Le Chenin, Gite for 2/3
Le Chenin gite is designed for two or three people with the couch dropping down to form another bed. There is a DVD, Wi-Fi and satellite TV.
Inspected and rated as three star accommo
dation by Gites de France and situated on the ground floor of one wing of this 17th. Century wine makers house, opening onto the courtyard. We specifically designed and renovated this gite for two people after noting the problems which we had when we tried to find similar accommodation many years ago when regularly holidaying in France.
The gite has one en-suite bedroom with a double bed. In the lounge is a double bed-settee and there is an extra toilet just outside the entrance doors. In the lounge you will find Satellite TV, DVD, games and books. Hair dryer in bedroom. All bedding, pillow-cases and towels etc., are included in the price.
The kitchen area is equipped with an oven which, as is common in this part of the Loire, is operated by both gas and electric. The door just to the right of the photograph opens directly on to the flower decked courtyard and there are a table and chairs immediately outside the door, next to the courtyard fountain, for al-fresco meals.
The kitchen in the gite is fully equipped to the exacting standards laid out by "Gites de France" and include 
everything you need for a pleasant stay including: microwave, refrigerator, washing machine and dish washer, toaster, coffee-maker and includes enough plates, cups, glasses, cutlery and pots and pans for four people.
Our Gites are also ideal for relaxing short breaks in the Loire outside our main season.

"The prospect for an idyllic stay on an old wine estate has been fully realized. Le Chenin has been very comfortable. It is tastefully furnished and accommodates all modern needs" KS. USA. Oct. 2006
"Thank you so much for a fantastic week. A perfect gite in a perfect location. We really couldn't have expected more or asked for so much. We appreciate all the hard work you have done in supplying all the creature comforts and, on top of that we loved Brian's wine tour but most of all we enjoyed the company of both of you throughout the holiday. J&S. England .June 2010
"Another perfect week in your magic kingdom. Memories replenished. We travel with our dream of living in France still intact". A&P England July 2010
"A place of character and charm. Well placed for many activities from watching the day pass to trying the flavours of the Loire. Loved Le Puy Notre Dame. Thanks to Sheila and Brian for advice and company. Will visit again as very much enjoyed the week. P&C England May 2011
"We enjoyed our stay here in Le Puy Notre Dame. We got a much needed rest and loved being in the vineyards. The meal you did on our first night was fabulous and Brian was an outstanding guide to the wine of Le Puy Notre Dame. Sheila gave great advice about Chateaux to visit in the area and the local restaurant was outstanding. We will be recommending your gites to our guests who might be travelling to France".
