Location Information: This self-catering cottage is just a short walk from the center of Old Chinon and the Chateau. Chinon is only a short drive to numerous other châteaux, including Azay-le-Rideau, Chenonceau, and the Royal Abbey of Fontevraud (now the Cultural Center for the West). The Cadre Noir equestrian centre is a short drive away in Saumur. The area is also rightly famous for the quality of its wines and the many vineyards are well worth the visit.
