Unique experience
Unique opportunity to stay in a Troglodyte. View is worth the climb. Easily found parking. Great location - used as base to tour the Loire valley. Would stay again if we return to the area.

Beautiful view, great location
We stayed here for six nights and would definitely stay again. The gite is exactly as it was portrayed in the photos. Julie, our host, was very helpful and responsive to our questions. The gite was comfortable with everything needed for two people. We loved sitting out on the terrace and looking out over the river while having breakfast or an Apero. There is a wonderful bakery in the center of town for getting morning croissant, and we had a fabulous dinner at a local restaurant called Le Part Belle. There were also some lovely walking trails around the town, both along the river and up in the vineyards, that we enjoyed. It is a little hike up to the gite, but it was a good way to get in more steps. Parking was safe and easy down on the Quai. Thank you!

Formidable!!!
What a wonderful experience. The village is lovely, the Gite is exactly how described: quaint, spacious, and even bright! 400m from a patisseries, small grocery, and bus stop with easy access to Tours. Julie is warm, accessible, and very helpful. Place is perfect for a couple, and even with a small child. HIGHLY recommend...and am already thinking how I can return with family next time!

Great experience in Rochecorbon
Julie was so very helpful and responsive with any questions or requests. She provided great recommendations for restaurants and things to see in the area. You must ask for the breakfast and Julie brought this up each morning. Was great to sit out on the patio, have a French breakfast. Rochecorbon was very relaxed and what we needed. Thanks again Julie for a great stay.

Un bonheur !
Expérience troglodytique extra, un gîte avec une belle surface, une chouette terrasse avec vue magnifique, un « nid d’aigle » tout confort et wifi fonctionnel. Un peu sportif d’y accéder mais quand vous êtes chez vous, vous êtes seuls au monde. Les hôtes sont très gentils, accueil parfait et toujours avec le sourire . Nous conseillons vivement le petit déjeuner proposé, pains et viennoiseries tout frais nous ont régalé, à tel point que nous ne mangions quasiment pas à midi. Ravis en tous points, de cette expérience inoubliable. Fabrice et Fabienne

Troglodyte in super Lage mit Blick auf die Loire
Super Lage, gewöhnungsbedürftiges Raumklima, teilweise, wegen der Raumfeuchte, Schimmel in den Schränken, täglich Schmutz, durch die vielen Tauben am Fels, auf der Terasse, trotzdem Abenteuer pur. Freundliche Vermieterin. Gesamteindruck gut.

Expérience dépaysante
Dormir dans une chambre troglodyte est une expérience dépaysante. Il y règne un calme, une sensation d'être retiré de tout, enfoui dans la terre qui invite à retrouver un sommeil de bébé. Mais notre troglo était en hauteur et dès le réveil, depuis la terrasse, la vue sur la Loire était magnifique. Notre séjour a été un peu gâché par une météo grise, froide et pluvieuse qui nous a entraînée à visiter à fond jardins, châteaux et boutiques qui ne manquent pas dans cette région !! Julie a été très réactive pour nous aider à résoudre un petit souci de Wifi à notre arrivée et a tout remis en ordre de marche. La maison est spacieuse et bien équipée. Merci beaucoup.
