This was our first time visiting this region and looking for something different, I stumbled onto…read morethis incredible Bed & Breakfast. Run by Americans, Gloria & Bob Belknap, this 18th century mansion has been meticulously decorated & maintained. Everything from the grounds to the rooms are beautiful. We were fortunate to stay in 2 different rooms, the George Sand & Madam de Lafayette. Both rooms, were unique and beautiful with gorgeous antiques. I only have a few pics and they don't do this place justice. Go to the website, their pics depict the place much better. Upon check-in, Gloria takes the time to sit down and get to know you. And then, she makes FANTASTIC recommendations of what to see & eat. She DID NOT lead us in the wrong direction. In fact, her dinner recommendation is still hands down my favorite meal over the years in France (she even called the proprietor for us to make the reservations). But it doesn't end there! Gloria graduated from La Varenne cooking school in Paris, so you can imagine how wonderful breakfast was every morning. Breakfast is held in the back of the mansion in the Conservatory, overlooking the backyard garden. Even my husband still thinks about those breakfast meals. The only negative I had with this place, was it was so beautiful that I worried about breaking things. Haha! We'd love to go back!

Ideally placed to make the most of all that the Loire Valley region has to offer, Chabris is a…read morebustling village on the banks of the lovely river Cher. The rental cottage or Gîte is a wing of the grand town-house constructed 150 years ago for a wealthy local family and incorporating a much older former nunnery building. B&B accommodation is in three generous bedrooms on the first floor, each with modern en-suite facilities. The house itself is found in a quiet street just a few minutes walk from the village centre with its ancient church, local shops, restaurants and lively Saturday market. A friendly community with plenty of activities for those who want them, Chabris is also a peaceful haven to rest and recuperate from the demands of modern living. While there is little need to venture out of the region, some visiters use the gite as a base for wider travel. With Paris just over 2 hours away by car or train, Chabris' central location makes it ideal for sightseeing throughout France.

We stayed here one night as part of a bike tour of the Loire Valley. Beautiful property and rooms,…read moreand the owners were very friendly and attentive. Breakfast was fantastic and the touring company also arranged for a homemade dinner made by Sonia, one of the owners, dining Al fresco in the garden. The property is about a mile from town so it was very nice to not have to ride the bikes back after cycling all day. Sonia's cooking was incredible and the wine served by her husband Thierry was also delicious, I highly recommend this B & B.
