Typisches Landhaus - Luzé

Wow! Where do we start? The setting is absolutely idyllic. We stayed in the Porterie, next to the abbey. Cosy yet perfect. The house had every mod con we required yet still had all its rustic charm.

Our hosts made us feel like a part of the family from the moment we arrived yet were never intrusive in our holiday. They showed us around the historic setting and advised on all the surrounding points of interest. They were always on hand when we needed them.

We travelled with a thirteen year old and a six year old. The wifi connection meant we had a happy teen and the swimming pool, fully stocked with toys for the children, kept our six year old happy for hours.

Charming, relaxing, perfect!!

What an amazing family holiday we had this year! We were so fortunate to spot this beautiful listing on the homeAway website but be warned, even those fabulous photos and rave reviews could not do full justice to the magical place that is Labbaye de Bois Aubry!We at once felt so privileged to live for a week alongside the abbey in accommodation that was luxurious, spotless and extremely well equipped.The grounds were picture postcard perfect and the wider area was steeped in history and culture... a week was just not long enough to explore its riches.

We holidayed with 2 teenagers and a preteen , who spent their days swimming, exploring and absorbing more history than they had ever learned in school.

Last but not least we must give huge credit to our exceptional hosts Mark and Christine who brought the abbey to life for us and went above and beyond all expectations to make our stay the fabulous success that it was. To our new friends Mark an Christine, a huge Thank you from us all. For anyone considering a visit to Labbaye.....Go for it, you will certainly be delighted!

De gites zijn mooi verbouwd en van alle nodige zaken voorzien. De locatie is werkelijk fantastisch en de gastheer (Marc) en gastvrouw (Christine) zijn zeer vriendelijke en behulpzaam. Wij zijn er met 4 kinderen geweest en ook de kinderen hebben zich prima vermaakt. Er is alle ruimte voor hen om te spelen, ook het zwembad is heel mooi. Kortom, een aanrader!!!!

An absolute find! Really fell for the look of this place when it came up online, and booked as soon as knew it was available. Very happy to discover it in the middle of very peaceful countryside, but within easy access of a walled town, Richelieu. Traditional village restaurant a few minutes drive away.

Very welcoming and knowledgeable hosts in Marc and Christine, who have lovingly restored this gorgeous Abbaye. Nothing too much trouble, Happy to chat and assist whenever possible. Have now booked to return and would thoroughly recommend to those who are seeking a quiet base to discover this lovely area of France. Top tip - take a telescope, as the skies are so clear at night! And if you are travelling with children - the treetop rope course at St Benoit Aventure is definitely worth a visit!

Un cadre idyllique et un accueil très chaleureux pour une semaine de vacances agréable et reposante.
