Further Details for the farmhouse in Loire Valley, France

Crene - where a warm welcome awaits Crène (converted from the original barn of the farm) has thick stone walls, creating a wonderful cool interior during the Summer and cozy warmth during the cooler months. The house consists of an open plan living area, with fully fitted kitchen (dishwasher/microwave oven/fridge/freezer), lounge area with satellite TV, DVD player, CD player and a selection of movies, books and board games and children's toys. The dining area leads out on to the terrace through french doors, where you will find patio furniture along with a gas BBQ. There is a separate laundry with washing machine. The farmhouse is surrounded by a hectare of gardens complete with swing-set, and plenty of open space, great for playing with the kids and six adult bikes plus several children's bikes are also available for your use. We can also offer the opportunity for local wine tasting sessions (in English) and the opportunity of a escorted vineyard visit to sample a selection of the wonderful wines on offer locally.

Things to do locally .... The beautiful medieval town of Loches is a mere 10 minutes drive from Crène. Here you will find a good selection of supermarkets, banks, boulangeries and bars. The choice of restaurants is excellent - ranging from small traditional bars offering 3 course meals with wine from 11 euros a head, to restaurants and hotels offering silver service for that special evening out. The twice weekly market is not to be missed - fresh local fruit and veg, renown fromage de chèvre (goat's cheese), fresh pâtés and rillettes (potted meat), olives, craft stalls and of course local wines! Crène is ideally situated for visiting châteaux, including Chinon, Amboise (with the house/exhibition of Leonardo de Vinci), Azay le Rideau, Chenonceau, Langeais, Blois, Chambord, Rigny Ussy, Valancay and Montresor. Some of the châteaux also perform Son et Lumiere shows during the Summer.

And if that isn't enough? Golf: There are 9 and 18 hole golf courses at La Roche Posay that are challenging for both novice and experiences golfers and an demanding 9 hole course at Vernueil-sur-Indre (15 mins drive). Tours, with its beautiful old town and modern shops is 40 mins drive, Poitiers boasts Futuroscope - an excellent day out for all the family giving you the magic of 3D, virtual reality simulator rides and circular cinemas. Other suggestions include: La Haute-Touche (the largest zoological park in France), Zooparc Beauval, (an excellent family day out), the steam train from Richelieu to Chinon, the donkey park at Parc Le Fou de L'Ane, Parc Mini-Châteaux, Les Grottes Petrifiantes, the Aquarium de Touraine, (including piranhas, sharks and crocodiles) and Les Aigles du Donjon (an 11th century castle where you can watch displays of birds of prey) ... the list goes on, so what are you waiting for?
