Fantastic!

The best gite we have stayed in. Tastefully decorated, generous household appliances and goods (including sharp knives and everything you could possibly need to cook!), fantastic pool and hot tub, immaculately presented to the highest of standards and really friendly hosts in a great location. We'll be back! Thank you Virginie & Herve!

Beautiful Gite and Pool

Fabulous heated pool. Gite had all the kitchen equipment you could want. Friendly and helpful owners. Beautiful location in a very quiet hamlet a couple of km outside a village that had all the shops, cafes etc you need. The only way it could be improved is air conditioning in the bedrooms as we had a very hot week of weather!

A special holiday at Theneuil

Virginie & Herve are a delightful couple and made us feel so very welcome at their gite. We enjoyed our time staying there and it was wonderful to have the use of the swimming pool. Even my husband who is not so keen on swimming nowadays, went in with me twice as it was really warm, 30C! The gite is also VERY well equipped. Kindest regards to our hosts, From John & Marilyn

The Gite is just as it looks on the photos. Very clean and well organised and have everything you could possibly need and more. I loved cooking in the kitchen and eating either inside or on the patio. The outdoor pool is the perfect size and the temperature was amazing. When the outdoor weather wasnt as great the hot tub was a fabulous addition and was well used by us. Location wise we did a few bikes rides and the information left by the hosts in the gite was great. Lots of cycle and walking maps. Also we took our childrens bike but myself and husband used the bikes provided by the owners and these were great. I wish we could have stayed longer!

Beautiful gite and fantastic hosts

Gite location is very peaceful, with the garden and pool not overlooked at all, and the hot tub included with our week-long rental was a wonderful addition to our holiday experience on the cooler days. Also well-located for visits to Saumur, Chinon, Tours and with many chateaus within an hour's drive. The gite is superbly equipped and very comfortable, with electric 'blackout' blinds in the bedrooms to keep them cool during the day and very dark if you like a lie-in in the morning. The TV room has plenty of seating,but the extra sofa and chairs in the main room were great for being together during the day. Cooking facilities were great with a small range cooker, microwave and the gas 'plancha' (BBQ) was well used and easy to clean. Virginie and Herve are very friendly hosts, offering assistance when needed but otherwise allowing us to have a great time on our own, with the layout of their property allowing the gite to feel separated from their home and garden. Car parking was not a problem, felt very safe leaving it in the church car park, and the separate gate for us was very convenient. We were also invited to bring the car into the driveway to unload on arrival day right next to the gite, and load up the afternoon before departure, leaving the car there overnight for security. All in all, this is a fantastic place to stay.

A wonderful Holiday

This was out second time at this amazing gite. Like everyone,we really needed a break after the stresses of the last two years.We couldn't think of anywhere we'd rather be than at L'esprit de Clocher. Virginie and Herve were incredibly welcoming and were there if we needed them but were otherwise discrete. Although the gite is within their grounds,it is very separate and affords privacy. The fabulous pool and the hot tub were so welcome, as were the black out shutters in the bedrooms. The beds are very comfortable and the water pressure for the showers is excellent. Walks from the gite are many and beautiful. Hubby took his bike and discovered an array of wonderful roads and lanes whilst never meeting another vehicle! We revisited a lot of castles that we had been to in 2018,our favourite being Chinon. We also discovered some new ones which we can highly recommend. They are Chateaus Usse, Langeais and Cande. We are already planning our return visit for 2023! Thank you Virginie and Herve.

Excellent séjour

Logement confortable et très bien équipé, Virginie et Hervé ont un vrai sens de l'accueil qui va bien au delà d'un simple échange locataire-loueur... Les environs sont riches d'histoire : Châteaux de Rivau, Chinon, Azay le Rideau, Langeais.. Mais aussi de vignobles et de caves.. Aussi, il nous faudra passer plus d'un week-end chez Virginie et Hervé pour visiter la région et apprécier tout ce qu'offre leur gîte.

Belle surprise

Nous avons passé un week-end dans le gîte de Virginie et Hervé. Nous avons été accueillies avec beaucoup de gentillesse et de chaleur humaine. Ils sont adorables et vraiment très très accueillant. Quand au gîte en lui même , il est tel que décrit dans l’annonce . Aucune mauvaise surprise ; c’est très mignon , très joli , très propre et remarquablement bien équipé. Le jacuzzi et la piscine sont d’une propreté irréprochable. Je recommande 1000 fois cette adresse ; j’y retournerai d’ailleurs avec grand plaisir . Un week-end est trop court pour découvrir toutes les richesses de la région et profiter des équipements du gîte qui propose un repos fort agréable. Merci encore aux propriétaires qui sont d’une gentillesse exemplaire.
