"'In the shade of the Ginkgo' was fantastic. The apartment was clean, quiet, pretty and French and the hosts were extremely helpful and friendly. The garden was beautiful, even in early Spring and the location fantastic (very close to the railway station and tourist information). We could not ask for anything more. A great spot to explore the area's chateaus (tip: visit the Blois tourist office for cheap entry tickets and advice on public transport to the chateaus). We had a remarkable stay and will definately return when we can."

Great location

Stayed for the month of September 2023. Apartment is within easy walking distance to the train station and the old town. The hosts were very responsive. We enjoyed our stay very much using it as a base for touring the Loire Valley by train or car.

Wonderful apartment with great location in Tours!

My wife and I stayed at the apartment for the month of July 2023. Though we experienced travel delays, Claire made sure we were greeted and shown the apartment. The 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms worked well with us, as well as our guests that stayed with us. I especially liked the en-suite master bedroom with plenty of clothes storage. The kitchen was well stocked with staples and had very good appliances. It was also very handy having a clothes washer and separate clothes dryer in the apartment. The landscaping outside the apartment was also very nice, with several different sitting locations. The apartment is in an excellent location, just around the corner from the Travel Information center and the train station. There were several farmer's markets available in the area to pick up fresh produce, cheese, meat, bread, etc. Many good restaurants were also within walking distance. We were able to use the apartment as a base to tour surrounding areas, as well. All in all, we had an excellent stay and would recommend it with no reservations. Thank you, Claire!
