Castle holiday rentals in Loire Valley

We spent a family weekend at Stéphanie's in December. The house was exactly what we were looking for and more: Very well maintained, equipped, spacious, clean, bright, quiet... The living space (main living room, dining room/kitchen) is very nice and allowed us to have a great time with family. There's also a Carrefour Market a 10-minute drive away for small errands. We had no trouble finding the place. Stéphanie is easily reachable. We recommend it! Thank you Stéphanie for this weekend!

Beautiful gite in a fantastic location with lots of character. Well equipped with large fridge freezer, Nespresso machine, dishwasher, washing machine, new cooker and plenty of crockery and cooking equipment. Swimming pool was very well used in the sweltering temperatures. Pleasant outside eating area with lots of birds, wildlife and views to watch. Excellent host who was very helpful and friendly. Good wifi. Lots of activities to do nearby.

We stayed at the Chateau with our two children and had a wonderful stay. The wine tastings, BBQ- and pizza evenings were amazing. The Chateau is very child friendly and there is plenty to do in the area. Charlotte and Jerome are very kind and friendly hosts. Will definitely go back.

We had an exceptional stay. The owners are remarkably kind, discreet but very responsive, the castle is true to its description, easy to access and very well maintained. The children were able to frolic, we were able to enjoy exceptional time and have lunch outside. We will come back without hesitation, it is an address that must be kept for family or friends gatherings.

Our family of four - with 2 kids ages 10 and 9 - loved staying at Chateau Fontenay's garden cottage. We loved being on the beautiful grounds of the Chateau. The pool was perfect! The kids loved playing ping pong outdoors near the pool and loved having access to the bikes (many to choose from so that we all found bikes to fit us!) for a ride along the Cher (a bike path runs right along the front of the property) to the boulangerie in the morning. The location is perfect for visiting Chenonceau and so many other chateaux. It was a quick drive to Amboise for dinner (although we also had a lovely dinner in Blere) and well-placed for a trip to Loches for the Wednesday morning market. Nathalie was so kind to write out a long list of suggested restaurants for us to try out in the area. We ate well! The cottage is rustic, but clean and had everything we needed, including a little laundry shed out back. We ate mostly breakfasts at the cottage, but there was also a grill if we had wanted to cook dinner for ourselves and a nice table to sit outside. The grassy area between us and the other cottage was good for our son to run and play football. We wouldn't hesitate to book this cottage again!

Really enjoyed this peaceful chateau. The house is great and having the pool and tennis courts and space for kids meant everyone had a really good week. Would recommend

All as described. Beautiful complex. A great experience. Great host. Ideal for excursions or simply enjoying the life at the farm.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay! We arrived later in the day and did not speak directly with Gilles upon arrival, but were assisted by one of the residents at the château who directed us to the man who assists Gilles guests. He was incredibly kind and helpful throughout the entire process and assisted us with having our bags brought up the breathtakingly beautiful, but very large staircase, as there is no elevator. He and the other residents that helped us with our luggage have our most sincere gratitude! If you are in need of accommodations in this area, we highly recommend staying here! We are already planning to return in the future.

A fantastic family chateau that accommodated 3 families comfortably, and even nicer in real life than in the photos. Large well kept grounds and loads of space to explore. There is plenty to do in the local area. Basic amenities within a few minutes' drive including a great riverside bistro in Daon, the nearby large town of Chateau-Gontier is 15 mins away while Angers is around 40 mins away for everything a city provides. Highly recommended!

Wow! This place was truly magic and way beyond our expectations. The chateau was perfectly well furnished with great taste. But more impressive were the grounds around the chateau. The views from the windows are incredible, with very old beautiful trees, grassland, a river, like paintings! We took every day walks of several kilometers among those trees within the property, with total silence. Sometimes we biked in the property. On top of this, there is a nice swimming pool and a playing room that our daughter loved, and the river where we could go with a canoe. We stayed here around 3 weeks and plan to return.

A great stay in a superb and extremely relaxing site - ideal for a stay with family - Fabienne and her husband are very friendly and develop a very nice project.

wonderful place to stay, we really enjoyed all the 'on site' resources such as the table tennis, pool table, Maze and of course the pool. Great base from which to visit more of the region

A wonderful stay in the chateau, we really enjoyed this superb house and hope to come again!

Pleasant stay in a nice setting! We enjoyed the calm environment with our family.

Wonderful location and great service! The place was well maintained and matched the description. Host was very nice

It was a lovely little overnight stay at a beautiful place. We could easily have stayed for a week. Absolutely beautiful.

We had a great time at Château des Hommes. The environment is very beautiful and the hosts are very kind. Albine and her whole family do everything to ensure you have a wonderful stay. Breakfast is hearty and the bedding is very good. We loved it and will be back with pleasure! 🥰

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at Albine's place, it was beautiful and relaxing. Exactly what we needed! Her husband and her were accommodating and attentive to our needs, we had a really nice time. Definitely would like to return one day!

Very good stay spent within the accommodation. This is a great experience.

Stunning building in a beautiful gardens and a delightful, peaceful village. Valérie could not have been more helpful. It’s hard to describe how beautiful the grounds were. The photos don’t do it justice. And my kids loved the pool table in what has to be the coolest attic conversion in the Loire valley.

Wonderful stay in the beautiful King suite that Château de la Bainerie!! The castle life was at the rendezvous …. The size of the bedroom and bathroom , the brightness with three large bays , bedding …. Everything was spotless . As soon as you arrive, you feel at home ... at the castle!! Our host is very discreet and always there when you need to . I recommend it. For a very nice weekend experience ….

Absolutely stunning location and accommodation! Loved every minute of our stay and felt totally spoilt being able to use the pool and relax in the gardens whenever we wanted. Extremely friendly hosts, nothing was too much trouble. An excellent place to unwind. Highly recommended, we will be back!

When I reached out to Albine, to give her an ETA, she messaged back soon. She was very welcoming, with clear instructions for entering the room and breakfast. Our room was a large comfortable space with good light, screened windows to let the clean country air into our room. We kept the windows open the entire stay to hear crickets, birds, thunder and rainstorm. Beautiful countryside estate with castle ruins on the property to explore. We didn't get a chance to use the pool area, but Albine had placed "pool towels" in our room, just in case. As a guest, you need to know, you are really in the country. The closest town that we frequented was Langeais and Villandry, with each having at least one chateau to visit and plenty of restaurants, chocolate shops, bakeries, and casual places to get a drink and a french style sandwich. This was a good base to do our daily exploring. Albine had many suggestions and knows the history of the area extremely well. Thank you Albine. Hope to visit soon!

We had a lovely stay at this authentic Chateau de la Bainerie. Check-in is self-contained and easy; many rooms are open to discover the castle. This one being quite huge the cost of maintenance is I imagine high, so we are happy to have been able to participate humbly with this unusual stay.
