Perfect home base for all the sights we wanted to see in Amboise, and such an easy, pleasant walk into town to restaurants, the chateau, and Clos de Luce. The lodge had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and the grocery store across the street is so convenient.
Very good location for the town and markets. House was very comfortable and grateful for the fans due to the heat. Lots to do in the area and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for the welcome gifts!
A great place to cycle from. Convenient for walk into Amboise and shop opposite. The owner was lovely and we appreciated the welcome gift. Lovely viewpf the river.
A perfectly place house with a large garden and off-road parking. Very near to the center of Amboise allowing us to walk to the town very easily. Three large bedrooms (two King doubles and a twin) with three bathrooms. Cosy kichen/diner and lounge. Free wifi was a great help as well as UK TV channels. Very helpful host too.
We’re so pleased we stayed at Jean Loïc’s lovely country house. Amazing views of the Loire from the upstairs bedroom, 5 minutes walk to a wonderful boulangerie, 10 minutes to the centre along the river. Spacious, clean, well equipped and a very friendly and personable host too! Easy and enjoyable drives to some of the best chateaux in the area. Leonardo DVs house was a particular delight. Highly recommended.

Merci Steve, it was a pleasure to welcome you and family!
Well appointed and a great location just out of town centre. On the main road but slightly set back so quiet. A great place to explore Amboise and the Loire from, we cycled everywhere. Off road private parking and secure bicycle storage.
As mentioned the peaches in the garden a delicious bonus. Intend to return to Loire to continue exploration and this property is top of list for next booking.

Merci Peter. It was a pleasure to welcome you and family.
Well appointed 3 bed, 3 bathroom property within a 10 to 15 minute walk of the centre of Amboise. Nice lounge and very well equipped kitchen overlooking a beautiful garden area with gazebo, table/chairs, loungers and plentiful off street parking. The Loire river is at the back and is a lovely view from the back bedroom. It was very hot when we went so I guess the only thing missing is aircon which it would certainly have benefitted from (been told not too many french properties have it though). The owner, Jean-Loic, is an extremely friendly & helpful guy who gave us ideas of what to do in the area. Great Boulangerie 5 minutes away which sold amazing pastries and a Netto across the road for groceries & cheapish petrol. Could do far worse than this lovely property in an ideal location.
This is an ideal location, walking distance to Chateau D'Amboise, the Friday/Sunday markets and the other main sights of Amboise. Across the road from a good sized supermarket and a gym. The kitchen was well appointed, the bedrooms were spacious with drawers and hanging space available in each. The view of the Loire was wonderful and the garden had the added bonus of fresh peaches! (September)It was great to have a washing machine, dryer and airer. Lots of cleaning products were available to use. Our only negative was the WiFi was a bit sketchy, especially when upstairs. I ended up turning off my access to it and using mobile data as it did say no internet available quite a few times.
We were initially worried about parking outside, but Jean reassured us it would be ok. The house was immaculate, lovely big comfy beds and everything you could need in the kitchen (not that we did much cooking) Garden was a real haven. Walk into the town was longer than we expected, but we are in our 70’s so took our time and got used to it. Shop over the road proved very useful and I think the boulangerie at the end of the road sells the best croissants in the world!! Highly recommend if you are going to stay in Amboise.
Si vous voulez visiter les châteaux de la Loire, alors ne cherchez plus, cette maison est très bien située.
A 10 min à pied du château d'Amboise, 15 min pour le Clos Lucé, pour les autres châteaux compter 30 a 40 min en voiture.
Possibilité de faire de belles balades à pied ou en vélo, le long de la Loire.
Concernant les commerces de proximité, il y a tout ce qu'il faut pour faire ses courses à pieds.
Une bonne boulangerie au bout de la rue, un supermarché juste en face.
La maison est très bien équipée, comme si nous étions à la maison, un très bon wifi.
Mr Le Net est hyper sympa, un grand merci pour le cadeau de bienvenue.
Nous y retournerons avec grand plaisir.
Je commence par le moins bien, la météo exécrable mais notre hôte n'y est pour rien bien sûr. Gîte sympa. Ns avons apprécié que chaque chambre soit dotée de sdb. Pour nos visites des châteaux et autres, extrêmement bien placé. Hôte charmant. A recommander.
Nous avons passé un très bon séjour, proche des commerces, du centre et de la piste de cyclable, ce qui nous a permis de ne pas prendre la voiture pendant toute la semaine.

