Fantastic house in a lovely area

We spent a lovely week here at the end of July. We enjoyed walking, cycling, canoeing and paddleboarding as well as visits to Saumur and Chinon. The house is fantastic, very well equipped in a peaceful location. We especially enjoyed the table tennis table and boules in the garden!

Spacious, comfortable cottage with lovely garden

Even better than the pictures! It was much more spacious than we were expecting, really well equipped and a lovely peaceful location. Comfortable beds and sitting area. I loved the garden, nicely planted and lots of different areas to sit in at different times of the day. Plenty of things to do near Saumur, and if you are prepared to travel a bit further in the opposite direction - a whole host of chateau's and gardens to explore.

Peace and quiet

Lovely house in a beautiful, peaceful location Very well equipped everywhere apart from the garden chairs which were broken so not enough for all 6 of us to sit and eat outside. A brilliant location for visiting chateaux, swimming lakes and wine-tasting at the caves in Saumur. Darren gave really useful information and recommendations for visits in the local area.

Wonderful experience!

Well, what a wonderful time we have had in France! We all fell in love with the location and the Ashley/Holloway party thought La Croix was a beautiful home - it really was hard to leave and we will hold the memories of a good time for years. Thank you for your directions, instructions and advice - all were welcome and very useful and we were able to get about with ease and find all we needed. Thank you again for a wonderful week.

Prima woning in (te) rustige omgeving

Karakteristieke ruime woning in rustige omgeving op het platteland. Helaas niet veel te beleven in de omgeving (zeker niet voor kinderen). Woning van alles voorzien. Bovenetage wel heel erg warm bij buitentemp boven de 25 graden. Woning schoon opgeleverd (behalve inventaris keuken). Prettige, snelle en adequate communicatie met eigenaar. PS WIFI verbinding te traag/ instabiel om er iets nuttigs mee te kunnen doen.

Comfortable gite

La Croix was a comfortable and cosy gite with a beautiful garden. You can live the love and dedication that went into the restauration of this Gite. The weather wasn’t the best - like in most places in Europe - but the close vicinity of chateaux, towns at the WII made for a great week!

Last minute break

We have just spent a wonderful week in this beautifully renovated cottage. Very spacious and full of character, whilst retaining the charm of the cottage, all modern amenities are at hand. Located in amongst the local fruit farms and forests of the area we loved plotting our destination for the next day, enjoying our aperitif in the garden , watching the sun set. We were never short of somewhere to explore with Chateaux, markets and lovely little towns in abundance,all within very reasonable drive times. Due to work commitments we needed to book somewhere from Friday to Friday and this was no problem, Louise was extremely accommodating and all my communications and concerns were dealt with immediately. We would highly recommend LaCroix, it gave us everything we hoped for and more. Thank you Louise and Peter.
