La Voyette
Price: Bed and breakfast is 75€ per room per night including breakfast if you simply want and come and stay.
La Voyette is a tiny hamlet almost equidistance between Chinon and Richeleau. Its traditional houses spread out from a small triangular tree lined green and the only noises you will hear are the birds, some sheep, a donkey and the tractors as the farmers go about their daily tasks.
‘Chez Nous’ is a traditionally built stone house which has a large welcoming sitting room with an inglenook fireplace housing a wood burning stove. There is also a sunny breakfast room and many eating and sitting areas outside in the garden and grounds. Use of the swimming pool is also included.
Just a couple of rooms in the house were previously used by Grandmere Leone who lived here over sixty years ago. She was frequently visited by a number of devoted grandchildren – some of them many years later have very fond and happy memories of staying here with her in what was then a very humble abode. We have been told that there were as many as 12 children staying here as she also took in refugees just after the war.
Today we have sympathetically restored these rooms and converted others to create this charming chambre d’hote. Each room has its own shower and WC.
Continental breakfast can be taken in the sunny breakfast room, outside in the garden or in the sitting room close to the wood burning stove if the weather is inclement.
Staying in our chambre d’hote, here at La Voyette, gives you the freedom to enjoy this most romantic and historic region. When you return after a day of exploring there is plenty of space with places to sit and enjoy the peace.
The option of an evening meal eaten with us and other guests is available at an extra cost.
There is ample off-road parking and undercover storage if you bring your own bikes (although these are available for hire here)
