About this property

Stunning home in the beautiful village of Montsoreau in the Loire Valley. 4 star

Newly restored, this lovely home is located in the village of Montsoreau which is labelled 'one of the most beautiful villages in France'. The house is on three levels with a double en-suite bedroom on the first floor and another en-suite bedroom on the 2nd floor.
There is a large salon with dining area, which leads onto the kitchen. Large doors open onto a small walled courtyard, which is a lovely spot to take your morning breakfast with croissants from one of the best bakeries in the area, just a few minutes walk from Le Seize.
The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need to rustle up a gourmet meal with local ingredients found in the weekly Sunday market. Alternatively, you could try one of the may restaurants in the village minutes away from Le Seize. The village is located on the Loire river where you take a boat trip, go fishing, kayaking, there is even a beach close by for sunbathing. Plenty of places to visit too, you will be spoilt for choice! Saumur is a 15 minute drive with its restaurants, bars and boutiques for a little bit of window shopping. Many famous Chateaux to visit close by. And of course if you like wine this is the best region to enjoy a day or two wine tasting at the many vineyards in the area and to visit the famous sparkling wine houses of Ackerman, Bouvet - Ladubay, Gratien Meyer, Veuve Amiot to name but a few. If you visit the wine cellars of Ackerman as well as wine tasting, don't forget to visit the caves and enjoy the art installations as you wind yourself around the interior of the caves. Close to the medieval town of Chinon, take the opportunity to visit the Thursday morning market and enjoy a glass of wine on the square and watch the world go by.
Welcome gift awaits you with locally produced wine and local produce.

Great Stay in Lovely Montsoreau
My husband and I spent 6 days in Le Seize in late October/early November. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. The village of Montsoreau is lovely and well equipped with stores and restaurants. Montsoreau’s location was perfect for day trips to various chateaux and wineries. Le Seize is an excellent home away from home- it is very cozy, quiet and comfortable. Glyn and John have thought of everything!

Quiet Haven
We were a group of four adults who would have been perfectly happy to spend a month at this wonderful property in Montsoreau. The house was spotless and the town the same way. We would be happy to return and highly recommend this property Jim

Village wonderland
A marvelous, totally restored Village house, well worthy of its four star accommodation rating from France hotel rating services. Wonderfully decorated, loved the towels, the bedding, the comfort, the coziness! The owner’s love of their property is obvious from the moment you open the door and explore this wonderful home!

About the host

Hosted by Glyn Ward

Host profile image
Hi, we are John and Glyn, we have been in France now for 24 years. We previously had a bed and breakfast and a holiday rental cottage just south of our new property which we successfully run for 12 years. Which earned us high ratings on TripAdvisor and Booking.

Why they chose this property

We wanted to move to a different area and find a smaller property, our previous one was huge! We were lucky to find the house in Montsoreau as it is a much sought after village. It needed a lot of work as everything needed attention. We are very pleased with the result, as it is absolutely charming and in a great location. It works very well for holiday makers, everything is on your doorstep. Great eating places and bars plus all commerce for general everyday living. You really don't need a car, its just perfect!
We live 5kms away in Fontevraud l'Abbaye which is another lovely village and tourist destination. So we are on hand should our guests need us. We know the area very well and can offer good advice on places to visit, of which are many.

What makes this property unique

Located in the very charming village next to the river Loire. Walking distance to another charming village Candes - St - Martin. Lots to see and do. Restaurants and bars on the doorstep, plus a butchers, a bakers, a deli, a small supperet,(small super market) wine cave, wine shop, a spa, tennis courts. Seriously, no need for a car for that relaxing stress free vacation!
