The Chateau exceeded expectations in comfort, facilities and location. The Royal Cite was a special place and Loches village was lovely and only a couple of minutes walk away. As we were staying there over Christmas the hosts thoughtfully provided a tree and decorations for us. It was a pleasant and relaxing stay.

Incredible stay again
As beautiful as we remembered. The house is stunning, spotlessly clean and perfectly located. We didn't want to leave! Satya, the local contact is always available and nothing is ever too much trouble. Excellent communication throughout.

Incroyable!!
We were a group of 6 women from the US who had the great fortune of finding this house. Everything about the house is magnificent - the setting, the gardens, the multiple options for enjoying the outdoors as a group, or spending alone time. The house is so spacious and just perfect for 6 people. The kitchen is very well equipped and we enjoyed several meals at both the kitchen table and the more formal dining room. The house is beautifully decorated, retaining much of its original style and charm. We enjoyed the relative quiet of the Cite Royale, but also the easy proximity to the Centre Ville. However, there was one major problem with the house, we didn't want to leave! We could have enjoyed spending 6 months in the Palais D'Or.

Amazing house and responsive hosts
I stayed here with a group of 8 friends for 6 days over New Year's. The house was just as described with fun details and background (used to house the king's mistress)! Very spacious, walking distance to shops/restaurants, and very responsive hosts. They were able to stock our fridge before arrival which was very convenient and helpful! Highly recommend!

Simply perfect
I can't express how amazing this break was. We are a couple with a whippet (yes the property was probably too big for us!) But we absolutely loved our break. Satya is incredible, the house was spotless, as if no one had ever stayed before, everything worked and it was brilliantly stocked with every cooking utensil, equipment and cutlery etc you could ever need.
The house is perfectly located and is obviously a loved home from home, not simply a business asset. Loches is a gorgeous little town with everything you need. The fact we didn't need to drive anywhere was a welcome bonus especially as we had driven from the UK (also the tiny walled city roads are ok when you get used to them but a bit nerve-wracking when you first arrive in a Range Rover!). The property is super secure and the views are incredible, the garden is perfect for a dog, he loved playing out there!
We will always have amazing memories of this place and will definitely be coming back!
Thankyou!

Beautiful place
This was an outstanding place in a great location. Loches is a beautiful city and it's in the fortified old part of town. Lots of history and close to all of the area attractions including wine tasting, castles and the Beauval ZooParc. The house was comfortable and very large.

Luxury in the royal city
Wonderful old Villa with spectacular views right in the middle of the cite royale. Don't miss the table tennis deep down in the caves! Thank you Amanda, Satya and Craig!
