The most Idyllic picturesque Holiday Home

Review Submitted: November 15, 2011 Date of Stay: June 2011
My husband and I spent two amazing weeks there after his return from a year in Afghanistan. It was just what we and especially he needed. Perfect sunny weather, stunning scenery,and just lots to do. If we didn't spend the days cycling or running through the beautiful countryside, we would venture out sightseeing (thanks to the vast knowledge of Hilary and David we were never at a loss of things to do).

We would both go back in a heartbeat and look forward to seeing the most hospitable and friendly owners Hilary and David again. La Grange is a stunning renovation that you can tell has been a labor of love. We cant wait to go back and have another perfect holiday.

Dream vacation in the French countryside

Review Submitted: November 12, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
visiting the Loire valley with young children is easier to do when you have a real home away from home. La Grange is exactly that. It is clean, new, spacious and comfortable with beautiful bedrooms, very well equipped kitchen, fun living room and the best yard for a lazy afternoon. It is set among fields and forests where we took great walks with our children. The location is perfect for visiting Touraine and the charming owners know everything about the surroundings and are eager to share their knowledge. We loved cooking at home and eating on the outer deck but we also loved the restaurant at nearby Chambon called "Le Vieux Fournil", we couldn't believe how good the food was in this tiny village. I would recommend this property to families that like to spend quality time in the countryside but still want to enjoy some of the sights and attractions of the Loire. The property has files with info on EVERYTHING around. Our best days were looking up the location of the daily market, buying all the goodies we wanted and walking up to the local Chateau, for a royal picnic.

A lovely, lovely place

Review Submitted: November 12, 2011 Date of Stay: August 2011
We stayed a week in mid August, and though the weather was merely OK, the hospitality of David and Hilary was extra special - and the house they pulled together, through much hard work and dedication, an extraordinary home for their guests - the hamlet and the surrounding area is lovely for walks - and there is so much to do in the area, that you will wish you had booked for two weeks. We (family of 2 adults+two rather energetic boys of 7 and 3) found the house a wonderful place to stay - we would - and do - recommend it to anyone.
