Rustic Retreat

A very enjoyable family holiday, the house is very rustic and well inhabited but exhudes family homeliness. We especially enjoyed the outdoor activities, swimming, croquet, pétanque, table tennis, tennis, cycling. All the outdoor activities only added further to the enjoyment of our stay.

Perfect birthday gathering!

Superb location for friends and family to gather for a birthday party. Pool and tennis facilities were excellent and a plethora of games and space made for a great active week. The kitchen was well equipped and bedrooms spacious and well set up. A real homely space that created a sense of trust and relaxation. Our local hosts were on hand when we needed them and the surrounding area was easy to explore.

Overall great place to stay

June 2022: Spent a week in week here. Home was very nice. More-or-less matched the pictures. Only comment is that the pool could have been a little cleaner. Water was green-ish, not blue-ish. Overall great though. Nice and quiet and remote.

Loire Valley Week at La Chapelle

The location was great - quiet and remote. The house, La Chapelle, provided everything we needed for the week: plenty of space and facilities - swimming pool, tennis court, table tennis, bicycles etc. The four grandchildren loved the swimming pool and spent a huge amount of time playing in the water. The grounds to the house are extensive and well looked after with plenty of space for the children to run around and explore. The surrounding area is relatively flat so cycling is easy. The Loire valley is a wonderful area to visit which we know well having stayed before on several occasions. We had a really enjoyable week. We would recommend this property and may well return again in the future.

A lovely family holiday home

We were a family of 9 adults and there is no doubt it was a wonderful house for us all to stay in. Plenty of room, extremely comfortable, endless hot water, everything worked very well. Beds very comfortable, kitchen well equipped. The fruit trees were in full fruit and the garden was very well maintained. We used the pool a lot and the temperature was just right - it was slightly heated. We also played a lot of tennis - a lovely court. The information files the Campbells left on the sitting room table were full of very useful information, and good ideas. All in all a very happy week.

Paradise found

To my wife’s annoyance I am usually able to find something to dislike about a holiday home, but in the case of La Chapelle there is nothing to dislike. It is a beautifully restored timber framed barn, tastefully decorated and very well equipped (I have never stayed anywhere with a better equipped kitchen), set in gorgeous, huge grounds in a quiet, safe, pretty and tiny village close to the glorious chateaux of the Loire Valley. The owner is communicative and keen to ensure you have all the info you need before you arrive (but lives in a different country so isn’t on your doorstep) and the French caretakers - a retired couple who live at the far end of the little village - are charming and friendly (try their fresh eggs). 100% recommend - for families especially.

Beautifully maintained, renovated farmhouse in Loire Valley.

This farmhouse has been sympathetically renovated and is well maintained and managed by the attentive owners. The property itself is positioned in a rural location with the local villages (and boulangerie) easily accessible by the bicycles provided. The heated outdoor swimming pool was a good size and much appreciated. The tennis court was in excellent condition with balls and rackets provided. There were several outdoor seating options for mealtimes, with or without shade and the kitchen was well stocked with good quality crockery and cutlery. Overall, it was apparent how well the property was cared for and the information provided by the owner, Nigel, both written and spoken during an introductory phone call, was accurate and helpful. Further to a previous review, there were some houseflies noted, particularly during the hotter days, but no worse than that we have experienced in other properties we have stayed in in rural France and several measures were in place in the kitchen, in particular, to address the issue. We found this an excellent property for two families with a total of five children aged 10 and under and we are hopeful of staying again.

Beautiful cottage, quiet location, shame about the flies!

The cottage itself is beautiful, in a quiet rural location. It’s fully equipped with everything you can think of, although we did need to take towels from other bedrooms, as the double room we used only had 1 x bath towel and 1 x hand towel. Albert, the caretaker, came to greet us and gave us some fresh eggs, which were willingly devoured and were delicious. Being there during a heatwave meant full use of the pool, which is fabulous, although there was a fair bit of debris at the bottom. The tennis court is well maintained and of professional standard. We managed to make use of it once the evening cooled. Being picky, we felt the bathrooms needed a bit of tlc but were functional. We did have an issue with a toilet flush running continuously, but this became intermittent when we tried to fix it. Unfortunately we were unable to contact the caretaker but did inform the owners. The only thing that marred our stay was the swarms of flies. We think this was due to the heat but at times it was unbearable. Preparing food was a nightmare and we ended up having to constantly hoover up flies. Overall it is a fabulous place to stay, plenty of room and beautiful, well maintained gardens.

Real Rural France

Pretty much exactly as advertised. Gorgeous! Suzaan was very easy to communicate with and did her best to make our stay exactly what we anticipated; a wonderful family gathering involving swimming, tennis, cooking, cooking, cooking. Too much eating, outside, surrounded by beautiful gardens and miles of wheat, corn, barely and bean fields. The local markets gave us a good insight into the workings of this agricultural land. Virtually no English spoken there which is to our liking. This is an old, funky farm house in an agricultural district with no tourists in sight. During our 10 day visit with various family coming and going, we had a running joke that the modern conveniences "half worked." No matter for us. Albert and Genevieve, two neighbors who help caretake the property were around to guide us through and even stop by for a coffee with the dog. There are no screens on the windows, which is typical for rural France; typical for most of Europe. If you are afraid of bugs and want all the creature comforts of home this is not the place for you. It is also a little musty, and cool inside. The pool is great, the tennis court is beautiful, if old (it could use a new net and if you are serious about tennis bring your own racquet and balls), the kitchen is more than good enough for more than two cooks at once. Everyone loved it. If Provence isn't your thing, or in your price range, an experience here might be just the ticket.

