Fabulous stay!

We stayed for two weeks in this lovely house. Our ages range from 9 to 62! The highlights for us were the pool and garden. The houses are well appointed, with comfy beds and rooms (although an extra loo would have been useful) and there are lovely large sitting rooms although we hardly used them as we were outside all the time. But the reason the pool and garden made the holiday for us was the size of them. The garden is enormous, almost sprawling! And the large trees give plenty of shade. The pool is a good size and allows a decent length for those of us who want to do a few lengths rather than just lounge. We were spoilt for choice with places to sit and our two weeks went by in a flash. Would absolutely recommend!

Awesome chateau/ Landhouse with great historical details

We spend a week with three families in Gilbourg (6 adults and 6 kids (6months - 4 years old) and had a great time. The entrance is magnificent and the garden even better. We very much enjoyed eating in the garden and sitting around the fireplace when kids went to sleep. All rooms have been decorated with great taste. Only thing is we bunped our head many times at the low entrance of the kitchen and living room, but that is part of the charm for the property. Swimming pool also fenced well, so kids could play in the garden. Overall wonderful place and excellent location for wine tours and cycling. Definitely will book again.

A wonderful stay in a unique property

We were a group of 13 from 3 families with a range of ages, adults and children. The house was absolutely lovely. Beautiful structure, with a moat, circular tower room and attractively decorated. The fact that there were separate buildings didn't really matter to us though some groups might find it a bit tricky. The house was extremely well equipped with ample cookware and utensils. The pool and huge grounds were fabulous and we loved seeing lizards, bats and even water voles. It is extremely peaceful and rural - we did some great star gazing at night time. The children also loved the table tennis and courtyard area for playing games. The only thing we thought might have been useful would have been a little bit more information about local attractions eg a few tourist leaflets. We had to visit 3 nearby tourist information offices before we found one that was open - it is a very quiet area. That is what we loved about it though so it isn't really a criticism! We would recommend kayaking on the Loire (we started from Les-Ponts-de-Ce) and also enjoyed visiting a local vineyard for a degustation - delicious! Further afield we visited Puy du Fou, a huge historical theme park with live shows from different periods of history, which was very interesting. Overall we had a truly wonderful week in Gilbourg and wished we could have stayed for longer.

Simply stunning home, grounds and pool we're the icing on the cake!

We were a large party of 14 including children and grandparents and the house had more than enough room to fit us all in very comfortably. The house was fully equipped with all amenities necessary, the bbq and ping pong table were a big hit! A few more directions regarding taking care of the pool would have been good though! The area was very quiet and a car is necessary, not much was open during August so be prepared to travel for a meal out! Over all we enjoyed a fantastic family holiday and will recommend Gilbourg to everyone!
