From the owner

This large property, in the centre of the original small walled town, retaining many original features, is entered through the 12ft oak doors facing onto the historical Place du Marche. It is divided into two houses connected by a central corridor. The Front House is not rented out and is kept locked when we are not in residence.

The renovated 4 bedroom, 3 bathrooms, Garden House (pictured above), with all rooms overlooking the secluded, quiet, walled garden is the house offered for holiday rentals. This is entered from the wisteria- shaded, open air, central courtyard with outdoor furniture and Webber BBQ.

Although our house sleeps 10 we only accept a maximum of 6 +baby.

The house is suitable for families, child and toddler friendly, with the the owners baby/children equipment available if required. (free of charge). The garden is completely enclosed and a great place to relax with your children, or pets (which are allowed on request.) There is a large patio with seating for 8 and a built in splash pool. Cycling is very popular in the Loire and there are many Off Road cycle tracks, including the newly built route from Richelieu to Chinon.

Bikes can be hired locally. If taking your own our courtyard has a large secure covered area.

There is no need to drive anywhere!

All the facilities of a small town are just a short walk. No problems with parking either! This is free outside the house and all around the Square. Bring the grandparents too they will love it.

The 1000 acre Park, just two minutes walk, has outdoor swimming pool and children's paddling play area(summer only), tennis, play areas, mini zoo and it is great for walking and cycling. There are many exciting things to do and visit for day trips. Futuroscope, Puy du Fou, leisure parks with water-sports, lake-beaches and golf courses are all within a short drive. Many of the famous Chateaux and Historical towns of Chinon, Saumur, Tours and Poitiers are also just a short drive from Richelieu (itself a famous historical town) and these outings can be combined with tours of local vineyards including the Champagne(method). There are weekly local markets, fetes and outdoor activities in the area and full details of these can be found on the Richelieu town website or in the tourist office adjacent to our house.

Free WIFI is also available for those who need to keep in touch with work or home! Please feel free to email or phone for answers to any queries or request further details. Short stays may be possible out of high season.

Interaction with guest

My French Manager and Cleaner lives in Richelieu and manages my property. They welcome you with keys, at the agreed check in time, and are available to answer any questions. If a convenient check in time cannot be agreed due to time of arrival you will be given a key code to a box on the front door so that you can access the house. They also take care of my maintenance so if any 'breakdowns' they can be contacted to deal with any problem. There are two house books. One gives details of appliances/ rubbish collections etc. The other has full information of local interests. Our house is also adjacent to the Tourist Office.
