Find rentals with pool near Clos Lucé Castle

We visited chateaux east of Amboise and this was the perfect base. We were exhausted at the end of each day so accommodation in town would be a waste and parking a hassle. This farm house was very convenient to main road but quiet and the couple who own it are perfect.

We had a great stay. The accommodation is a short drive to many Loire Valley towns, attractions, and shops. There’s a small grocery store 2kms away in Monteaux selling local produce, including baguettes, vegetables, cold meats and wine. The Chateau du Chaumont is just across the Loire River. Great markets in Amboise and Leonardo da Vinci’s residence at Chateau du Clos Lucé is must with children - an exciting educational and immersive experience . It is evident a lot of thought has gone into furnishing the house and ensuring it’s very well equipped and comfortable. The children loved playing in the large garden, jumping on the trampoline and swimming in the pool, and of course playing with the very friendly cat, Pirouette! Friendly and helpful hosts. Definitely recommend!

Le Clos de Venise is an exceptional property. The house is beautiful, extremely comfortable and equipped with everything you might need for your stay. We enjoyed every minute of our week there. The setting in the vineyard is superb. Note that the resident sheep is very friendly and likes to have a pat when you pass by on your way to buy the breakfast croissants at the little village epicerie. Claude and Francine are wonderful hosts – the nicest couple, friendly, informative about the region and its history, interesting to have a chat with and extremely generous with their wonderful wine, fresh produce from their vegetable garden and home-made jam, all greatly appreciated and devoured. Thank you to you both. We will look back on our stay at Le Clos de Venise with very warm memories and we hope to return in the not too distant future.
