October 11, 2009.
We just returned from a seven day holiday in the Loire Valley staying at this beautiful apartment in Amboise. The apartment was perfect in every way and situated right at the base of the wall of Amboise's famous castle. The apartment was very spacious and well equipped, very comfortable and very quiet at all times. We were met upon arrival by Karine who greeted us with a bottle of sparkling wine. Karine was very informative and provided us with very helpful information on the Loire's Chateaus. Amboise itself is a great central location to explore the Loire Valley, as most major sights are within an hours drive. Within a two minute walk from the apartment you find numerous shops, cafe's, restaurants and pizzeria's, as well as some beautiful walks along the river. Also within a fifteen minute drive is the famous wine village of Vouvray which has some great wine caves for tastings. We will definitely return.

| My husband, our 10 year-old daughter and I truly enjoyed our stay at Villa Concorde in Amboise. The apartment is perfectly located to explore both Amboise and the Loire Valley, and was nicely set up for our family. Thierry and Karine were very helpful (and spoke perfect English!) with arranging toursit activities. We especially enjoyed the canoe trip down the Loire from Chouzy to Amboise. We would definately recommend this apartment. |

Dear Karine and Thierry,
My husband Vladimir and I, and our 16 year old niece thoroughly enjoyed our stay at your lovely apartment in Amboise.
First of all, Amboise is, as you had said, perfectly situated for easy day trips to the chateaux in the region – we managed all the major ones and several less known ones (at least to us) that we enjoyed at least as much as the famous ones.
Your apartment is so well appointed, with so many nice aspects to it, that it really made it nice to come home after a day spent viewing castles. It is spacious and airy, perfect for our little family unit – plenty of privacy too. The sitting room in particular made for a very nice place to have breakfast and relax. The snazzy bathroom and shower is terrific. We appreciated getting tips from you, particularly for some of the nice restaurants in the countryside. The apartment is perfectly located – hard to get closer to Amboise castle than across the street! – and easy parking too. We found it easy to get to by train from Paris.
We will enthusiastically recommend the apartment to anyone planning a trip to the beautiful Loire region. Thanks much for your friendly and caring hospitality!

Hi Thierry:
We are still savouring our time in the Loire; it was truly magical. We are talking to our friends about the area, Amboise and you and Karine as hosts.
Several thoughts on your great apartment.
1. Ideal location for a first trip to the Loire.
2. TGV worked fine for us from CDG. Can purchase tickets
easily on the internet through Rail Europe.
3. We found the Alamo car rental the best buy on the internet
with pickup and return at Saint Pierre de Corps with the TGV
stop right there.
4. The combination washer and drier is a real plus. This means that
you can just put in your clothes and go off for the day. In addition,
it means that you can bring less clothes the lighten the 33 kg luggage
limit on AF.
Thank you very much for communicating in English with us; this was particularly helpful in making the reservations with you for the apartment . Nous aimons tres bien la France!!!
Best regards and good luck with the new apartment,

We did indeed have the most wonderful holiday and our time in France was my favourite.It was all rather like living in a calendar - spectacular scenery and places to visit.
We did so enjoy our time in your apartment and it was everything we hoped for and more. It is actually bigger than appears in the photos on your site which was very welcome. It is a great location and you have thought of everything.Champagne was lovely - thank you. The L'Occitane products were a nice touch and so was having a real hairdryer. It is so hard to pack these things now with all the resrictions it was lovely to have them to use.
So good luck with it all - I am sure you will have no trouble being fully booked. I will recommend you to all I know.
All the best and thank you again.

While in France my husband and I stayed at many places. You begin to get tired of the same type of room and start to long for the comforts of home. Thierry and Karine provided us that home like space. We were able to stay within yards from the Castle Amboise and the Loire River. We were within a block from the center of town.
The apartment itself was well furnished and well designed. We had our own kitchen with all the needed gear, an ultra comfy couch set, and great picture window through the whole apartment. The bed was super soft and I loved the decorating and bed spread so much I had to have one just like it. The bathrooms as well as the entire apartment were spick and span clean.
Another great feature as if this wasn’t enough, a washer and dryer. By this point in your travels it’s nice to not have to hustle about trying to find a Laundromat. We had a great stay and plan on many return visits.

We had a great time staying at VillaConcorde in Amboise.
Karine and Thierry have done a great job setting up the apartment, it was beautiful.
The extra touches such as the breakfast foods, chocolate!!, and bottle
of champagne were much appreciated.
The kitchen is very well equipped, there was even coffee and a French
Press coffee maker, nice!!
The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was beautiful with the new
high quality fixtures.
A combination washer / dryer was very useful as well.
Parking was convenient, nearby, and free.
I will look forward to visiting here again!
Merci Beau Coup!!!!
