Very Relaxing Stay
The cottage was comfortable, location was perfect and outdoor space amazing. Both Oxanna and Brigette were very helpful with the aid of Google translate. We unfortunately couldn't use the main pool as there was a problem with the filtration system and we weren't aware of it until we arrived which was disappointing. Overall we had a lovely relaxing break.

Relaxing Rural Retreat
The characterful renovated gardener’s cottage is sited in the beautiful countryside of the Loire (although it is very dry at the moment) and has all the amenities for a very enjoyable and peaceful holiday. The highlight of the property is the magnificent walled garden and orchard with its abundance of flowers, fruit and vegetables as well as a haven for bird life. We spent a lot of time simply soaking in the tranquility, lounging under the trees and cooling off in the swimming pool. Local amenities are only a short drive away or an hours walk if you feel so inclined. Ghislaine is an excellent host as is Alfons her constant canine companion. We would highly recommend this property especially if you are looking the unwind, enjoy nature and recharge your batteries.

Great accommodation in rural France with the benefit of all modern facilities but loses none of that
Great accommodation in rural France with the benefit of all modern facilities but loses none of that rustic charm. The kitchen garden and the freedom to roam the estate were key features. Close proximity to charming town of Segre provided good supermarkets, shops, restaurants and easy access to major routes to enable exploring the western side of the Loire valley, The following comments relate to the website: - Our first impressions on arrival were of a lovely location and clean well-equipped accommodation. As the owner was leaving having shown us round the cottage we asked how we accessed the pool and she directed us to the end of the walled garden. She then informed us that we could not use the pool after 3.00pm. We did not know that we had shared use of the pool with the owner. This restriction is not stated on the English part of the website, although it does mention in that we had restricted access to the Walled Garden. The owner did recognise this omission and did text us on Monday to say that we could use the pool after 3.00pm. I feel this should be made clearer at the outset as I would not have booked if I had known we did not have unrestricted use of the pool and it was shared with the Owner as it is an essential part of our holiday experience. I would also add that when we went up to the pool on the Sunday early afternoon there were children’s toys all over the side of the pool and towels on the four loungers. We did not feel we could move anything so had a swim and went back to the cottage so unable to lay by the pool. The toys were cleared up for the Monday, but towels continued to be left on the loungers until finally we cleared them on the Wednesday to be able to use at least two loungers. The Owner mentioned at the outset that problems existed with Wifi and that she was in touch with the provider. We had no connection throughout the week and as our daughter runs her own business this was a serious omission, and again had we known that Wifi was an issue we would not have booked this accommodation. We gave this feedback to the Owner when we left, and she informed us that there would not be Wifi available until the end of August. She said had we needed to access the Wifi we should have asked, and we could have used hers but as she had not said that on our arrival we would not have known that was an option.

Lovely little gem in the Loire
lovely secluded location. Close enough to the delightful little town of Segre or a 45 minute drive to Saumur, 30 mins to Angers and a lovely little 15 min drive to Chateau Gontier. The property is well stocked , think BBQ, wine opener, can opener, fridge freezer, candles , etc...in a well stocked kitchen. Lovely design , practical with 2 double beds and 2 single beds. Upstairs bathroom was fantastic for water pressure and a bath as well. Beds are very comfortable. downstairs TV but more importantly the garden - just incredible. It felt like a Secret Garden or something from a Lewis Carroll novel. I would like to thank Ghislaine for her fantastic hospitaltiy.

What a treasure
The Gardener’s House is very well equipped and in the most beautiful of settings. To look out over and walk through the gardens is a pleasure. The countryside offers a quiet setting for rest and relaxation. Ghislaine welcomed us warmly and generously shared her garden’s bounty and homemade products. The home served as an excellent base to bicycle through the wheat fields of the northern Loire Valley. Easy access to the tow paths along the Mayenne River is a real bonus for cyclists.

Lovely cottage with unique garden
We stayed two weeks in the cottage in august. We enjoyed a warm and friendly welcome. The cottage is cosy, the kitchen is well-equipped and the beds are very comfortable. The view from the master bedroom is truly splendid. The backdoor give you access to a very large walled vegetable garden that is absolutely unique. We made great meals with fresh salad and tomatoes. The pool of the owners is accessible and there is a private pool in the front lawn which our kids loved. Within an hour’s drive there are more than 80 castles. The nearby city’s of Angers and Nantes are also worth a visit. This is a place of peace and quiet and a lovely holiday destination for all ages.
