Fantastisch huisje

Fantastisch Frans huisje, perfect ingericht en van alle gemakken voorzien. Lieve Engelse mensen. Locatie ligt afgelegen maar is prachtig om te fietsen.

Séjour agréable, calme et reposant.

Un gîte très propre et bien aménagé avec un joli jardin au bord de la Creuse. Les propriétaires sont très agréables, dommage qu'ils ne parlent pas français, la barrière de la langue ne nous a pas permis de communiquer. Un petit reproche malgré tout, c'est que sur l'annonce Abritel, la photo du gîte ne fait pas état que l'autre aile du bâtiment est un autre gîte et il y a trop de proximité entre les deux et pas vraiment d'intimité ; heureusement que les autres locataires, anglais eux aussi, étaient très sympathiques et non bruyants. Là encore, barrière de la langue, dommage. Il suffirait juste de mettre des bacs ou des pots avec des arbustes pour avoir un semblant d'intimité. Sinon très bon séjour, calme et reposant.

Lovely little house by the river

Had a wonderful week at la glycine with great weather. This lovely little farmhouse is very well equipped with everything you need and very clean. Dawn and john are very accommodating and extremely friendly, would highly recommend this property for a restful stay by the riverside and its lovely big garden. A big thank you to Dawn and john for the lovely welcome pack on our arrival.

Como en casa

Nos alojamos en la casita que nos proporcionaron John y Dawn Carter durante una semana, es un lugar muy cuidado y con todo lujo de detalles para hacer la estancia cómoda como si estuvieras en tu propia casa. Gracias John y Dawn por vuestras atenciones y hospitalidad.

Superbe gîte, très bien équipé.

Nous étions qu'un couple, mais le gîte est excellent pour une famille. Bel accueil avec visite des lieux. Nos hôtes nous ont préparé un petit panier d'accueil avec l'essentiel (vin, pain et fromage) en cas d'arrivée tardive. Le gîte est superbement équipé, ce qui permet de faire du lavage. Charmant jardin à proximité de la rivière.

Calme et verdure

Gīte parfait pour un sėjour d'une semaine avec nos deux enfants à la découverte des sites touristiques de la rėgion et pour notre première visite au Futuroscope. Gīte parfaitement ėquipé et très propre, beau et grand jardin en bord de Creuse pour les amoureux de la nature et de la pêche. Propriétaires discrets et attentionnés.

Lovely gite, well equipped and comfortable with an amazing riverside garden.

The gite is pretty, comfortable and very well equipped. Our two young girls loved the fantastic garden leading down to the river Creuse, and the friendly chickens! The gite is located in an attractive village with a nice cafe and some interesting caves to visit only a few minutes stroll away. We also visited Chenonceau, Chinon and a lake beach, all less than an hour's drive. Dawn was a great host, welcoming and helpful. We hope to return!

Tranquil Holiday Home In Touraine

Clean, comfortable well equipped property with friendly on site owners. Well located in the countryside to the south of Tours, close to the wine route and the motorway network a few kilometres away allows for easy access.

Gîte calme dans un petit village calme

Des vacances reposantes dans ce petit gîte très bien aménagé : cuisine équipée avec un petit coin pour la télé et le canapé, une chambre et salle de bain à l'étage, et une autre chambre et salle de bain sous mezzanine. Tout était très propre à notre arrivée avec en prime un panier gourmand et le frigo contenant quelques indispensables (lait, jus d'orange, beurre, fromage). Le terrain commun aux propriétaires et aux locataires du gîte est grand avec La Creuse qui le borde (totalement sécurisé pour les petits). Des tables permettent d'aller passer un moment pour jouer à l'ombre... Nous avons visité les alentours en allant 2 jours sur le futuroscope, une après-midi dans une chèvrerie, un jour sur les châteaux de la Loire et pour terminer une immersion dans les caves troglodytes de Saint Rémy qui valent le détours ! Ajoutez à ces découvertes le calme de ce village et de la maison de John et Dawn !! De merveilleuses vacances, à recommander... A noter que nous étions les seuls locataires (l'autre gîte n'était pas occupé). A noter aussi qu'il faut un peu parler et comprendre l'anglais car les propriétaires parlent peu le français (mais ça n'a pas gêné le déroulement de nos vacances).

Nice and quiet stay

A relaxing 3 days in a very clean cozy cottage. Nice and comfortable upstairs room for the kids. We couldn't enjoy the garden and river banks due to the rain, but this was an enjoyable countryside break. Owners very welcoming and nice. A place we would easily come back to.

About the host

Hosted by Dawn Cater

Host profile image
We moved here in 2014 from Berkshire in England to run our Gite business, we have 3 grown up children who live in the UK, who love coming to visit now and again. We are here on site along with Dawn's father.

Why they chose this property

The property is in the lovely peaceful village of St.Remy sur Creuse, the house and the Gites have lots of original features and character but have been modernised to give you all the home comforts you will be used to. We fell in love with the river at the end of our garden which is ideal for fishing, picnics or just relaxing.

What makes this property unique

The river at the end of our garden which is ideal for fishing, picnics or just relaxing, also the unique situation of the property being in a lovely traditional country village but with towns, shops, bars, restaurants, banks etc within a short distanced drive. An ideal mix of rural countryside with access to all the amenities you could need.