We loved this house with its beautiful shutters and so many things to do.

This is not a classic holiday house.This is obviously a much loved home that has benefited for lots of love and much conversion. Its very rustic and quite basic in lots of ways and yet has everything you could possibly want. It has a beautiful garden with a swimming pool and tennis court.. It has 6 bikes to ride with the added advantage of kiddy seats to put on if you need.. It has a wonderful cupboard filled with games and toys.The kitchen has everything you would ever need.. Lots of places to eat both inside and out. We literally loved every minute.

Tolles Landhaus für große Familientreffen

Wir haben mit 11 Personen (6 Erwartet., 5 Kinder) eine sehr schöne Osterwoche in diesem tollen Haus verbracht. Es bietet allen Komfort, ist sehr geschmackvoll restauriert und eingerichtet, der alte Charme sehr schön erhalten. Die Kinder haben sogar im April täglich den Außenpool genossen. Der Garten ist riesig, im Haus gibt es von Küchenutensilien bis zu den Spielen und Sportutensilien (von Petanque bis Tennis!) alles, was man brauchen kann. Wir waren rundum zufrieden und kommen sehr gerne wieder!

Family Fun!

We were a group of 8 which included two generations (60’ somethings and 20 somethings). We had an amazing stay. The house is very spacious with great indoor and outdoor dining options and a nice kitchen to prepare meals. We enjoyed all the outdoor toys including crocket, badminton and tennis. (It was too cold to swim). The house is about 40 minutes to castles and wineries and we enjoyed excursions to both. Albert the care taker was very nice and accessible. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit!

Wonderful location near to pretty villages

Excellent facilities with pool and tennis court. Quiet, but convenient location with the use of bicycles to visit nearby attractions. Lavardin, Vendome and Montoire sur Loir are very pretty villages/towns and it was an authentic French experience. All the locals were friendly and welcoming. Great trip.

Une très bonne semaine à La Chapelle

C’est une grande propriété, rustique et sympathique, où nous avons pris plaisir à partager nos repas avec toute la famille (11 personnes). La piscine et le cours de tennis sont un plus. La région à elle seule suffira à combler les amoureux d’histoire !

TRES BEAU GITE MAIS...

Déception à l'arrivée. En effet, le ménage n avait pas été fait. Les draps des lits des précédents occupants n'avaient pas été changés...nous avons du passer 3h (en période de crise sanitaire) à nettoyer le gîte, faire la vaisselle, les sanitaires (merci aux trentenaires parisiens d'avoir laissé un logement dans cet état et si peu respectueux des lieux) avec le concours des charmants voisins des propriétaires. Les propriétaires, quant à eux, ont été charmants et tellement désolés de cette situation qu'ils eu à gérer depuis l'écosse, mais au final ont été tout à fait arrangeants. Malgré ces désagréments, nous avons toutefois passé un excellent séjour en famille et au calme.

Very charming house

From the moment we arrived in this charming house we were well established and felt cosy and at home with the big fire in the main room! The weather was mild for the time of the year so we enjoyed a lot the tennis court. Nigels hospitality is marvellous and also Albert the neighbor was looking after us. We have spend a super winterholiday in la Chapelle! Just one little note is that the beds are very small, at home we have a larger one:)

Heerlijk verblijf

We hebben een prachtige week in La Chapelle gehad. De alle kamers waren goed uitgerust, weliswaar wat aan de oude kant, maar prima te gebruiken. Alles wat we nodig hadden was aanwezig, van bbq-gerei, tennisrackets, naald en draad, handdoeken, fietsen, informatie over de omgeving etc. De omgeving was erg landelijk, rustgevend en inspirerend (kastelen, Tours, Ambloise, etc.) De kleinkinderen genoten van het aanwezige speelgoed en het zwembad (opa, oma en groot-oma van 87 trouwens ook) Monsieur Albert en zijn vrouw kwamen af en toe langs voor een praatje en wat werkzaamheden. Een paar tips: - Laat gasten geen etenswaren en keukengerei achterlaten. Sommige zaken zijn al ver over de uiterste houdbaarheidsdatum. Het is volgens ons prettiger in een ‘schoon’ leeg huis te komen - Een parasol is aan vervanging toe - We hadden een kleine lekkage, de kit in de badkamer boven is poreus - Er moet een bierglas worden aangevuld. We zijn deze kwijtgeraakt! Wij zullen deze accommodatie zeker aanbevelen aan familie, vrienden en kennissen!! Als voormalig leerkracht geef ik deze accommodatie (qua prijs-kwaliteit en ons gezelschap) een 9. Met vriendelijke groeten, Frans en Dineke Pronk
