tout correspond à ce qui est écrit. Nos hôtes avaient préparé beaucoup de places dans leurs armoires et penderies afin que nous puissions déposer nos affaires...ce qui devient très rare. Bon repas tout prêt à notre arrivée, petit cadeau de bienvenue avec des spécialités locales ( ce qui était une habitude mais qui devient aussi fort rare...)Position très intéressante de la maison qui permet d'arriver à pieds au château de Chenonceau et de faire pas mal de courses à pied. Fauteuils de jardin,maison claire, lumineuse et très propre. Nous recommandons vraiment un échange avec cette famille très sympa qui est vraiment dans l'esprit d'Intervac comme nous le connaissions quand nous avons commencé les échanges dans les années 80. De plus nous avons trouvé une maison impeccable à notre retour.
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans la maison de nos hôtes. La maison est propre, spacieuse et douillette, un appel à la sérénité. Nous avons particulièrement apprécié la grande baie vitrée du salon qui donne sur leur magnifique jardin ainsi que l'immense bibliothèque. Joëlle et Jean-Paul avaient laissé énormément de documentations pour les sorties et découvertes à ne pas manquer, mais nous avons également pu échanger au cours de notre séjour ce qui est très appréciable. Nous sommes ravis de ce bel échange.
Charming, comfortable and pleasant house set in a majestic garden. We had an excellent stay, thanks in particular to the invaluable advice of our hosts.
Very nice modern house in the middle of the Loire valley, perfect for exploring the area. Welcoming family who made our stay very pleasant.
