A haven of peace in the village of Montrésor (Châteaux de la Loire)

This house with character is surrounded by trees and is very close to a small river. You will find yourself in a haven of peace… Montrésor is a village which has been officially recognized as one of the most beautiful villages of France (label: “Plus beaux villages de France”) and it is only 500m away from la Ronde. You can also see the remains of a roman aqueduct just 50m away from the house on a recommended walking and horseback riding trail.
Why not spend some time in this haven of peace called la Ronde and visit Montrésor?

Lovely property with super friendly helpful host nearby. We were disappointed the local lake was closed for swimming at the time but there were 2 pools in nearby villages.

Lots of room and a sweet, quiet location.
The house had such character. I suggest that perhaps the comfy master bedroom easy chairs should be moved into the living room, or new sofas bought. The property is sweet, very private, and Montrésor is a lovely place to spend a holiday.

Beautiful, peaceful location.
The gite was very comfortable, well equipped and cool in the exceptional hot weather. It's location is perfect. Calm and peaceful, in extensive grounds with a gentle river flowing nearby. Lots of shady areas to sit and relax but also close to a footpath to the lake at Chemille. Montresor is a picturesque village with an interesting chateau and is about 10 minutes walk away, down a track. Most of all Katherine was the perfect host. So helpful, friendly and welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Perfect spot for relaxation
A lovely characterful, rustic property in a beautiful location, close to a historic and pretty village. The village had good facilities and was well placed to explore the surrounding area, walking, cycling, visiting towns and villages and various chateaux. The host Katherine was very friendly, informative and kind and was helpful when we had some issues with the wifi. We had a relaxing ten days and the property location was delightful, by a river surrounded by beautiful countryside.

Beautiful location and great host
This is a super gite, set in the most peaceful surroundings. Well equipped, especially appreciated the outdoor seating and eating area. Easy walking distance of village with restaurant, bakery and Proxi supermarket. Katherine, the host, lives in the house next door but we never felt intruded upon. She was such a lovely host, giving us lots of suggestions on where to visit and eat.

Tranquil gîtes close to excellent facilities
A delightful stay with grown up children in one of our favourite parts of France. The gîtes is in a secluded location down a private track, with the discrete and helpful owner (and friendly dog!) next door in the only other property for about a kilometre. The predominant sound was birdsong and l’Indrois. We sampled two of the three restaurants in the village (both very good), patronised the well stocked (if a little pricey) supermarché (ask for steak haché!!) and, of course, the boulangerie. Much cycling, running (a voie verte runs behind the gîte) and visiting of chateaux filled our week.

Relaxing hideaway
This was a fantastic holiday home. It is ideal if you want a relaxing, peaceful break. We enjoyed cycling locally and the giant zipwire over the lake. The home was very well equipped with so many places to sit and relax inside and out.

Perfect!
An extraordinary home that exceeded our expectations. The location is idyllic as is the town of Montresor. The house itself is beautifully appointed (we all loved the incredibly comfortable beds!) and has everything you need if you choose to cook--there's a great grocery store and bakery in town. We hope to be back.

Peaceful setting
A lovely spot by a flowing river with loads of butterflies & damselflies. An interesting house and we were grateful for the cool and spacious interior during hot weather. Conveniently situated just outside a pretty village, a good small supermarket nearby. Lots of interesting places to see within 20 miles. And, of course, a very welcoming and helpful host.

The property is the perfect country escape. Ideal for families!!
The house was perfect for what we needed. It is very well restored and communication with Katherine was excellent. She and her family were very welcoming and our children loved playing with her grandchildren. I highly recommend a stay at this house if you are visiting the Loire Valley.

Beautiful haven of peace
We had a wonderful week at La Ronde. The house is perfect for a quiet getaway - all you can hear is the sound of the stream and the birds (unless you have kids like us!) Montresor is a very beautiful village which we enjoyed exploring and the Nuites Soldaires by the river were a wonderful surprise. There is some nice bike riding to be had, and plenty to do with kids. The lake-beach at Chemille is great on a hot day (and walkable from the house). Katherine was a wonderful host - and had her grandchildren staying with her who played with our daughter in the garden. Elton the dog was also great fun and really friendly with all our kids. Thank you - we'll definitely come back to La Ronde!

Un havre de paix!
Fabuleux! Rien d'autre à ajouter. Tout est parfait : le cadre, l'accueil, la maison, le jardin, les équipements et le calme absolu, accompagné du chant des oiseaux et de la rivière. Éloigné de la route, dans un cadre de verdure, nous recommandons sans aucune réserve ce petit bijou! Et nous y retournerons très certainement, il y a tellement de choses à faire dans la région! A nouveau merci pour l'accueil, les précieux conseils et les bonnes adresses!

Nous avons passé un magnifique séjour en famille à Montrésor (4 adultes et 2 enfants en bas âge). La maison est charmante entourée de verdure, confortable, très bien équipée, et bien située pour visiter les environs et se reposer (lecture, apéritifs, barbecue..). Katherine a été une hôte chaleureuse et attentionnée, et nous avons même eu le droit à quelques visites du petit Elton ! Merci pour l'accueil !

We enjoyed this holiday home and the location very much. The owner is a very nice person who is happy to share information about the region. The holiday home fully meets our expectations.

Charming old property in a beautiful and peaceful location.
Comfortable and well provisioned. Stayed cool during hot days. Would love to come back. Easy cycle ride into Montresor, lovely town with great boulangerie and handy mini supermarket. Fantastic area. Lovely hostess whose English was far better than our French. Only concern was poor WiFi, essential when holidaying with teenagers.
