3 well equipped gites with swimming pool on the Loire Valley/Vienne border

Luxury self catering gites in beautiful, quiet rural surroundings of the Poitou-Charentes. Situated on the Loire/Vienne border close to Futuroscope, Chateaux, Vineyards of Saumur and Chinon as well as historic towns such as Poitiers, Tours and Richelieu.

Our three gites date back to the 16th Century and were part of a former winery which have been sympathetically converted in 2018/9, providing spacious accommodation with modern facilities. All gites have private terraces with seating and bbq which open onto large communal gardens with 10m x 5m in ground swimming pool. We have converted our former bakery into a games room with pool table, football table, dart board and toys for younger children. We have two large tables and chairs for all guests to dine together either outside undercover or inside Le Pressoir.

The characterful stone cottages under clay tile roofs offer much historic interest such as flag stone floors, exposed oak beams, indoor well covered with safety glass, vaulted ceilings and lime washed walls. The accommodation comprises of:

Le Pressoir - Two first floor bedrooms, both with en suite shower rooms and walk in wardrobes, bedroom 1 has an extra large bed and bedroom 2 has two single beds. On the ground floor there is an open plan living room, kitchen and dining area with large table and chairs for up to 17 guests.

La Maison du Puits - The first floor has a master bedroom with extra large bed and en suite shower room. There is also a bedroom with 3 single beds and sofa. On the ground floor there is a further bedroom with an extra large bed, kitchen/dining room with covered well, sitting room and a bathroom off the main stone staircase.

La Vieille Maison - The first floor has 3 bedrooms and two bathrooms, one bedroom has an extra large bed and en suite shower room and the other two bedrooms have 2 single bedrooms in each room and share a bathroom. On the ground floor there is a spacious kitchen/breakfast room and a large sitting room with comfortable sofas and a television with french and english channels.

Bedlinen and towels are supplied for all guests including swimming pool towels in the summer season. After stay cleaning is included in the cost of the stay.

Set in a quiet rural hamlet on the border of the Vienne and Loire within 3 kms from a town called Monts Sur Guesnes with a chateau, restaurant, bakers, convenience store, tourist office, bank, pharmacy etc. The nearby medieval towns of Richelieu, Chinon, Poitiers, Tours and Saumur offer excellent entertainment including chateaux, wine tours, fine dining, zoos, shopping, golf and the amusement parks of Futuroscope and Puy de Fou.
Make yourself comfortable in this vacation home, which features a private pool. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a microwave. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.

Fantastic property
We travelled to Princay as a family of 16, 8 adults and 8 children between 4 and 8. It had been very hard finding a configuration of properties that suited us and this was exactly what we needed. The properties are converted and done in a way that is sympathetic to their original use, the floors and walls weren't all even, but it added to the charm for us. The kitchens were well equipped and even had sharp knives for cooking, which can be quite unusual. The family loved the peace and quiet, it was safe for the children and the games room and pool worked well. Although towns and attractions are a drive away it was easy driving and the roads were very peaceful and clear. We really enjoyed our stay. The weather of course helped, but different family members were able to do different visits. Sam and Mark were very helpful, answering all our questions and would thoroughly recommend this property (s)

a Perfect place for a big family holiday
The setting with three separate areas (gîtes) but with the ability to have meals together both in a sheltered outside place and inside in the largest gîte was wonderful! Sam and Mark we're perfect hosts with just the right amount of friendly interaction. The fresh veg and Sparklung wine were lovely additions.plenty if towels made pool time great and the games room was a wonderful (and given the inclement weather) addition! A lovely place which has been restored to a high standard while keeping the atmosphere of a French country farm building. We would live to come again!

Perfect stay in rural France for 3 generation holiday
From the first moment we booked our holiday Sam was really helpful quickly responding to any questions we had . All 3 gites are well kitted out from comfy beds to everything you need in the kitchen to prepare food bought in the local markets . It’s location is so peaceful but only a 5 minute drive to the nearest shops. The games room was a great addition too . We will be back .

2 week family get together in the sun!
Having booked our holiday during lockdown, our family group of 16 people had 18 months to look forward to our stay in Princay and we were not disappointed! Mark and Sam were fabulous hosts, on hand when needed and full of useful advice about the local area. The gites are spacious and have been renovated to a very good standard, with little touches (such as welcome bubbly and delicacies) really appreciated. The pool was a godsend in the heat and we all enjoyed the games room. The gites are in a lovely quiet area and although we spent most of our time around the pool we did venture out to a couple local towns - we especially liked Chinon and Richelieu. Sam and Mark recommended a lake with watersports (about 30 minutes drive away) which was fantastic with inflatable "wipe out" games on and a beach with plenty of shade, we enjoyed it so much we went back for a second day! Our family group ranged in age from 6 - 75 and we all had a fabulous time. Highly recommended.

Au bon repos
La répartition des maisons est parfaite pour une grande famille ( nous étions 14) Tout ce qu’il faut que être tous ensemble et cependant garder une certaine intimité qui convient à certains. Les enfants ne s’ennuient pas, les ado peuvent rester dans leur coin pour se raconter leur vie et les adultes ont la paix. La salle de jeux convient à tous.

Séjour de rêve
Nous avons réuni notre famille pour Noël. La répartition en 3 maisons était idéale pour ne pas se gêner (et pour la distanciation!). Les maisons sont aménagées avec beaucoup de goût et des matériaux de qualité, tout est très soigné et confortable, et les hôtes à la fois discrets et extrêmement gentils.

Remarquable
Rien à redire sur le gîte, tout était parfait. Propreté irréprochable, Chambres, literies, salles de bains, séjours, cuisines impeccables. les plus : une salle de jeux avec billard, jeu de fléchettes, babyfoot, vraiment excellent pour les fins de soirées. très belle piscine (un peu chlorée!!) avec toute les commodités, la bienvenue après une journée de visites surtout avec le super temps que nous avons eu ce week-end. Pour finir, un grand merci aux propriétaires Sam et son mari : accueillants, sympathiques et à l'écoute du moindre problème. C'est un gîte que je recommande sans hésitation. Amicalement Thierry
