooking options, as well. The location was perfect for us. The garden wall adjoins the Medieval Royal Fortress of Chinon. Nearby parking is abundant and seeing the expanse of surrounding vineyards as we entered our vehicle was soul satisfying. The gite is a short walk to the elevators that take you down to the main square of town. The town is a gem of medieval architecture, but has all the resources and conveniences one could want. It is an excellent base for exploring the Loire Valley and Sylvie is an excellent resource for discovering its secrets and surprises. Sylvie scrupulously respects your privacy, but you are cheating yourself if you limit your interactions to "Bonjour" and "Au revoir".

We genuinely couldn't find one fault.

This was a little oasis and beautifully decorated by Sylvie, the owner. Everything you needed was supplied in the gite. The patios and garden areas are gorgeous, a perfect place to relax. It's a very short walk to the lift or steps which bring you into Chinon centre where there are plenty of restaurants/bars to chose from. Sylvie is such a warm, welcoming host and has all the area information on hand.
