The Donjon (Tower) Room is a unique experience I'll never forget. The two-story room sits high in the Château's main turret, where a bedroom graces the lower level and glass-floor bathroom (!!) has been crammed into the upper reaches of the tower. The toilet sits in a tiny enclosed stall, so at least your covered there. But watch your head - those arches hang low, especially in the middle of the night after you've bobbled up a narrow set of winding stairs. Also, how is it that the bidet sits across the glass floor from the toilet??

Regardless, this is an entertaining room, and one to book if you're looking for a bit of an adventure. But pack light - the turret stairs are difficult to navigate with bags in tow!

Historical perspective: The Château was built in the 15th century and later visited by Kings Charles VII and Louis XII. It also played host to General Charles de Gaulle, who stayed here before fleeing to England ahead of the advancing German army.

"Our stay at Katherine Cottage was absolutely perfect, the cottage is beautiful , inside and out, it is set in a woodland setting ,beside a little river. We have stayed many times in French properties, but none of them can compare with this fabulous place"

"Our group of friends loved the property and the grounds. The pool and tennis court are great, and we loved our morning jogs through the surrounding forests. A great place if you like a remote break with friends"

"this property is very comfortable but is especially excellent if you have a disability and need to use a wheelchair to get about. "

"We booked to stay for a family event. We know the area & the house is ideally situated for so many places to visit. The host was exemplary. He introduced us to the house & was available if needed, which he was not. Nothing bad today."

"Très bien"

"Fantastic house and a very personable owner."

"Tres bien placé pour faire les châteaux de la Loire et le zoo de Beauval . Un jour châteaux 1 matin et soir le lendemain Beauval et maisons troglodytes . 3eme jour clos lucé Amboise , Azay le rideau et le soir ile de Ré . "

"This property is in a very quiet village with only a boulangerie which isn't open every day and a posh Chateau restaurant. There's a supermarket 8 minutes away and other boulangeries. We swam in the river, visited Amboise, Tours, chateaus and Beauval zoo from here. The house is spacious. and has everything you need. The hosts are kind and friendly. They live 2 doors up. We were shocked by the amount charged for bedding though.E149 Agree a price before you go."

"Le propriétaire est quelqu'un de très agréable, très accueillant. Nous étions 4 couples d'amis avec 5 enfants (de 1 mois à 5 ans). L'endroit est reposant et magnifique. Le service est de très grande qualité (la maison est magnifique, les pièces sont très grandes, la literie est top), tout est compris (linge, draps, ménage en fin de séjour) ce qui rend le séjour zen. Les enfants ont adoré nourrir les animaux. Les parents ont adoré les soirées sur la terrasse, le terrain de pétanque, la piscine...

"Bel emplacement. Toutes les commodités à proximité."

"Tout est au petit soins bonne literie grands espaces de vie belles salles de bains Tout pour un bon séjour "

"Lovely place, feels remote but is actually only 5 minutes from pretty much everything you will need. Very well presented with everything you will need for a large group. Clean and very well equipped. Thankyou for having us"

8/10 Good

"The staff at the hotel was absolutely helpful and went out of their way to accommodate me "

Westotel Tours Val de Loire

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel! Beautiful well appointed room. Comfortable King size bed. Great shower. Wonderful breakfast. Enjoyed having a couch and coffee table. Separate toilet room. Would have preferred real coffee cups rather than cardboard cups. Would have liked a shelf or alcove in the shower to hold our soap and shampoo. But everything else was just perfect!"
