Maurice is a very welcoming host who gave us plenty of tips to discover Chinon. The rooms and the house have been tastefully renovated. We were able to make the most of our weekend getaway.

Superb house in a dream city. Run by a charming young man, full of sweetness and kindness. The decoration is superb, the only regret is having to leave the next day. I hope to return.
