Australians visiting the Loire Valley
|
We are lucky enough to have many guests staying at 'Les
Balcons' from Australia, normally as part of a larger trip
that usually includes Paris. We have a page dedicated to
arriving in Paris and travelling on to the Loire Valley
here...
and are happy to advise you on any other matter with regards
to your journey from Australia to the Loire Valley and your
itinerary while you are with us. Not keen on driving from
Paris? talk
to us about alternatives.

Thanks to Pauline & Jim for settling us into
this lovely, quirky holiday home, it is full of
charm! We also found it very comfortable and
well equipped. The pool at Descartes was great
for children plus the local river 'beaches' were
good. It was a good jumping off point for
visiting Villandry (beautiful
gardens), Chenonceau (beautiful
architecture and lovely interior) and
Azay-le-Rideau. The local prehistory museum at Le
Grand-Pressigny was
well worth a visit - very extensive and well
thought out for children. Thank you for a
lovely sta

Thank you for letting us stay in you little 'chateau' in
Barrou. It is delightful in every way - we thoroughly
enjoyed eating in the courtyard - dinner, cheese,
baguette and champagne and being sung to by the the
blackbirds. We enjoyed our first evening meal at the
local restaurant - recommend their pizzas. Your
wonderful hospitality and beautiful home is something we
will always remember. We dream to return one day, with
our best wishes."

We have had a very pleasant week in what has turned out to
be the hottest week of the year so far. The house is
comfortable and well equipped, thank you and after a couple
of weeks in much smaller places we enjoyed the space. Thanks
for the strawberries - what a crop you have! The cherries
will be ready to take over in a week or two. Trips to
Chenonceau and Villandry were long days but worth it to see
these two very spectacular places. More locally Loches,
Chedigny (with all its roses) La
Roche Posay, Angles-surl'Anglin all
had their attractions. We were grateful for the
recommendations to restaurants Le Gerbe d'Or (Loches) and
Chez Grand Ma (Le Grand-Pressigny) and are happy to commend
them to future travellers. It is pleasant to explore the
local area, the small roads, the villages and hamlets that
are so typically French. Thanks again Jim & Pauline.
