We enjoy visiting this area in the late part of autumn. The rain or drizzle or cool days are offset by a wonderful wood-burning fireplace at night. You will enjoy the hospitality of your hosts as you cuddle inside a very beautiful home. We will return again.

Absolut empfehlenswert

Wir haben schon etliche Häuser in Frankreich gemietet. Das Haus von Glyn und John gehört zu den besten. Alles klappte hervorragend. Das Haus ist sehr gemütlich eingerichtet mit modernem Charme. Ein richtiges Zuhause! Zum Willkommen stand ein Korb mit Produkten aus der Gegend parat. Die Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet. Den Innenhof konnten wir leider wegen des Wetters nicht so häufig benutzen. Aber die Polstergruppe im Wohnzimmer hat uns dafür entschädigt. Die geräumigen Schlafzimmer haben beide ein Ensuite-Badezimmer. Im Zwischenstock hat es einen kleinen Wirtschaftsraum mit Waschmaschine und allem Putzmaterial. Alles war SEHR saubet. Sogar der Grill blitzte. Nach einer Woche hat Glyn die Betten neu bezogen und alle Bade-.und Küchentücher ersetzt. Auch das Parkieren beim Château war kein Problem. Wir fanden immer einen Parkplatz. Das Haus liegt ideal. Wir haben jeden Tag in der Umgebung Neues entdecken können. Wir würden mehr als 10 Punkte geben, wenn das möglich wäre. Wir können das Haus nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen.

Beautiful rental

This was our third stay at Le Seize, which is a cosy, comfortable house & it was as good as we remembered. Montsoreau is a lovely spot with an excellent market, butcher and boulangerie/patisserie. There are lots of chateaux, castles and towns within easy reach, or you can just enjoy the shaded courtyard. We had no difficulty in parking our car in the car park by the chateau, a few minutes walk from the house and were able to stop briefly outside for unloading/loading. Highly recommended!

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!

Lovely cottage, great location

On a quiet street minutes from the Loire with 2 village cafes, 6 restaurants, patisserie, etc. and the local chateau within a 10 minute walk. Village is a hidden gem itself close to much of interest yet not overrun (we spent 3 weeks in June). Cottage ground floor has a spacious sitting/dinning room, a modern, compact, kitchen well equipped for short stays, with big pocket doors leading to a small walled terrace with dining and seating, herbs and flowers. Great place for morning coffee and aperitifs. First and second floors each has a spacious and comfortable bedroom suite. It is a sympathetically restored and modernized cottage, tastefully decorated. Easy parking 5 mins away at the Chateau lot along the river. Delightful hosts. Highly recommend.

Adorable home in picturesque village

This house was perfect for 2 couples traveling together with both bedrooms having en-suite bathrooms. We loved the private outdoor patio/eating area with the glass doors opening off the kitchen. We cooked breakfast each morning and made some “French” dishes from produce & meats purchased from local markets. We loved this area of France with a great bakery in town and with many nearby beautiful villages, chateaus & castles. Glyn & John were the most helpful hosts, even making dinner suggestions and reservations for us. We would definitely stay here again if we return to this area.

Lovely, quiet house in Montsoreau

We had a lovely week at this house in Montsoreau, which is ideally located for visiting various towns and chateaux in the Loire valley. Prior to arrival, Glyn was very helpful in answering my questions. The house itself was very clean, beautifully decorated and well-equipped. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and whilst the outside space is limited, the little courtyard was well-presented and ideal for eating outside. It's hard to find any fault with this lovely property - the only downside for us was the lack of off-street parking (we knew this before we arrived) and the garden canopy which, whilst it gives privacy, also blocks out the sun!

The house was beautifully furnished and had everything you might need. It’s in a good position in the village for an easy walk to the bars and restaurants. Although you can’t park directly outside the property apart from dropping bags (the road is quite narrow) we always found somewhere to park a couple of minutes away. I’d definitely recommend this property for a relaxing stay.

Great house and location. Tight in the middle of a nice village in the Loire.

As per the title. The house is great. Feels really “solid” and tastefully decorated. B straightforward - no deposits or cleaning fees etc so really easy. Reason for 4 stars was that during our stay, much of the village was closed due to long term road and (I think) drainage works. So our experience different from how it would be in the summer when they are finished. But I’d definitely come again which is the main thing.
