Historic town, historic maison!

It has been a privelege to stay in one of the oldest buildings in Chinon. Maison Rouge is truly medieval, but the owners have done a fantastic job in turning the apartment into a very liveable space with all modern conveniences. Staying here has been an amazing experience.
