Gite de la Madeleine

Enjoy a relaxing break in nature for 2 or 4 at the Gîte de la Madeleine, in the heart of the Loire-Anjou-Touraine Regional Nature Park, in Gennes-Val-de-Loire, 18 km from Saumur.

This detached house, in a former farmhouse, has a breathtaking view over the Loire Valley and the Madeleine dolmen, a listed monument. A "wow" effect on nature guaranteed.

In the house, a lovely, light-filled living room with exposed beams, tiled floors and modern furniture adds to the cosy, convivial feel. In the morning, how about sipping your coffee or tea on the veranda while contemplating Mother Nature and her bounty? For your nights, down the corridor you'll find a light and airy bedroom with 2 single beds, a bathroom with bath, separate toilet and a wooded, flower-filled master bedroom with en suite shower room and walk-in shower.

An enclosed landscaped garden, as green as you could wish for, invites you to relax around the garden table in the shade... relax, beautiful discoveries await you - really - close by.

The Joreau pond and woodland are just 500 metres away. This regional nature reserve offers a unique place to walk and observe the flora and fauna, just outside Saumur. A footpath runs alongside the lake and through the forest. In autumn, the colours and light here are enchanting. Continue your discovery of the area by canoe, hot-air balloon or traditional boat trip on the Loire...

What about discovering the local specialities? Just a 4-minute drive away, the Auberge du Moulin de Sarré serves Fouées with all the trimmings and trout meunière washed down with Anjou Blanc. Enjoy your stay!
