The apartments are comprised of recently remodelled suites of rooms, each with a private outdoor patio, nestled in a complex of medieval buildings. The suites are all located within the remnants of the ancient walls of the medieval town centre next to the magnificent 12th century Clunic priory church of Notre Dame which was named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1998.

In addition to wine tasting and sightseeing you can spend your days walking or cycling the many trails in the area the best of which run along the Canal Lateral a la Loire. There is also the opportunity to travel down the Loire by kayak or canoe.

Lucarne Suite - Summer 2008

Danièle Buckinghamshire
Review Submitted: September 2, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Danièle and Philip, Buckinghamshire

We spent a most relaxing week in La Charité. Kelly and Byron were so welcoming and helpful and the Lucarne Suite was excellent: beautifully renovated, spotlessly clean and so well equipped. It more than matched its description. The town itself was beautiful with many good restaurants and plenty of interesting local excursions ranging from walks around the town, kayaking on the Loire to hill walking in the Morvan further afield. Definitely a place to revisit.
Owner's Response: We try to be as acurate as possible on our website in describing our vacation rentals. We are always happy to hear that our guests enjoyed the local restaurants and exploring our town and the area. It is such a lovely region of France. Byron and Kelly

Lucarne Suite

yet Quebec Canada
Review Submitted: August 4, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The Lucarne Suite, a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom suite was perfect. It had all the amenities of home and a big plus for me, it had air conditioning and was a non smoking appartment.
The appartment was well located in a medieval town that had everything you needed to make your stay perfect (grocery store, bakery shops, tea shop, outdoor cafes and restaurants). The owners Byron and Kelly were wonderful and helped us find beautiful towns to visit within a hour drive. I would definitely recommend this gite to my friends.
We had a wonderful vacation and are so happy we found this lovely appartment. Marilyn & Ben.

Property in Burgandy

Anna and Bob Somerset
Review Submitted: June 25, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We enjoyed our stay in this lovely French town - Charite Sur Loire and it was made especially nice by the welcome given by Kelly and Byron. The apartment was very well appointed and an amazing place to stay, the windows overlook the cathedral and we sat outside on the turret overlooking the cathedral grounds.
The property was clean and well-maintained and the owners were very obliging. It was very pleasant being in a small town where there was a small supermarket, breadshops, bookshops etc. We ate lunches in a very good restaurant The Auberge de Seyr. The house with the apartments is right in the centre of the town.
We would thoroughly recommend it and will go again,
Anna and Bob

Lucarne suite - Easter 2009

Kings & Queens Wakefield, England
Review Submitted: April 27, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We had a great week staying at La Charite and unexpectedly good weather which saw us use the roof terrace several times. The apartment is very spacious for 2 adults and child and perfectly suited our needs. It would also be ideal for those with 2 kids or 2 adult couples as the rooms are on seperate floors with their own facilities.

It is on the main road of the town so you are in the heart of everything but it is not a noisy place at all. Very clean and tidy with the renovation retaining having been done in a manner sensitive to the building but enough mod cons to ensure comfort - heating, washing machine, nice showers, tv/dvd. Family friendly though not recommended if you have pram/pushchair/wheelchair given the spiral staircase.

We found eating out expensive but blame the Euro/£ rate.

You can park for free directly outside the property in time restricted zones but the free unlimited parking is only a short walk and can be seen from the apartment.

Overall we thought the apartment ideal for our stay but would want more outside space if we'd been there in the height of summer but then we like the sun and have an energetic 6 year old !

We have visited Burgundy several times over the last 15 years but not this part and found lots of things to do and see. We had planned a day trip into Paris if we had a wet day but never got round to it !

Byron and Kelly were great hosts and have the balance on their support/presence just right. We'd certainly go back.

Delightful flat in centre of town

aanda1 Nottingham
Review Submitted: November 14, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
We had a thoroughly enjoyable week in this excellently appointed apartment. Our hosts were very helpful and friendly. Being in the middle of this little town, all services were within two or three minute's walk, including an excellent choice of restaurants. The only drawback was the access via a stone spiral staircase, which continued up to a stunning little tower-patio with breath-taking views of the abbey and the surrounding roofscapes, - as one previous visitor had remarked "you don't want to discover that you left the cork screw behind, once you get up there. Some previous visitors remarked that the patio was not for the over 60s, however, we are both 70 and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thank you for a most enjoyable week.
