Een heerlijke vakantie
Prachtige huizen, comfortabel en met smaak ingericht.
Gelegen in de grote tuin van een kasteel, omgeven met een oude muur die niet het uitzicht ontneemt. Gastvrij ontvangen door de eigenaar, die zeer behulpzaam is. Chinon is een oud en typisch Frans stadje met zijn historie, oude pleinen en winkeltjes
