Vue Loire

In this village on the banks of the Loire, between Angers and Nantes, you'll be charmed by this old 3-storey house, featuring noble materials (terracotta floor tiles, old parquet flooring, typical Loire tufa stone, etc.) and a 60m² south-facing terrace overlooking the Loire. On the first floor, you'll find a living room with TV, and a fully-equipped kitchen (fridge, oven, dishwasher, induction hob, etc.) with direct access to the terrace. To warm up in winter after long walks, you can use the wood-burning stove (wood not supplied). On each floor, you'll find two bedrooms sharing a bathroom with bath and WC: one with two 90cm beds and the other with a 160x200cm double bed. The bathrooms are adjacent to one of the bedrooms and do not have independent access. A separate toilet is located on the ground floor. Outside, you'll enjoy a lovely terrace with garden furniture, chiliennes and parasol, the ideal place to relax and admire the Loire River as it changes with the hours and the seasons. For your comfort and to lighten your luggage, beds are made up on arrival and towels are provided. The owners are passionate about history and antiques, and will be delighted to share their village's history with you. The gîte has no private parking, but you can park in the surrounding streets or in the free public parking lot 50m away. On the historic border between Anjou and Brittany and a former merchant port, the village offers a wide range of services (crêperie, pizzeria, bar and restaurants, etc.) and entertainment in season, as well as a beach on the other side of the Loire in summer. You can also walk or cycle along the Loire à Vélo circuit and discover the surrounding villages (Saint Florent le Vieil and its abbey church, Chalonnes sur Loire and its market, Ile Béhuard... ) or fish along the banks of the Loire. Looking for an urban getaway? Angers is only 30 min away (20 min by train), and if you prefer Nantes, its journey and its famous machines, you can get there in 50 min by car or 30 min by train, with the station just a 10 min walk away.
