Family house in the Loire Valley châteaux and close to Beauval Zoo (the 4th most beautiful zoo in the world)
Your holidays in a family house, in the famous royal castles of la Loire area (2 hours south of Paris) ?
Our comfortable house is located in a residential and peaceful area, where you will find shops and services. The ground floor of our house is composed of a large living-dining room with a fireplace, a kitchen, a parental bedroom (large bed 160x200 and shower room). Upstairs, there are 4 bedrooms (2 double beds 140x200 and 2 single beds), a bathroom. In the basement, there is the garage, the laundry room and a workshop. We have 5 bicycles (adults and children), one is electric. Children will certainly be delighted to occupy themselves upstairs with our board games, Playmobils, guitare and the piano ... On the digital side, wifi and Netflix access will be at your disposal.
The garden with trampoline, goal post, is fully enclosed so perfect for families. You will probably enjoy garden furniture (table, 8 chairs and a deckchair), the barbecue, the plancha and the treehouse. During the morning, you will enjoy to observe and hear birds singing in our garden 😉.
Close to Blois town centre with excellent rail conection to Tours (30 mins), Orléans (30 mins) and Paris (2 hours). Easy access to motorways also.
Last summer, we've exchanged to Belgium. It was great ! We’ll happily consider all offers.
