“What an exceptional stay! It was perfect! Authentically French! Richard and Sophie have updated this chateau to a warm, cozy and inviting accommodation, paying attention to every detail. From the beautiful landscape and the history of the home to the home grown gardens to the charming pets, large and small, it just does not get any better. Richard is the perfect host from a exquisite French breakfast every morning, then helping us to plan our day and generously making the perfect dinner……
“We had a wonderful stay at Le Clos Sainte-Marie and couldn’t recommend it more highly. It offers a truly authentic Loire Valley experience — peaceful, welcoming, and full of local charm.
The hosts were incredibly hospitable and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The property was spotlessly clean, the rooms were spacious and very private, and the location is ideal — close to most of the major Loire Valley castles.
Breakfast was simply outstanding — the most delicious we had……
“I didn’t expect it to be this good. I’d just booked the cheapest room, expecting a small room in the attic. But it was very large, newly renovated with an updated (excellent) shower. The AC was completely silent and cooled down the room effectively despite it being 99 F outside.
The restaurant is okay for dinner and great for breakfast.
We also enjoyed the pool table and walking along the little river nearby. Best chateau stay we had on this trip 10/10”
“Das Zimmer Peintre hat uns sehr gut gefallen, alles war sehr sauber und das Bad war sehr sauber und modern eingerichtet. Die Bettlaken und -kissen waren sehr sauber und die herzliche Gastgeberin hat uns ein herrliches Frühstück bereitet. Wir kommen sehr gern wieder!”
“Séjour parfait, seul regret, ne pas y avoir séjourné plus longtemps! Nous nous souviendrons de la gentillesse des hôtes, le confort de la chambre et le sublime petit déjeuner.”
“Excellent accueil dans cette chambre d'hôte très bien située, dans une maison coquette, bénéficiant d'un parking fermé le soir. Très bon petit déjeuner! hôtes charmants et soucieux que tout aille pour le mieux ...On y retournera avec plaisir

“Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Hund gegen Aufpreis kein Problem und große Garage, in der das Auto mit Dachbox locker Platz hatte. Etwas abseits in kleinem Dorf gelegen, aber ideal für Ausflüge nach Segovia und Avila.”
