About this property

Pretty gite in peaceful hamlet, by La Chartre-sur-le-Loir, Vallée du Loir

La Petite Grange is set in its own grounds in a small peaceful hamlet. It has been lovingly renovated to a high standard and provides a comfortable and relaxing environment to enjoy the surrounding countryside and an ideal base from where you can explore all the attractions the region has to offer.

La Petite Grange is located in-between Le Mans and Tours and a few minutes away from the lovely villages of Lhomme - the capital of Jasnieres, the local white wine, and La Chartre-sur-le-Loir - famous for its connections to the 24 hour Le Mans race and it's brocantes.

The pretty cottage has a relaxing patio area overlooking the enclosed garden and field and valley behind. It's the ideal area in which to unwind during the warm weather whilst enjoying a barbecue and a glass of the local wine.

Inside, La Petite Grange is cosy and welcoming, you'll feel right at home the instant you walk through the door.

The kitchen has all that you need for your visit, whether you wish to cook up a gastronomic meal or just warm-up a pizza!

The living/dining room is very comfortable with a sofa and two armchairs in front of the woodburner (logs supplied). The TV has french channels but also a DVD player with an extensive film collection. A dining table, big enough for 6 adults overlooks the patio and garden.

Upstairs there are the two bedrooms, a double and a twin, with good quality beds, made and ready for your slumber. The modern shower room and WC is situated in-between the two bedrooms. Towels are provided as is extra linen should it be required.

There is also a wooden cot in the main room that can also act as a very small bed for a toddler. Baby equipment, changing mat, small baby bath etc are provided, as is a high chair for meal times. A travel cot is also provided.

Electricity is included in the fee, (a small contribution will be requested however for the charging of electric cars, please consult us).

The owners, Jim (English) and Ophélie (French), live next door and are readily available to provide any assistance, advice or help if you require it.

The gîte has been officially approved and rated 3 stars by the French Tourist Board.

Perfekter Aufenthalt
Die Ferienwohnung ist perfekt für Paare und kleine Familien zugleich. Sie liegt in absoluter französischer Idylle, weit weg von Straße und Ortschaft, in einem Seitenarm einer kleinen Siedlung. Dort erreicht man perfekte Ruhe. Die Ferienwohnung ist sehr gemütlich und bietet alles was man braucht. Der Garten ist eingezäunt und separiert. Man ist für sich. Die Gastgeber sind herzlich und sehr diskret. Sicher nicht unser letzter Aufenthalt dort. Aus dieser Ortschaft lassen sich die Schlösser der Loire besichtigen und in der Umgebung sind alle Läden für das tägliche Leben gut erreichbar. Abschließend: ein wunderbarer Klein-Ode in der Natur. Wer Rückzug und Ruhe sucht findet es hier, Familien mit max. zwei Kindern finden hier ebenfalls eine sichere und heimische Ferienhaus-Umgebung.

Sehr hübsches Ferienhaus
Sehr schöner Aufenthalt. Das Haus ist gemütlich und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, es fehlte an nichts! Toll auch für unsere 2 Hunde: das ganze Grundstück ist eingezäunt. Jim und Ophelie sind super Gastgeber: bei unserer Ankunft fanden wir eine komplette Frühstücksausstattung vor, sowie eine Flasche Wein. Danke nochmals dafür!

Havre de paix
Gîte plein de charme, des propriétaires à l’écoute et forts sympathiques, accueil chaleureux. Avons passé une semaine au calme ; gîte confortable et plein de charme ; idéalement situé pour visites culturelles et courses. Nous recommandons ce gîte. Tout petit bémol : les toilettes au 1re étage, il faut donc être alertes…

About the host

Hosted by James Marchant

Host profile image
Jim's a Brit, Ophélie is French and their two daughters are Franglais.
We have been living in France for 12 years and whilst Ophélie works in Le Mans, Jim works from home, next door to the gîte, so will always be available if any help is ever required.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property shortly after we bought our house next door. We realised straight away that it would make the perfect little gîte.

We fell in love with the area straight away. The location is great for travelling back to the UK and it has a nice mix of rurality whilst not being too far from the big towns of Tours and Le Mans.

It is a peaceful part of France but within easy driving distance of the more popular tourist areas of Normandy, Brittany and the Loire Valley. And that's not to say there aren't plenty of things to see and do locally!

The gîte is situated in a very small hamlet and our neighbours are very friendly yet suitably discreet!
