The Loire Valley / Loir-et-Cher region


The Val de Cher is famous for the chateaux - lovely castles built from the local white stone in our village Bourre. Visit Chenonceaux just along the river, also Chambord, Amboise, Azay le Rideau, Villandry and many more lovely historic buildings.
Our region is also famous for the wines, sauvignon, gamay and carbernet franc. The most famous local wine is Vouvray made from Chenin Blanc and Chinon from Cabernet France. We are only two hours by Autoroute from Sancerre.
This is an all the year round location. Summers are hot (around 25-30) and winters cold (can be below zero - but enjoy our log fire and the local cheese and wine).
The Montrichard / Bourre area
Montrichard is a busy little market town with all the facilities you require, a market on Fridays, good restaurants and good supermarkets.
Bourre is a small village with a bar, butcher, grocer and baker and a pharmacy. We are almost on the river and you will enjoy walks along the tow path as well as walks in the woods of Montrichard which are close by.

Maison la Grange is situated a short walk from the centre of Bourré. The cottage kitchen is well equipped and I can strongly recommend eating dinner on the patio looking across the valley of the Cher along which the village of Bourré is built. The view is stunning! Bourré is a 15 minute cycle ride from Montrichard which has some wonderful cafés and restaurants. There are many Chateaux and Caves to visit in the area including the famous Chenonceaux which is a short drive away. |

Excellent location for touring visitor attractions in the Loire, quiet and remote feeling yet close to good roads. Very well equipped, we wanted for nothing in the kitchen and laundry departments. The property is very characterful. Nearby Montrichard is a good little holiday town if you want a day off driving - you can cycle using the bikes in the mushroom shed or it's 5 mins in the car. |

We had another lovely week in the Loire Valley, I am sure that we be back again next year.
Jarvis – Oxford August 2011
Thank you very much for letting us stay in Mason La Grange in bourre last week. We had a super week. The cottage is great and in a lovely location. It is really well kitted out and we loved sitting out on the terrace. We also enjoyed using the bikes, cycling along the river both to Montrichard and Thesee. Thanks again.
Brewster – Harrogate
We had a very enjoyable stay , thoroughly enjoying the accommodation and the area.
We would like to thank you for the lovely week in your cottage in Bourré. It was very comfortable and well equipped and so well positioned to visit such lovely places. Saw beautiful chateaus and lovely countryside. Drunk too much vin and ate too much from the Boulangerie and Patisserie. A recipe for a wonderful holiday. Ann and Jeff
Just got back yesterday from our week in Bourre and wanted to say a big thank you for a great week. The cottage was perfect, exactly what we wanted and so nicely renovated and kitted out. Alex
We had a delightful holiday in Bourré and Paris, the weather was very kind to us. It would be very easy to get used to the pace of life. The cottage was beautifully kitted out, it was a real home from home. The peace and quiet was wonderful after the hustle and bustle of Paris. We will certainly tell any of our friends who are thinking of a holiday in the Loire about your lovely cottages. Many thanks. Anne and Clifford.
I thoroughly enjoyed the cottage..in such a beautiful situation with so many interesting places to visit and it was very convenient to reach by Eurostar / TGV with a car hire from St. Pierre. It was the comfort and situation of the cottage that was a key factor in the enjoyment of the holiday. Richard
We absolutely loved your cottage and totally over ate at the local pastry shop and enjoyed goodies for breakfast every morning. We biked, walked and drove to everything we could possibly get to and our favourite dinner was at the Hotel De L'Ecole - absolutely divine. We also loved cooking local produce in your marvellous kitchen. We would love to come back and perhaps stay at one of your cottages at Vrigny - we are saving already! Many thanks for a wonderful stay in your cottage. Lesney and Alan
