Le Plessis-Le Lierre - Loire Valley-Amboise, 18th Century Farmhouse, Pool

We had a wonderful time at Le Plessis. Michel and Muriel were fabulous hosts- very friendly and generous. The pool was lovely, though due to the weather we weren't able to use it as much as we would have liked. Beautiful grounds, surrounded by lovely countryside - so quiet and peaceful. We loved having the sheep and chickens roaming around nearby. The 2 cats were an added bonus as we're both cat lovers! We have visited the Loire valley 4 times and this was, by far, the best place we have stayed. Thank you to our lovely hosts for the longest aperitif evening ever (6 and a half hours!) with lots of drinks, snacks and laughs!! We felt genuinely sad to leave. We were so quiet and relaxed that on a couple of occasions, the owners were worried something had happened to us and came to check we were ok! It's ok, Michel and Muriel- we're not dead! Hahaha. Such a wonderful time, thank you xxx

We were looking for a quiet, relaxing holiday whilst being able to soak up the French way of life and Le Plessis was perfect! Muriel and Michel were perfect hosts. The accomodation and swimming pool were beautiful. Thanks for a great time

We had a magical time staying at Le Plessis! Michele & Muriel were incredible hosts. It was peaceful and not too far to Amboise. We had everything we needed at the house and felt so relaxed. The children loved the pool and we had so much space to enjoy time together on our summer holiday. Recommend this property highly if you are traveling to the Loire region with kids! (Our children are 7 and 12). Also we found a little winery only 5 min away! Definitely recommend this for a lovely and memorable holiday!

Thank you to Muriel and Michal - we had a very nice stay in a nice apartment and a beautiful pool!

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.

This was a wonderful find. Le Plessis is a fantastic place to stay. Muriel and Michel are lovely and make your stay perfect. The loft is very spacious, spotlessly clean, fully equipped and really comfortable. Our daughter enjoyed her time in the pool and it is an ideal location to explore the Loire Valley. Le Plessis is completely peaceful and in a stunning location. We had probably our best stay in France here, and we would love to return. My only concern in praising this so much is that others will snap it up first!

Our hosts were very accommodating and helpful, on call throughout our stay. The pool was a very welcome addition to cool day after a day exploring. Beautiful accommodation in a very rural quite location.

All went smoothly and Michel & Muriel very friendly and helpful

My friend and I stayed at one of the manager's great Paris apartments first, before opting for a French Country experience. Our stay in this huge apartment, over what was once the stables, was paradise. The tall ceilings, the amazing beams, and exposed stone. It was historic, but modern, with fast Internet, free calls to Canada, and English T.V. channels. We were minutes from Amboise, a town with lots to see, including DaVinci's home, the Royal Palace, and the open market. There was a yummy bakery in the small town, and a very upper end restaurant too - delicious! The owners of the farm were so nice and helpful, and the grounds well kept. We especially enjoyed feeding our left over bread to the friendly sheep in their field, and relaxing under the oaks, after visiting a chateau per day. We highly recommend this rental to families who want to discover the Loire Valley, and experience the best of the French countryside

My husband and I stayed in Le loft for a week last year and couldn't have been happier.It was everything we had ever dreamed of and even more! I'm writing this so late because I thought I had written a review but then realised I had only written in the guest book at Le Loft when we left. Everyone should know how wonderful this place is! We had just finished a fairly hectic 5 week tour of the UK, followed by visiting World War 1 and World War 2 sites in France so we were really in need of a rest. We found the place quite easily , thanks to Steven's very good directions and with help from our sat nav. We were greeted warmly by Steven, but Veronica wasn't there as she was away and not coming back until that night. When she did arrive she had the flu and was sick the whole time we were there for which she was very apologetic but she really needed to rest, which of course, we understood. Le Loft itself has all mod cons whilst being a very old farmhouse. The bed was comfortable, it was peaceful and quiet, beautiful views from the balcony---everything you could ask for in farmhouse accommodation. We had a great thunderstorm one night that went on for hours with lightning constantly flashing through the forest next door--it was wonderful.We even had visits from green tree frogs because it was quite humid and even hot some days we were there. Thank heavens for the ceiling fans! We were able to get our washing done there which was piling up after so long on the road without stopping for more than one night and Steven kindly helped with the washing machine and dryer. He was also most helpful with things to do in the surrounding areas and we only managed to cover a fraction of what he suggested! We did go to the local famous top class restaurant, Auberge de la Brenne which he recommended and we had an amazing meal there. There is just so much to see in this area and Le Loft is a perfect base, much better than staying in a hotel in a city. Just go there and see for yourself---you will never regret it! it's perfect.
