Le Seize

With a comfortable and modern interior, this gîte brillant for a fabulous getaway along the Loire. Located a short 5-10 stroll to the centre of Montsoreau (which is well served by bars/cafés, restaurants, a bakery, butchers and a mini supermarket), both bedrooms are spacious with a lovely en-suite, the kitchen has everything you'd need (Nespresso machine a bonus), and the courtyard is great for chilling and BBQ'ing! You can leave the car all week, with walks both ways along the Loire and Vienne rivers, again with more places to eat and drink. Very friendly owners with nothing too much trouble!

We had an amazing time at Le Seize. The house is absolutely lovely - beautifully decorated with a relaxing, fully-enclosed courtyard. We loved being in Montsoreau and had a ball exploring neighbouring chateaux and vineyards with our dog.

Our second visit to this wonderful house in the beautiful village of Montsoreau on the banks of the Loire. The house is tastefully furnished, very comfortable, clean and well appointed - brilliantly laid out with two large bedrooms (both en suite) and a lovely suntrap courtyard to the rear. The village is very quiet and we enjoyed a walk for a beer most evenings and bought our meat and pastries from the boucherie and boulangerie in the square. There is also a small supermarket for other 'emergencies'. Now we've found this house and village, we have already booked for 2025.

We spent two weeks in this beautiful house. Just a short walk from the village centre with a small supermarket, boucherie, boulangerie, cafés, restaurants and shops. The Sunday market was a great place to find local produce. Montsoreau is a pretty village and is well situated for exploring the area. Le Seize is beautifully restored and very tastefully decorated. The private courtyard was a peaceful place to enjoy the sunshine or shade. Our first visit to the Loire Valley, but probably not our last.

A real gem of a find. We have just had a great two weeks in Le Seize. The owners have made it a real home from home, we felt very relaxed there. Very tastefully fitted out and everything you could want to make a very enjoyable stay. Peaceful, the courtyard garden an added sun trap bonus. Montsoreau is a beautiful village, in a beautiful setting. The river is a few minutes walk away. Lots of places to visit both nearby and further afield. Would definitely return.

A lovely holiday home in a superb location. We spent a week in Le Seize in May and had a lovely stay. The property itself is bright, spacious and well decorated, and the sun-trap (weather permitting!) courtyard garden a lovely bonus. It's excellently located too, in the heart of the picturesque village, with local shops including a butcher and boulangerie, cafes, restaurants and the river Loire itself within walking distance. Glyn was an excellent host, easy to contact, responsive to any queries and providing a warm welcome on arrival. We are already planning our return trip next year.

La Seize is a beautifully restored Loire house, furnished & fitted to a very high standard. Montsoreau is a peaceful, picturesque village with many services, activities & restaurants in walking distance. Tons & tons to do and see in the wider area, and an easy drive down from the channel. Glyn and John were hugely helpful hosts, living just a few minutes away. We visited during a week of wonderful sunshine over Easter but had we been more confined the house would still have worked really well for us – spacious yet cosy, and very attractively furnished. The private courtyard is a great suntrap.

My wife and I spent 3 nights in this beautiful, thoughtfully decorated and superbly comfortable apartment. The apartment was very clean on arrival and the welcome gift was a pleasant surprise. The location is excellent with the lovely village centre within easy walking distance. We loved the good coffee machine and the fireplace with good supply of logs. The beds are very comfortable which is so important. Glynn and John were very responsive hosts and offered good tips for restaurants and sightseeing. We felt instantly at home and we plan to return.

Montsoreau is my favourite village in France and this beautifully- restored village house is the the prefect base for experiencing the Loire Valley at its best. Browse for treasures at monthly antique fair, wander the labyrinthine streets and visit the local châteaux, cycle the Loire à Velo route, taste the wonderful wines of Saumur Champigny, picnic on the riverbank...bliss!
