Superb Holiday Home
A delightful house, we really enjoyed staying here. It is atmospheric and full of beautiful things, so very different from many holiday rentals.
The renovation has been sympathetic and is very much as represented on the website.
We found it to be extremely comfortable. No corners have been cut with " cheap and cheerful " furnishings, everything is of very good quality. We particularly
enjoyed the vintage pieces of furniture and, for example, the Picquot ware tea set.
2 gorgeous Le Corbusier tables to use and enjoy will perhaps help you get the idea of the remarkable standards found at " Le Logis ".
Beds and linens were very comfortable with a good supply of top quality towels which are professionally laundered along with sheets and duvet covers.
The kitchen is extremely well equipped with no corners cut but we did miss a mug for my husband's tea as he was not so happy using the lovely tea bowls. We travel with our own coffee machine and espresso size cups so it wasn't a big problem.
The house was prepared to the highest standard and was immaculately clean.
We felt we were " on holiday " from the moment we arrived as the layout is so very different. There are 30 stairs in total to the three floors but we did not find them to be a problem. You soon get used to thinking of this slightly different way of life and leave things on the right floor ! It should be noted that I am not at all nimble and cannot see very well as I am awaiting eye surgery but had no difficulty with the stairs. I found them rather fun & it's really only one extra flight compared to home!
One thing we'd like to see is a better shower on the middle floor. The existing one is adequate but not of the standard of everything else.
It was 38C when we arrived but we found the bedroom on the middle floor to be cool and comfortable.
The house felt welcoming and it seems as if the renovation has been carried out by someone who loves the property and who has a trained eye for getting things right. We were captivated by " Le Logis " and consequently spent more time in than we were anticipating. The top garden with adjacent kitchenette was a lovely spot to sit morning and evenings with coffee or a sundowner and take in the views.
Montsoreau is attractive and permits easy access to many delights. Our particular favourite was "The Priory Abbey of Notre Dame de Cunault" beautifully situated in a riverside village.
In closing I would like to offer my Congratulations to the owner.
Heaven on earth!! 💖💖💖
Wow! Where do we start? The setting is absolutely idyllic. We stayed in the Porterie, next to the abbey. Cosy yet perfect. The house had every mod con we required yet still had all its rustic charm.
Our hosts made us feel like a part of the family from the moment we arrived yet were never intrusive in our holiday. They showed us around the historic setting and advised on all the surrounding points of interest. They were always on hand when we needed them.
We travelled with a thirteen year old and a six year old. The wifi connection meant we had a happy teen and the swimming pool, fully stocked with toys for the children, kept our six year old happy for hours.
Charming, relaxing, perfect!!
What an amazing find
We spent a week here exploring the area. Such an amazing place as a base. The accommodation is excellent and the walkable restaurants kept us busy for the week. You can walk across the road to the abbey where Richard the lion heart is buried. Sitting outside drinking wine made us feel very continental. Robert and Lucy are extremely helpful and made us feel very welcome.
