Très agréable séjour

Nous avons passé un très agréable séjour dans ce gîte à la campagne. C'est une maison ancienne qui est bien équipée, son charme nous a beaucoup plu et sa situation est parfaite pour visiter les châteaux et faire des promenades au bord du cher. Marie-Pierre et gilles nous ont très bien accueillis, nous reviendrons avec plaisir aux beaux jours.

Un agréable weekend

Nous avons passés un agréable séjour. Le village de Bléré est plaisant et nous avons apprécié le chateau de Nitray et la balade au bord du Cher. L'escalier est certes escarpé mais les chambres à l'étage sont spacieuses. Le logement est bien équipé et nous avons eu la chance de pouvoir profiter de l'extérieur car il faisait beau.

Maison "dans son jus"

Après une semaine passée dans cette location, très surprise de la note élevée de ce gîte. Maison bien située pour visiter les châteaux de la Loire. En revanche, elle est "dans son jus" aucun investissement pour que les locataires se sentent bien. La maison dispose du minimum de confort pour accueillir : canapé et lits anciens inconfortables, lave vaisselle qui ne semble pas répondre aux normes et donne des décharges électriques, moisissures dans la salle de bain, peu adapté aux enfants en bas âge.
