Fantastic location to relax, with Chinon a short drive away for restaurants and shopping. The property is very well maintained and modernised historic building with excellent grounds and facilities.... and surprisingly large! Could not wish for more accomodating hosts and look forward to returning someday.

Absolutely nothing. Perfect in every way.

A little slice of heaven. Adored everyone minute here. ❤️ The swimming pool was a bonus, and the whole property was beautifully maintained and cared for.

N/A

Chantal welcomed us with a big smile and made our stay lovely. The place is far away from noisy cities and enjoys tranquility and at the same time all facilities needed. It was a perfect stay for us, a pity we did not stay longer!

Be aware that location is rural. Nothing within walking distance. This was not a concern a concern for us as we arrived by car.

Outstanding. Historic cottage is large with modern updates: living room, kitchen, dining room, and two bedrooms. Laundry (washing machine) on site. Chantal was an excellent host and met us with keys. She helped with restaurants and other suggestions. Location is very quiet with convenient access to wineries, and other parts of Loire Valley. While here, we visited sites within an hour's drive: Angers, Chinon, and Tours.

absolutely nothing.

Chantal and her husband Didier are an exceptionally warm and welcoming couple. There is absolute nothing about this property or its situation which can be criticised. The property is very well kept, and is itself very attractive in a beautiful rural location.Spotlessly clean, and equipped to 5 star standard. we would not hesitate to recommend to family and friends. Thank you Chantal for a wonderful stay.

We only wished we could of stayed for longer, we did not want to leave!

We were on 2 week tour of France staying at 7 various locations and we booked this stay at last minute and wow are we glad we found this hidden gem! It is one of the nicest private cottages we have ever stayed in. This beautiful historic building is a detached cottage fitted out to the highest standards more like a luxury boutique hotel than a self catering cottage. The beds and luxury bedding are so comfortable you will not want to get out of bed! The bathrooms are so luxurious too with slippers, gowns and luxury toiletries. Every little detail has been thought out to perfection, providing everything you could possibly need and more. We loved going out to explore the region in the daytime and coming back to sit on the terrace with a drink watching the sun set over the garden or relaxing in our own private hot tub. The location is so quiet and peaceful with the most amazing sunsets and red skies. We originally only booked for 1 night but cancelled our next hotel just so we could stay here for another night. We wished we could of stayed for even longer but had to get a ferry home! Chantel is the nicest host we have ever met and it was our pleasure and a privilege to stay in this beautiful cottage. One day we will return and plan another tour of France just so we can stay here again. It is pure perfection.

Banged my head a few times but otherwise there was not anything that we did not like!

Secluded, yet well located only 6 or so miles from Chinon, this quiet converted Farmhouse had everything we could have wished for in a cottage. Classily decorated and stocked with every facility you would need for a week long stay, including a superb hot-tub and Netflix, we would recommend Cottage D'Eleanor and would love to have the opportunity to visit again. The host, Chantal, who lives on site, was always available to assist us with any need, from recommending excellent restaurants (we would certainly suggest Les Annees 30 in Chinon) to the best chateau to visit (there are 79 along the Loire valley!). The views from the farmhouse are lovely and the cottage still retains many historical touches whilst being cleverly modernised for 21st century life (mind your head on the oak beams in the second bedroom though :). Great value for money, we felt this is a place to be highly recommended.

Leaving

Everything. The accommodation was "simply the best"... superceded only by the owners welcome could not be warmer. We work in international tourism and it would be impossible to find a better accommodation along with the nicest owners you could wish for. A winning combination. We have discovered a"rare gem". And we'll be back!. "A la prochain"

Very friendly host, luxureous home

We liked everything - the only comment about the location is that you need a car as there are no shops or restaurants within walking distance. We knew this before booking, however, so it was not a problem for us.

An excellent cottage that served the 3 of us (2 adults, 1 teenager) very well. It had everything we needed and wanted, plus the hot tub was very welcome to relax in. The hosts have gone to a lot of trouble to think of everything that might be needed for a perfect stay!

Being in the midst of a farmland, there were a lot of insects and spiders. Small little insects on the bed.

Chantal was a very friendly and welcoming host! The cottage feels like a part of history, with modern amenities like a jacuzzi. Kitchen facilities was great too. Chinon town is just a 10min drive away.

Nothing!

Absolutely amazing! The property is stunning, in a serene location. The apartment is spacious, has all the amenities one would need and the beds are super comfortable. What made the stay even more special is the host. Chantal and her husband were completely welcoming and warm. Chantal was there to help us with any need and made us feel completely welcome and comfortable. This was one of the best stays we have had. We will definitely be going back!
