 'Les Balcons' is a substantial 3 bedroom Loire Valley house over two floors with a delightful raised balcony offering lovely views, giving you a countryside feel but with all the village amenities. There is also a 'Juliet' balcony off one of the bedrooms. The house is located in the charming village of Le Grand Pressigny in Southern Touraine in the Loire Valley in France.

From the house it is only a few minutes walk to the village centre with its restaurants, bars and shops. The village’s location halfway between the cities of Tours and Poitiers makes it an ideal base to explore the Loire Valley, its many chateaux and pretty villages as well as the department of Vienne where you can visit the theme park of Futuroscope. The nearest chateaux  at Le Guerche and Le Grand Pressigny itself are only minutes away. You can have a true French experience as it is relatively 'tourist free' but still take advantage of all this beautiful area has to offer, everything from picturesque villages, citadel towns ( many with their own chateau), sandy beaches by beautiful lakes, safari parks and troglodytes.


There are many gites and self catering properties to rent for your French holiday, but this Loire Valley village house, all you see, is a complete family home, giving you spacious accommodation with beamed ceilings and tiled floors downstairs helping it to retain its French charm. It is a private and self-contained 'home from home'.

 


What you also get is the local experience of your hosts who, although not on site, are within easy reach and only too pleased to help overcome any small problems that may arise while travelling in a country with cultural and language differences, we make ourselves available to make your Loire Valley Holiday  as carefree as possible.

As you can see from the old postcard below our street has not changed much over the years (apart from the name) so you will be able to get a feel for true French country living.

 

      


 

 

Here is our favourite view on the street - it is actually within the garden of the large house on the right - and changes with the seasons.
