We spent a week here using it as a base for cycling all over the region visiting the vinyards and chateaux. The charming bedroom was exactly as I hoped (you can rarely say that even if you have seen the photographs) and a lovely place to come back to after a swim in the pool. Sadly we only ate there one evening - what a pity the food was excellent and the host quietly charming!

We actually had a confirmed booking with Venere to stay at the nearby Chateua de Brou in Noyant de Touraine. When we arived there was no room for us and a blame game commenced with the hotel blaming the agency etc. Thankfully the hotel managed to get us a room (it was a bank holiday with Parisienes down in droves) in the nearby Les Molieres in Trogues which we reluctantly accepted. When you book a Chateau you only very reluctantly settle for a B&B, especially one at e170 a night, e20 more than the chateau. While we didn't get the opportunity to compare the rooms, I can't imagine the one we missed out on being a patch on the suite we ended up in at Les Molieres. (I am reliably informed that they have cheaper rooms available for earlier bookers.) The suite was fabulous, spacious, modern and beautifully decorated to satisfy the most discerning taste. While it was the wrong time of year to swim, it opened up onto the gardens and pool. The en suite had a double sink and large walk-in shower. We dined in (dinner is served in a large open plan lounge/dining room) and after a couple of glasses of champagne and a fine meal cooked and served by the family we had forgotten the earlier stresses of the day. The bed was fabulously comfortable and a hearty continental breakfast (sounds like an oxymoron but it was excellent and plentiful) sent us off in good spirits.

Very expensive for what is a bed and breakfast and breakfast that is charged on top of the room rate and was served with mouldy fruit.
Also if you don't like cats or dogs I would avoid this and if you like polite service give it a miss. The first two mornings we got hardly a word as breakfast was put down ,then on the last day they appeared to be completely different people and were a bit more civilised.
This could be so nice if the service was better and it was closer to somewhere to eat in the evenings as it is fairly out there in the middle of nowhere

We stayed in the 'Ethnic' room - lovely decor, great bed and spacious bathroom.
Beautiful building and surrounding garden. Wish we had more time to spend here.
