Interesting quirky house

We had a fabulous stay here. Set in a cliff face. It was so hot outside but lovely & cool in our ‘cave’ Lots of good walks for our dog. Would recommend this house as it was so different. Catherine, property manager visited & was lovely.

Excellent sejour !

Nous avons passé un excellent sejour dans ce gite troglodyte qui a ravi nos enfants ! Nous avons également profité du calme du jardin ensoleillé et fleuri. Le gite est idéalement situé pour visiter les chateaux de la Loire, le zoo de Beauval,... une très belle expérience que nous recommandons !

SUPERBE

Quel agréable séjour! Tout en étant retirée et privée, la location est à cinq minutes des commerces du village et à dix minutes de Montrichard qui offre une plage sur le Cher. Très bien localisée, les châteaux de la Loire et autres activités sont facilement accessibles en moins de 45 minutes. La maison troglodytique est charmante, bien aménagée et bien équipée. Vraiment une belle trouvaille.

Relaxant !

Séjour début juillet dans ce remarquable gite , il a fait très chaud , mais dans le gîte troglodyte nous étions au frais ! Le gîte est très bien placé , de très beaux paysages entour la localisation . De belles visites très proche . Les habitants de ce village sont accueillants et dès que l’on discute avec eux , ils savent transmettre leur savoir , leurs anecdotes . Ce fut un séjour parfait . Notre hôte a été très gentille et précise pour que tout se passe à merveille . Merci encore à Catherine pour sa bienveillance . Rémi Dusellier

gîte de charme

Maison troglodyte très confortable. Le jardin clos était super pour nos chiens et il y a une belle promenade le long du Cher à proximité. Le temps n'était pas très ensoleillé pendant notre séjour mais nous avons été ravis de pouvoir nous asseoir dehors. Pratique pour de nombreux vignobles et sites touristiques. Un séjour très agréable
