Photos and Description of this Indre-et-Loire holiday farmhouse Once the farm to the Chateaux de Cussay offering luxury self catering accom

La Roche d'Enchaille is a barn conversion located between the medieval market towns of Ligueil and Descartes; ideally positioned for exploring the Loire Valley and its Chateaux. Set in to a hillside with a wood behind, La Roche d'Enchaille enjoys uninterrupted views of the surrounding rolling farmland and woodlands. The accommodation is a careful restoration and conversion of the farm to the Chateaux de Cussay, this dates back to 1268 when the first record of the Chateaux can be traced as being sold to Guy the Doyen of St Martin. The main West-facing wall is formed from the original chateaux ramparts and vestiges of these are present through out the grounds as well as entrances to caves and tunnels. The locals swear there is a tunnel linking La Roche d’Enchaille with the Church in the centre of Cussay some 5 km away. The Chateaux had several roles during its long history, including operating as a mint striking coinage back in the 16th century and more recently as a “Relais de Post'

Review Submitted: October 11, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
This place is every bit as good as the web site says. It is beautifully restored in French country style, spotlessly clean and very spacious.
The kitchen is fantastically well equipped and also has a gas bbq which we used every night bar one. The terrace faces west so we sat out every evening and watched the sun set- gorgeous. The immediate area is very rural which for us was great and the locals were very friendly and helpful. Only an hour to the big Loire chateaux though there are lots of smaller ones nearby. Great market in nearby Loches.
Owners were really helpful and friendly and on hand but never intrusive. Recommend to anyone 10 out of 10.

Peaceful family holiday in delightful surroundings

Family from Wells Somerset UK
Review Submitted: August 28, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
La Roche d'Enchaille turned out to be even lovelier than we had hoped from the information provided. Extremely spacious, sensitively restored and spotlessly clean, we very much enjoyed our week there in August. The owners were very discrete but always helpful when approached (gite is not overlooked at all). Our whole family (parents plus teenagers) made daily use of the table tennis table, boules pitch and bicycles (be sure to cycle to the boulangerie before 9 am if you want croissants though!). Great selection of books to read, including children's picture books. We entertained two other families for lunch very comfortably and were glad of the gas barbecue. Easy reach of two supermarkets and many delightful places such as Loches (medieval walled citadel) and of course the chateaux. Quite happy to stay put though, watching the sun set over the fields of sunflowers from the vantage point of the stone balcony. We would love to return and have already recommended the property to our friends.
