Great location for cycling along the Loire both ways.

Lovely cottage in beautiful quiet surroundings
We thoroughly enjoyed our week in the cottage at Domaine de Joreau. Petra made us very welcome and we found the cottage comfortable and well equipped. We particularly liked the location being near to the cycle route along the Loire, which made it easy for us to use our bikes rather than the car.
The Children loved the Donkeys, Tarku and Caribou.
We were delighted to see deer in the garden and loved watching a pair of Golden Oriole in the top of the large fig tree.
Places we visited:
We cycled to the lovely town of Saumur and visited the Chateau.
We cycled to Angers which is well worth a visit, and took the train back to Les Loisiers, quite an adventure.
The Zoo at Doue la Fontaine is fabulous, we loved feeding the giraffes.
The Chateau at Breze was very interesting and the children loved the underground passages! We also visited Fontevraud Abbey which has an excellent IPad tour for children.
All in all a fabulous week and we can't wait to return another year to explore more of this beautiful area.

Peaceful, private and relaxing.
A great location for exploring the area with easy access to cycle paths along the river. Excellent bike hire is available in the village. The house is within easy reach of Saumur in one direction and Anger in the other. There is a quiet and private garden for relaxing and sampling the local wines after a day of sight seeing. The house is very comfortable and provides all the amenities for an enjoyable holiday. Petra and her son were wonderfully welcoming and helpful, from providing information about the area to freshly picked vegetables from the garden. A memorable part of our holiday in France.

Le gîte du domaine de Joreau est un petit paradis situé dans un vallon en bordure de forêt.Nous sommes tombés sous son charme dès notre arrivée. Nous avons été accueillis une première fois pas ces deux gardiens, Tarco et Caribou, deux ânes tout doux qui adorent croqués les carottes, nous confirmons.La beauté de ce lieu, sa sérénité et son calme, juste ponctués par la conversation des écureuils et leur haute voltige dans les peupliers, le hululement de la chouette hulotte et de la chevêche et de bien d’autres oiseaux nous ont ravi.C’est aussi le passage prisé des biches dans la prairie bordant la maison, quelle magnifique surprise de les voir si proche, petits êtres graciles, les anges de la forêt…Nous avons aussi beaucoup apprécié notre logis, fonctionnel, spacieux, agréable et confortable, rien ne manque.Ce petit écrin qu’il faut absolument découvrir ne serait pas ce qu’il est sans l’admirable travail de nos hôtes, leur gentillesse, leur sourire et leur disponibilité nous ont conquis.Un grand merci à vous pour se séjour inoubliable au domaine de Joreau.MiMi et Alain

Leuk huisje in stille omgeving
Het huisje was op zich o.k.en de ligging in het prachtige "park" was prima. De inrichting was aan de sobere kant en de tuinmeubelen waren erg oud en een stoel defect.De verstrekte onderhoudsmiddelen waren erg mager.In alle eerder gehuurde Vrbo huizen was dat veel ruimer.Amper kruiden specerijen en geen the en handdoeken. Hadden zelf gelukkig back up meegenomen.Trap naar boven niet gemakkelijk. Badkamer netjes en ruim. Prijs kwaliteit relatie niet goed. Needs a good update !!!

Gîte confortable avec excellente situation
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour dans ce gîte parfaitement équipé et au calme. La propriétaire est prévenante et sympathique. Excellente base pour découvrir les châteaux de la Loire (environ une dizaine de châteaux ouverts dans un rayon de 40 kms), l'abbaye de Fontevraud voire une escapade au Puy du fou (à une centaine de kms). A recommander aussi bien en été qu'en octobre, période de notre séjour.
