Description from owner

Description

Enjoy life as the French locals lived it 100 years ago at our furnished 18th century townhouse in the small village of Pontlevoy in the Loire Valley. It is close to all the historic chateau of the Loire, such as Chenonceau (the chateau that was built over the river Cher), Amboise (where Da Vinci lived the last years of his life), Blois, (a true Renaissance chateau), and many, many more. It is near Roman ruins, the fortress of Richard the Lion-hearted, surrounded by wine tasting vineyards that boast excellent local wines and great cycling routes throughout the region.

The 2-story house is charmingly furnished with Spanish and French antiques, has upstairs bath and downstairs W/C under the stairs, large loft bedroom with queen-size bed and child's daybed, and living room and sizable kitchen down stairs. It has a garden, and big backyard beyond. There are local shops such as a bakery for daily croissants and baguettes, cafes, and a supermarche all within walking distance. There is a 14th Cent. Abbey at the center of town which hosts music festivals in the summer and also provides regular tours of the buildings and grounds. The village itself was built on Roman ruins and has canals running through out the center of town where the monks used to bring the crops to the Abbey on small barges. It is truly a fascinating place in and of itself!!

The town of Pontlevoy is approx two hours south of Paris either by train or car, and lends itself well as a base camp for daily excursions for all the historical sights that this region has to experience as well as fine dining everywhere.

This place is in a small village near Montrichaud and easy access to Loire Valley sites. We had a rental car; I think it would have been difficult to explore the area without it. The cottage is par… More
