Perfect for a relaxing holiday!
We had a wonderful time in the cottage. We spent a week with our newborn baby & it was very relaxing (not easy with an 8 weeks old!) Bev was very kind and made us a wonderful dinner for our arrival (we recommend to book this prior to your arrival, it's really worth it!) The house is lovely, very comfortable. It's a pleasure to spent time in it as well as the grounds. The fresh eggs & veggies from the gardens are a great bonus! Will recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet & relaxing holiday! Thank you Bev & Nick!

Perfect!
The most beautiful and relaxing place ever! After a hideously long and stressful journey we arrived to the warm welcome of Bev who showed us round our home for the next week. We relaxed, slept, ate, drank and swam our way through the first week of our holiday. Well worth the long drive, would certainly recommend and will definitely return!

What a wonderful place La Chemoliere is. Having travelled half way round the world this was an idyllic place to soothe the jet lag away in the peaceful French countryside with only the birds singing to disturb our afternoon snoozes. The house and its grounds are delightful and very well kept. The pool and BBQ areas are great for resting during the day and socialising on the long summer evenings. What a bonus to be able to "raid" the well stocked vegetable bed to supplement our meals.
The house is very well furnished and when the sun finally goes down a nice place to retire to.
For when you want to leave the tranquillity of the house and its grounds the local area is well stocked in good produce shops, supermarches, restaurants and cafes and of course Chateaus ! We were sorry to be a couple of weeks too early to see the fields of sunflowers in full bloom.
Our host Bev looked after us well without being intrusive. The meal she prepared for us on the first evening with carafes of local wine was fantastic and started our holiday perfectly.
We have stayed in many different gites and holiday homes and this rates as an absolute favourite !

French paradise
La Chemoliere is a delightful country cottage set in very pleasant surroundings. It is peaceful and tranquil, just the sounds of birds! There are a variety of areas to sit or to eat alfresco. The vegetable garden contains a wonderful variety of organically grown produce which we were allowed to help ourselves to. There are chickens which we were also able to help ourselves to their eggs. There is a lovely lake set amongst trees and grasses. The cottage is very comfortable with all amenities available including Sky TV which meant English TV was available. A selection of board games should keep families busy in the evenings. The kitchen is well appointed including a good selection of recipe books. We recommend one of Bev's own meals, certainly an excellent way to start the holiday after a long drive.

FR17305 - the cottage was just as described and was charming. The listing description was accurate. Overall despite a few niggles we thoroughly enjoyed our stay
The property could do with a good spring-clean as there was a lot of dust. The washing machine did not work and despite speaking to the owner on a couple of occasions during our two week stay- we were only told just before we left that the belt needing replacing and it would take a couple of weeks.
We were not impressed with the service at the local restaurant but were able to travel to Loches and Chatillon which provided lovely plat-du-jours.
Loches and Chambord were well worth visiting as well as the Brenne national park
