Returning to the Loire Valley and France...

We have started taking bookings for our vacation rental houses here in Southern Touraine and are delighted to report that we have returning guests in each of the houses, This is particularly pleasing as it confirms to us that the service we are offering must be along the right lines plus the area has so much to offer you just have to return. At 'Le Bourg' (which we manage) we have our 4 lovely american friends actually returning for their fourth time, having fallen in love with Barrou and the 'village' experience.
The houses:

'Old Walnut Mill'

The 'Old Walnut Mill' is a delightful 19th century 2 bedroom cottage in the village of Barrou in Indre-et-Loire, Centre-Val de Loire France. The village sits on the banks of the river Creuse surrounded by rolling countryside. It has welcomed guests from around the world who have enjoyed the ‘French village experience’. In 2016 we had the pleasure of receiving gifted painters who enjoyed the many opportunities to capture images of this very pretty part of France. The house is within walking distance of the village amenities, the restaurant, boulangerie, butcher and convenience store.




'Les Balcons' 
Quality two storey 3 bedroom  Loire Valley house for rent in the popular village of Le Grand Pressigny in the department of Indre et Loire, France. The village’s location makes it an ideal base to explore the Loire Valley, its chateaux and other delights as well many of the attractions of the neighbouring department of Vienne such as Futuroscope. The village itself has a restaurant, two bars, boulangerie (baker) boucherie (butcher) and épicier (grocer) pharmacy and newsagent all within walking distance of the house.




'Le Bourg'
Lovely riverside barn conversion with separate 'petite maison'. The house is in the village of Barrou, in the department of Indre et Loire, France and as the name suggests 'Le Bourg' is located in the centre of the village. Its situation means you have the benefits of experiencing a small French village but you are also ideally placed to visit all the major attractions of the Loire valley plus some of the highlights of the neighbouring department of 'Vienne'

Great house, loved the balcony truly exceptional hosts in Jim & Pauline. Lots of interesting places to visit - must sees are Chenonceau and Angles-sur-l'Anglin. Make sure you visit the local pottery shop in the village and don't miss the local patisserie.

Winter colour at Les Balcons in Le Grand Pressigny.


We got a few opportunities during December here in the Loire Valley to finish tidying up the garden at Les Balcons our vacation rental house in Le Grand Pressigny, where we were given a little show of winter colour.
