Best place to see the castles and know the aristocracy
If you want to see the Loire castles you may stay many places. But Rochefuret Castle is the ideal place to stay and visit in style. The hosts are great, the place is amazing, a real castle which can be anytime in the visiting circuit. And if the castle is not enough the surrounding estate forest is even better. A place you can get lost within the property walls. Privacy of stay, entry and exit at any time, the guests house is a separate unit, own garden, a very comfortable place to relax after a day of roaming around.

Hidden Gem
The owner was gracious with her time. She shared history of the property and was helpful in offering special stops on our itinerary. We especially enjoyed the beautiful guesthouse furnishings. The beds were very comfortable and we had everything we needed to prepare an evening dinner from our trip to the Ballan-Mire market.

Un beau souvenir
Après une expérience désagréable avec l’appartement que nous avions loué à Paris, nous avons encore plus apprécié la qualité de l’accueil et le confort de l’appartement de Rochefuret. L’appartement est très beau, fort propre et bien équipé. La propriétaire nous a accueilli avec chaleur et amabilité. Le site où se trouve l’appartement, le parc du Château de Rochefuret, est d’une très grande beauté, calme et silencieux. Tous les services (épicerie, boulangerie, essence...) sont à 5 minutes en auto à Ballan-Miré. Les plus beaux châteaux de la Loire ainsi que quelques-uns des lieux primés Plus beau village de France sont situés dans un rayon de 90 kilomètres dont certain à 15 minutes. Des balades inoubliables d’où nous revenions avec bonheur sachant que nous nous retrouverions dans le cadre enchanteur du Château de Rochefuret.

séjour et demeure exquis
La Touraine et ses châteaux, et bien vous y serez !, l'endroit, une dépendance du château est vaste, raffiné, paisible, entouré de verdures. D'une propreté exemplaire, la literie douillette et parfaite, tout est pensé, organisé pour se sentir comme à la maison. La propriétaire est d'une gentillesse exquise, elle vous contera l'histoire du lieu ... voilà tout est dit ... une parenthèse de calme et de vrai repos, hors du temps.
