La Conciergerie at Le Chateau

Nearest town: Tours

'La Conciergerie' is the former Gate Keepers Lodge at the entrance to 'Chateau de La Celle-Guenand' and sleeps up to 6 people comfortably in two adjoining bedrooms. Ideal for a couple or a family. There is a well equipped kitchen and modern bathroom.

You'll need a car to explore the area, but the lodge is within easy reach of other famous Chateaux, 12th-century Romanesque Churches and the Loire vineyards. The perfect base for your holiday in France!

There are many activities in the area, from fishing, golfing, and cycling, to antique hunting or visiting arts & craft centres. Or you can simply spend the time sampling the many tasty local food & wine specialties.

We invite you to share in our unique way of life on offer in the Loire Valley.

La Conciergerie has two adjoining bedrooms on the first floor. The main bedroom has a 'king-sized' bed and the second bedroom has two single beds, with the option of an additional bunk-bed (for 2) if required. Also on the first floor, the bathroom is modern and has a large walk-in shower, vanity with basin, and toilet.

On the ground floor you'll find a very well equipped kitchen, and open plan sitting room and dinning area.

[Note: Within the grounds of the chateau, we offer a total of four charming self-contained Gites. There are two 2 bedroom and two 1 bedroom gites available all with the conveniences of modern life. Each Gites comes with a kitchen which is equipped with an oven, hob, microwave, and utensils. The dinning area has a table and chairs, and the sitting area has a sofa and chairs. Laundry on-site.

Attractions

This area of Centre val-de-Loire is known as the Touraine du Sud and is one of the jewels of country France. The region is famous for its many beautiful castles and abbeys.

Our idyllic French village of La Celle-Guenand was formed in about the 11th century and consists of half-timbered houses, a Jewry, and a Roman Church with three naves. The local museum houses over 6500 tools, instruments, machines and ancient artifacts which represent over 130 traditional professions.

Nearby is the chateau de Le Grand-Pressigny with the Museum of Prehistory (pictured), which makes it an interesting place to visit. Famous French philosopher, Rene Descartes was born in 1596 in a village a short distance away - today named after him. In Loches you'll see where the King of France lived during Joan of Arc times.

Slightly further afield you can discover the Renaissance chateaux that line the river Loire. Many have been restored to their former regal glory. Famous castles in the area include chateau d'Amboise, Chenonceau, Azay-le-Rideau, Langeais, and Villandry. There are also several villages of outstanding beauty and of historical significance, like Angles-sur-l'Anglin, Angers, Chinon, and Tours.
