The Cottage, La Coyere
About the home
Originally a farmworkers cottage, now refurbished to a high standard. Enter through a stable door into the kitchen/diner, with a woodburner stove set in the original stone fireplace. Solid oak kitchen units, dresser and dining room table with leather chairs lends a touch of luxury to the well equipped kitchen. Next door is the living room with stairs up to the stunning king size bedroom with cathedral vaulted ceiling. The twin bedroom leads off the living room and the bathroom is off the kitchen/diner.
A 5 minute drive takes you to our local market town of Noyant, with excellent amenities. Saumur, a lively town on the banks of the Loire is less than half an hour away, offering boutique style shops, a large Saturday market and many bars, restaurants and a grand Chateau. This part of the Loire Valley has much to offer for everyone, probably best known for its wine production, Chateaux and golf. Book a Wine tasting tour with us to explore some exceptional vineyards in the area and taste their wines without the worry of drinking and driving.

The cottage was very clean and tidy and well equiped. The beds were very comfortable and the hosts (Claire and John) were very helpful and friendly. Meals can be booked for day of arrival and on request and Claires cooking was fabulous! We enjoyed the meal with Claire and John and the other guests staying at the adjoining gite. We had a great relaxing week, just what the doctor ordered! :) |

Our second trip to Le Coyere after a wonderful two weeks last year. This time my parents came along and stayed in the Gite next door. While the weather wasn't brilliant (by high French standards), the holiday was otherwise everything we had hoped for. The accomodation is first class with everything you need. The location is very central for wine, historic, leisure and just fun trips out for the family. Walking is very easy from Le Coyere. The owners Claire and John are suitably attentive but also sensitive to a desire for privacy. And Jack (the resident cocker spaniel) is just a wonderful addition; he's quiet, well behaved and a true character. |
