Le Chat Courant

We had an absolutely wonderful couple of days with Eric and Cathy. They treated us like family and made us feel so welcome. We got excellent recommendations from them for places to eat locally which were excellent and great value for money. And the animals in the garden are an absolute treat. Thanks both for a special stay.

What a wonderful find - the welcome from Eric & Cathy was so warm, As others have said, they made us feel like family! The house and the garden (especially the garden) are beautiful.... with chickens, cats, squirrels (even frogs!) - we had picnics in the garden, and Eric always joined us, clutching a bottle of Chinon! The accommodation is spacious, with everything we needed.... the location is beautiful, with so many great places to visit on the doorstep - a memorable stay. We loved it!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying with Eric and Cathy, they were wonderful hosts, guiding us to restaurants and shopping (we had left electrical gadgets at home !).They gave us excellent breakfasts, including lovely warm pancakes, and were very patient with our (limited) French language skills. We loved sitting in their beautiful garden and relaxing. This was just a short visit but we would have liked to stay longer - perhaps another time !

We had a really wonderful stay at Le Chat Courant. Eric and Kathy were so welcoming and we had many enjoyable conversations at the side of the pool and around the breakfast table (Eric - thank you for helping me to improve my French conversation!) Breakfast was superb with delicious jams made from the fruits of the orchard. The gardens were beautifully designed with many echoes of Villandry (on the opposite side of the river). Very much enjoyed meeting the cats, Tea Tea and Maddie, and also the characterful chickens. We will definitely return to Le Chat Courant and can highly recommend.
