If you’re looking for the most perfect location from which to experience the heart of France and explore Loire Valley, La Rocheliere is the place. We stayed for only one night on our way through to Bordeaux and wish we had booked for longer. The host and accommodations were remarkable. The property offers the most idyllic French experience in the heart of Loire Valley. There are 2 restaurants in the small town within walking distance of the residence that offer phenomenal french cuisine, so we found no need to go into Tours to find dinner. The breakfast prepared by our host was beautiful, with local breads, cheeses, and yogurts to enjoy. I will make it a point to return to the area just to stay at La Rocheliere again…this time for at least a week to explore Loire Valley properly from the perfect and most charming landing point!
