Studio Apartment Historic Town Centre

Very enjoyable stay. Great ground floor gite with everything you could possibly need, including a terrace to enjoy a glass of wine. La Charite sur Loire is charming with much to see in the surrounding area. Kelly and Byron very helpful and informative.

This medeival town was the perfect place to explore the area. La Charite sur Loire itself was a delight to walk through....lots of history! (LOL!) Byron and Kelly are wonderful hosts.

Shops and restaurants are just a short walk away.

The studio is large and the kitchen and bath are very modern....wonderful shower! The window over the kitchen sink is at street level making the apartment more of an"English Basement".

There is a complete and separate kitchen which is very nice and totally unexpected for a "studio".

It's amazing what Byron and Kelly have been able to do with these ancient buildings. A very enjoyable stay.

PS...definitely take Byron's invitation for a tour.... his enthusiasm for La Charite is contagious!

We stayed for two weeks in Bardin Suite. This is a beautiful area and good for a truly "French" experience. Byron and Kelly provided the information we needed to see the best of the attractions in the time we had there. They were always available to help us enjoy our time in La Charite.

Everything you need - shops, restaurants etc is within easy walking distance but you can also rent a car from nearby Nevers if you want to explore the French countryside.

Bardin suite is nicely furnished and we enjoyed our private patio immensely.

Very nice well located apartment, with good services and kitchen. The hosts we very good and helpful. We had a problem with the TV and they came around straight away and fixed the set up.

An interesting small town on the Loire, and as we were traveling by bike it was a welcome stop for three nights to recharge and do the washing.

We visited Pouilly-sur-Loire and had a good lunch and visit to a cave.

We had been meandering in France for a month, moving on every night or two, when we noticed the listing for Kelly & Byron's gites, and decided to settle down for a week in La-Charite-sur-Loire in a part of Burgundy we had not been before. Bardin suite was just our size, and probably the most comfortable place we have stayed of our many European vacation rentals through the years, and maybe the only one that was exactly as represented.

They've thought of everything. The comfortable bed, the nice towels and linens, the easy chairs, the well furnished kitchen, the rain shower bath, and even more importantly to us, the good reading lights -- combined with Kelly's graciousness to make us grateful that we had found such a warn, pleasant place.

The Harkers are such nice people, and we really enjoyed their hospitality. Byron's enthusiasm for his very interesting adopted town is infectious, and his local anecdotes and tidbits bring its history to life. Parking is right in front, and there is much to see and do within an hour or two. We liked it so much that we wanted to stay longer, so we did!
