About this property

A haven of peace in the village of Montrésor (Châteaux de la Loire)

This house with character is surrounded by trees and is very close to a small river. You will find yourself in a haven of peace… Montrésor is a village which has been officially recognized as one of the most beautiful villages of France (label: “Plus beaux villages de France”) and it is only 500m away from la Ronde. You can also see the remains of a roman aqueduct just 50m away from the house on a recommended walking and horseback riding trail.
Why not spend some time in this haven of peace called la Ronde and visit Montrésor?

Relaxing stay near beautiful village

Lovely property with super friendly helpful host nearby. We were disappointed the local lake was closed for swimming at the time but there were 2 pools in nearby villages.

Superbe séjour!

Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour en famille à Montrésor (4 adultes et 2 enfants en bas âge). La maison est charmante entourée de verdure, confortable, très bien équipée, et bien située pour visiter les environs et se reposer (lecture, apéritifs, barbecue..). Katherine a été une hôte chaleureuse et attentionnée, et nous avons même eu le droit à quelques visites du petit Elton ! Merci pour l'accueil !

Lots of room and a sweet, quiet location.

The house had such character. I suggest that perhaps the comfy master bedroom easy chairs should be moved into the living room, or new sofas bought. The property is sweet, very private, and Montrésor is a lovely place to spend a holiday.

Beautiful, peaceful location.

The gite was very comfortable, well equipped and cool in the exceptional hot weather. It's location is perfect. Calm and peaceful, in extensive grounds with a gentle river flowing nearby. Lots of shady areas to sit and relax but also close to a footpath to the lake at Chemille. Montresor is a picturesque village with an interesting chateau and is about 10 minutes walk away, down a track. Most of all Katherine was the perfect host. So helpful, friendly and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Enjoyed this holiday home

We enjoyed this holiday home and the location very much. The owner is a very nice person who is happy to share information about the region. The holiday home fully meets our expectations. The owner has thought about it to have small things present such as dishwasher tablets, kitchen roll, kitchen towel, toilet paper, etc.

Perfect spot for relaxation

A lovely characterful, rustic property in a beautiful location, close to a historic and pretty village. The village had good facilities and was well placed to explore the surrounding area, walking, cycling, visiting towns and villages and various chateaux. The host Katherine was very friendly, informative and kind and was helpful when we had some issues with the wifi. We had a relaxing ten days and the property location was delightful, by a river surrounded by beautiful countryside.

Charming old property in a beautiful and peaceful location.

Comfortable and well provisioned. Stayed cool during hot days. Would love to come back. Easy cycle ride into Montresor, lovely town with great boulangerie and handy mini supermarket. Fantastic area. Lovely hostess whose English was far better than our French. Only concern was poor WiFi, essential when holidaying with teenagers.

Beautiful location and great host

This is a super gite, set in the most peaceful surroundings. Well equipped, especially appreciated the outdoor seating and eating area. Easy walking distance of village with restaurant, bakery and Proxi supermarket. Katherine, the host, lives in the house next door but we never felt intruded upon. She was such a lovely host, giving us lots of suggestions on where to visit and eat.

Séjour reposant à la campagne

Très bon séjour dans un cadre très charmant, entouré de nature et à la fois proche du village à pied. La maison est bien équipée, on y trouve tout ce qu’il faut pour séjourner confortablement en famille avec des jeunes enfants. Il y a des petits commerces à proximité et aussi des jolies balades à faire aux environs. La situation est idéale pour visiter les châteaux, le zoo, les plus grandes villes ne sont pas très loin aussi (super centre aquatique à Loches) cette location convient bien si vous aimez le charme des vielles pierres et la nature et que vous souhaitez à la fois du confort et la proximité des commerces et sites touristiques.

Charme, fraîcheur, nature et calme à Montresor, très beau village de Touraine

Un très bon choix l’été pour visiter la région, et profiter d’un cadre bucolique à l’écart des routes fréquentées. La maison est ancienne et fraîche, avec une première très grande chambre. Il faut savoir que pour aller dans la 3ème chambre il faut passer par la 2ème. La propriétaire est très attentionnée, et Nelson est adorable !

Calme, nature et sérénité

Très belle location au calme absolu, dans un écrin de verdure, tout en étant proche des commerces et sites touristiques. On peut faire pas mal de choses à pied sans avoir à prendre la voiture (Montrésor, lac de Chemillé, canoë, vélo, forêt, vestiges romains ...). Ici le temps s'écoule plus lentement et qu'est-ce que ça fait du bien ! La location est impeccable, très bien équipée. Katherine Segalen est charmante et nous a chaleureusement accueillis. Nos filles ont aussi passé des heures à jouer avec Elton, toutou espiègle et attachant. Je recommande vivement cette location qui permet de déconnecter tout en passant de belles journées de visites.

Why they chose this property

La Ronde or l’Héronde, its ancient name, actually consists of 2 houses, one of which is rented out on a weekly basis. In the Middle Ages, la Ronde, is by a small river, was first a mill and then a tannery.
La Ronde was beautifully restored by artisans from our region, which use local stones/ building material and traditional techniques. We strived to restore the houses in such a way as to preserve the original layout and architecture of the houses. We do our best to protect the surrounding nature and wildlife. If you’re lucky you may spot a number of birds and maybe a few deer and boars…