Merci beaucoup pour votre feed-back. ça a été vraiment un plaisir de vous accueillir, vous et votre famille, dans notre gîte à Amboise sur les bords de Loire.
Eine tolle Wohnung mit einem sehr freundlichen Gastgeber
Die Wohnung ist gut eingerichtet und einem Top Zustand (besonders die Badezimmer). Die Lage am Fluss ist toll, man hört allerdings die Straße vor der Haustür (deshalb nur 4 Sterne).
Jean-Loic ist ein sehr freundlicher und aufmerksamer Gastgeber. Vielen Dank für eine entspannte Woche an der Loire.
First class household kit with everything you would want in near mint condition. House has a lovely garden for evening drinks/ supper and just a 5 min stroll into centre of town. Great bakery near by and a small grocery shop almost opposite. Jean-Loic popped by to ensure all OK
The property is on the banks of the Loire with easy access on foot to the town of Amboise. There is parking on site and a small supermarket is only across the road. The property was very well equipped with everything you might need cooking- wise though we ate out most nights or had a barbecue. The slightly wild garden full of nesting birds was a delight. We caught the train to Tours and drove to Blois, Villandry, Azay Le Rideau all within easy distance. Good birdwatching along the Loire - teens and a cuckoo were particular delights.
This property was ideal for cycling along the Loire and visiting other towns and the Aquarium. It was also very conveniently located for walking into the town. Jean-Loïc recommended several places to visit and restaurants to eat at. He left macarons from Bigou (the best Salon du Thè) and champagne. The garden was a pleasure to sit in when too hot to go out and the view from the upstairs bedroom over the Loire was amazing. We would definitely recommend this property.

Excellent séjour
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour à Amboise. Le gîte est bien placé, proche du centre ville. Le marché est à 5 minutes à pied. Il est assez grand et bien équipé. Le jardin est très agréable.
Nous avons également apprécié la vue sur la Loire et les décollages de montgolfières.
Le propriétaire est charmant. Nous le remercions pour ses attentions.

Perfect location for visiting the chateaux of the Loire and the town of Amboise!
Jean-Loic was most hospitable. Wonderful house and garden area. Grocery just across the street. We enjoyed our 6-night stay.

Handy House for Exploring Amboise and near to most facilities.
We had a very enjoyable stay here on the outskirts of Amboise. As other visitors have said it is very handy to have Netto over the road, a Boulangerie about 5 minutes away and the Market almost at the end of the garden twice a week.
We enjoyed walking by the river into Town and to the Da Vinci house and exhibition. The Restaurant Manureva down the street was good value and quality for lunch and dinner.
Jen-Loic took great care to make sure we had arrived safely and went to the trouble of delivering a kettle for the English to make tea. We particularly liked using the outdoor covered seating area for meals and relaxing in the garden on the recliners.
The equipment and features in the house left us with nothing to comment on. Everything you could want in white goods and kitchen equipment is there.
For cyclists the Loire Route is at the end of the garden and we used it to walk to the next village as well as into town by the river.

Good position
Well-equipped and comfortable cottage. The three ensuites were a bonus - not often we have found that with French properties. Good garden with table and chairs for outside eating. We were fortunate to hit a beautiful spell of weather and had all our meals in the garden. There is a good deal to see in Amboise and the property is close enough to the town to walk in. It's even closer to the market which consisted of a large one on Sunday and a smaller local type one on Friday. Both were good but we thought the Friday one was one of the best we have found in France. Good supermarket just across the road was a real boon. There is also an excellent Boulangerie just along the road.

Great holiday home near to town
Great holiday home with a real French feel, a short walk to the local town and a weekend market just round the corner. Also very close to a swimming pool for the children. The house has all the French charm and all you will need for a great holiday.
