Welcome to the Chateau de Bournand which is a family castle, located in a small village near Chinon and the Loire Valley Castles, opened all year long.
The property is in a beautiful and quiet 9 acres park with outdoor pool and pool-house.

You can do lots of different activities in the area, for any age: golf courses, canoeing, horse riding or cycling.

I live on the property in the main house and I am at the disposal of my guests if they need any help or information during their holiday.
I also provide breakfast or dinners upon request, with home made food, fruits and vegetables from my garden, with extra charge.

Very nice chestnut cottage
A very nice place! We travelled with 2 teenagers so both the pool and tabletennis were perfect entertainment when not out exploring the surroundings. Location is great with a short drive to wineries, canoing and beautiful towns and castles. Marie was a very welcoming host with good suggestions for places to visit.

Spacious cottage with comfortable bed with good WiFi.
Host kind. Difficult to find location without internet. The steps upstairs were very steep and narrow - fine for us but could be tricky for children or those with mobility issues. No tv. Felt like the end of the season as flowers in the lovely pots outside were dead. Spacious property with large garden with interesting trees.

Wonderful holiday home with beautiful gardens
Marie our host made us welcome from the moment we arrived and offered up suggestions on places to visit and restaurants to eat at. The property was spacious, beautifully furnished and well equipped (the large fridge was particularly well appreciated). There were other guests staying but we had sufficient space and privacy. The grounds of the chateau are extensive and were great for our dog to explore. The swimming pool, just a 3 min walk in a secluded part of the grounds, was a great to use at the end of hot day. The village is pretty although sadly the boulangerie has shut down so we had to drive to the next town for our morning croissants and bread. Overall a great place to stay. Thank you!

Lovely stay in Bournand
My family & I had a lovely stay here in a gite on the site of a chateaux. There was another gite adjacent to ours and one shared pool 5 minutes walk through the vast gardens. Marie was very helpful, booking a table reservation in advance and meeting us on our arrival and showing us around. Outdoor table/chairs/loungers/bbq just for our gite and shared extensive gardens. Bournand is very quiet and only one boulangerie and one restaurant open. Everything else is a 10-20minute drive away. Chinon 20mins, great kayaking here & old town to explore. Montsoreau 20mins lovely town to visit. Thank you for a lovely stay.
