Superbly renovated maison within an old French village.
We spent five weeks in France travelling from Strasbourg through Burgundy and along the Loire, finishing in Montreuil-Bellay. While other accommodations were excellent, this one was superb. The house was set very close to the chateau ramparts, so was in the heart of the village. The view was breathtaking. This was why I came to France. For the history. The renovations were in keeping with the history of the house with upmarket furnishings and fittings. It was a pleasure to come home after "chateau-ing" to relax in the garden or to visit the local tavern (an absolute must). Communication with our hosts was the best we have encountered in the 35 years we have been travelling in Europe. Steph and John were waiting to meet us, explain all functionalities and give advice on the best local chateaus to visit, along with local town markets which had the best produce and other stalls. Fantastic. Cannot recommend this place highly enough.

A perfect choice for two couples
This little house nestled against the chateau in the centre of Montreuil-Bellay was a great choice for us. The decor is beautiful inside and out, the beds were incredibly comfortable, the showers excellent, the kitchen very well-equipped for actually cooking and the barbecue worked well. Even though there was a heatwave we were still comfortable due to the thick walls and fans. Our only problem was with the washing machine and I expect that has been remedied by now. Although there is no parking on site we were able to unload right outside and always found two free parking spots right around the corner. Although M-B is at the western end of the Loire Valley and not close to the majority of the chateaux it was a great location for exploring. We visited Chenonceau at one end and went to Puy du Fou at the other. Don't miss Puy du Fou, it's not a theme park just for kids, it was one of the highlights of our three months in France. The only reason that you might choose to stay elsewhere is if you really wanted to see lots of chateaux, but one or two is plenty for most of us and we were definitely pleased that we chose this lovely spot.

Wonderful property in ideal location
Absolutely excellent property with everything thought of and included in the property. Will definitely be recommending to anyone contemplating a visit to this area Initial photos and headlines don't do it justice. The location was first class and so convenient for everything. Montrieuil Bellay is fantastic. The chateau is so special.

Beautiful property in the centre of Montreuil Bellay.
Really enjoyed our stay. So nice being able to walk up to the bakery for morning pastries and to walk to restaurants for meals. The home is thoughtfully and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed meals on the terrace and had exceptionally hot weather, so the fans were a god send! Found new places to explore in the area. Stef and John were excellent hosts, communicating well at all times. Thank you! Gareth and Jill
