Les 4 Ckc Superbe séjour
Le gîte de La Douve est idéalement situé à Descartes. Calme, chaleureux et décoré avec goût. Il offre, depuis la chambre parentale, une magnifique vue sur la Creuse, dont nous avons pleinement profité.
Ces deux semaines ont été très agréables. Merci à notre hôte de nous avoir partagé l’histoire de cette maison, chargée de souvenirs familiaux.
Depuis le gîte, tout est accessible à pied : la boulangerie Aux Délices Saint-Jacques et leur fameuse « Poulicharde », la fromagerie Au Gré des Saveurs avec des produits de qualité dont du beurre de Pamplie à la motte, et la pizzeria Pinocchio, pour un délicieux voyage culinaire en Italie.
Côté activité, à deux pas, un charmant jardin public ombragé invite à la détente, et dans son prolongement une vraie piscine d’été.
Les alentours réservent également de superbes découvertes : la forteresse de Chinon, le château de Loches, ou encore Châtellerault et ses deux parcours thématiques, son jeu d’énigmes au cœur de l’ancienne manufacture d’armes « l’affaire KELLER » mis à disposition par l’office du tourisme — un carton plein auprès de nos ados !
En résumé, tout est réuni pour un séjour inoubliable : confort, sérénité, plaisirs gourmands et escapades. Une adresse que nous recommandons sans hésitation !
