The gîte is the gatehouse of the chateau. The bedrooms (2 double beds) are spacious and there is a living/dining room and well equipped kitchen including dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker etc. The location is a short distance outside Blois and makes an excellent base for exploring the sights of the area. We ordered bikes from les Vélos Verts which were delivered and waiting for us. We then were able to cycle to Chambord, Cheverny, Blois and others, on small roads or dedicated cycle ways. The gîte has access to the amazing large pool. Beer and wine is stocked in the pool house, just sign and settle up later. We also took a balloon ride with Les Compagnons du Vent which was amazing, floating over Blois with Chambord visible near the landing. We stayed 10 days in August 2021. Gaël is the host and owner of the chateau. He could not have been more charming and helpful. Strongly recommended!
