About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Castle life at Saint-Benoît-la-Forêt

Seize the opportunity to stay in a place steeped in history and charm. A majestic building constructed in 1826, this former wing of the château, still inhabited today, is sure to win you over.
Ideal for seven people, you'll find every comfort for your stay with friends or family.
Bought in ruins a few years ago, the building has been almost entirely renovated.
On the first floor, you'll find a large living room with armchairs and sofa, a decorative period fireplace, and a buffet from the house's own century. There's also a dining room with a large table for guests. The fully-equipped kitchen follows (induction hob, hood, toaster, kettle, Senseo coffee maker, oven, microwave, dishwasher, large-capacity fridge + freezer section). A washing machine is also available in the laundry room.
On the first floor, you'll also find a fully renovated shower room with toilet (walk-in shower).
On the first floor, you'll find a shower room, as well as a large bedroom with a decorative fireplace, and a bedroom with a single bed.
The second floor features two double bedrooms and a toilet.

And let's not forget the garden, entirely private, where you can enjoy family meals in harmony with nature.

All the ingredients are here to make your stay a princely one, just a short drive from Azay le Rideau, Saint Benoit la Forêt and Chinon.

Then set off on an adventure to discover the various châteaux of the Loire Valley, and conquer the local vineyards!

All linen is provided (bed linen + towels + tea towel). Beds and cleaning will be done on arrival. We've thought of everything for you.

There's no WIFI in the house, so you're guaranteed a friendly, country atmosphere.

To get to the house, you'll have to take the car and our country roads :)
Take the path just before the 2 stone lions, and go to the end of the path to discover the magic hidden behind the trees.

I am available to talk with travelers

The locality is unfailingly tranquil. You'll still be surrounded by the chatelaine and a few other neighbors, but the surroundings are restful and very quiet.
Located 13 minutes by car from Chinon and Azay le Rideau, and 22 minutes from Langeais, the house is perfectly situated on the route to the chateaux of the Loire Valley.
You'll also find plenty of troglodyte dwellings and even villages to visit along the way! (La Vallée Troglodytique des Goupillières is just 20 minutes away).
Numerous wineries and tastings of all kinds await you on our Touraine roads (Chinon, Vouvray, Saint Nicolas de Bourgeuil, Montlouis, etc.).
For children, there's an acrobranche course at Saint Benoit Aventure (3 minutes' drive from the house).

There's something for everyone in Touraine!

To get to the house, you'll have to take the car and our country roads :)
