Spacious renovated country farmhouse 5 minutes into the countryside from the beautiful Chateau of Villandry.
The gite,"Prune", welcomes you in with its rustic charm, all painstakingly renovated with an eye for the visual aspect, the decoration is quite original, in so far as Mr Péruchon (the owner) is a graphic designer by trade, so there is fine attention to detail.y waywith a colour scheme differentiating the individual gites. This would become more evident if you were to rent all three for a large group of friends and family, able to stroll between gites and appreciate the atmosphere.
Excellent fitted kitchen, really well thought out. A lot of thought and effort that has gone into creating a homely atmosphere, in every sense, right down to making the kitchen as familiar as possible.
The grounds are large and nicely arranged with large trees (of various kinds) giving shade for hot days, alternatively you could go for a swim in the pool ( fenced and alarmed for safety) which is set in the centre of a large lawn, big enough for ball games.
For the youngsters there's also a children's play area and a frog pond which you can fish for frogs, no kidding! Apparently it's like fishing for fish, but a piece of red cloth is used instead of a hook (the equipment for this activity is supplied). |

| Excellent fitted kitchens, really well thought out.
Gas stove, Oven, toaster, microwave, dishwasher, really everything one could need, including elbow-space, to prepare a delicious meal.
Kitchen come living room come dining room with enough space to kick your feet up and enjoy the good life.
Alternatively you might decide that it's preferable to enjoy being outside, so there's a set of garden chairs and table with a fitted barbeque to widen your options. |

| Prune - 1 dormitary style open loft with exposed beams that has three single beds, and at the far end is a double bed.
Would be ideal for a couple with children.
Good quality new beds making the prospect of a relaxing holiday all the more probable.

Three gites in one or one gite split into three means you can enjoy a pleasant family holiday or as a group of friends, this delightful demeure accomodates up to 19 people.
"Tilleul", "Potiron" and "Prune", with a colour scheme differentiating the individual gites. This would become more evident if you were to rent all three for a large group of friends and family, able to stroll between gites and appreciate the atmosphere.
The grounds of the gite are large grassy areas with trees for shade and a swimming pool so it is possible to spend your entire holiday here. Also, as local farmers' fare is available, one has the impression of being really part of the community.
In the locality, as you would expect, there are plenty of excellent restaurants, but there are two which are really quite exceptional, and unbelievably inexpensive.
And then of course there is the Chateau of Villandry, which boasts the most celebrated gardens of all the chateaux, it even has a maze that you can't get lost in. |
