Nathalie was cheerful and helpful, making us feel completely at home and Tanguy was exceptionally quick to respond to a small problem. The super king sized beds were ultra comfortable. A bedroom downstairs was particularly useful for one of our group with limited mobility. The accommodation was spacious and imaginatively decorated. Situated a few hundred steps from the Loire, many historic sites were within easy reach by car. We had a super stay.

As described in the other reviews - so lovely!

Great communication with Nathalie before we got to property. And when we contacted her during our stay. Great parking space. Cool property on hot days as long as you close the curtains when you’re out for the day. Two fridges with the small freezer compartments at the top. Lovely courtyard with deck chairs and a dining table with cushions. Great location between Amboise and Blois. Just for info -there is a train line about half a mile away and it’s a road that runs right against the property has traffic quite regularly - but you would have to be VERY fussy for this to be a problem.We did a balloon ride with Balloon revolution and they flew right over Veuves where the Gite is.

Ideal location for seeing the Loire Valley

Lovely property; the photos don't do the outside seating area justice. Perfectly placed for visiting chateaux and vineyards. Lots of information for local area provided by Nathalie. The restaurant in the village, La Croix Blanche, well worth a visit. Excellent food and lovely eating in the garden.

Charming and Comfortable, But a Bit Isolated

Beautiful gite, centrally located for excursions throughout the Loire Valley. Don't miss Chateau Chaumont, especially the gardens, and Leonardo da Vinci's final home in Amboise. The gite is incredibly clean with a well-stocked kitchen. Unfortunately, the village has no cafe, boulangeries, or tabac, so you really need a car or to be a bicyclist! Nathalie is wonderful, very communicative and eager for us to have a good time - helpful that she speaks English! À lot of tourist info available, pamphlets, etc. Very quiet and peaceful. Comfortable furniture, great showers! Wonderful restaurants in Boise and Amboise.

Wonderful stay in Veuves, close to Amboise!

Nathalie's place is wonderful, in a small village a 15-min drive from Amboise. Very spacious and beautifully renovated, the accommodation is even better than the pictures! Nathalie was very helpful in offering recommendations and was responsive to our needs; would highly recommend as a base for a family or group of friends exploring the Loire Valley. Plus, the restaurant at the end of the road (La Croix Blanche) is marvellous.

Un sejour entre amis, ponctué de visites et de parcours golfiques. Emplacement ideal, logement confortable et très complet, mais les escaliers en font un logement peu adapté aux personnes à mobilite difficile. Une chambre au rdc est cependant disponible. Hote accueillant.

Séjour agréable dans un bel endroit

Le gîte est aménagé avec goût et il est très bien équipé. La petite cour fermée permet de profiter de l'extérieur au calme. L'emplacement est idéal pour visiter les nombreux châteaux de la Loire qui sont très proches pour la plupart Blois, Amboise, Chenonceaux, Villandry... Nous regrettons de n'être resté qu'une semaine sur place, il y avait tant à voir que nous aurions aimé prolonger ce séjour. Nous reviendrons très certainement.

Home Away in Loire Valley

The gite was perfect for three women friends traveling together, giving us the opportunity for fellowship when we wanted but also privacy when we wanted that. A lot of thought had been put into the renovation of the gite. It had plenty of natural light and was aesthetically pleasing. It had also been outfitted with the guest in mind, plenty of space for clothes, etc. We were thrilled to find a place with three showers too! Nathalie was very helpful in orienting us to the area. The location is in a small village not too far from Amboise which was a great location for visiting the chateaux. The village is very small and does not have a lot of amenities but does have a fantastic restaurant. There is another village about a mile away that has a lovely little epicerie where you can pick up your pain au chocolat in the morning. Overall, it was a fantastic value for the money and a delightful stay. I will comment that it would not be good for someone who is mobility impaired with a winding spiral staircase and steps without railing down into the upstairs bedrooms. That said we were 3 fit women about 70 years old and it did not pose a problem for us.
