Beautifully renovated cottage in a great location
We stayed at this excellent cottage for one week with our older teenage daughters. There was plenty of room for the 4 of us and more than enough for 6-8 people. The property is beautifully renovated and everything is provided that you could want. Even a couple of bikes to pop to the boulangerie in the morning. The cottage has no neighbouring properties for several hundred meters, so you were not disturbed at all. The location is great for exploring the region and taking walks through the country. Chambord is only 10 mins away by car and is a must visit. The pool was excellent. Very clean and ideal temperature and we used it a lot to relax and unwind. I recommend this rental to anyone wanting to explore the region and recommend our hosts, Melanie and Pierre very highly who were very diligent and helpful to make sure everything was as it should be. Thank you from Ian Ferris and the family.

Peaceful stay
This property is the best we have rented! The house is in a very peaceful location down a lane. It is very comfortable and extremely well equipped for 2 families, each family can be seperate in the upstairs or downstairs bedrooms with a large bathroom each. The bedrooms are very comfortable, they are large with good mattresses and linen, we slept very well as it was so quiet. The kitchen and living areas are very spacious for dining and sitting together. The interior decoration is really charming, we loved all the baskets, there is a lady making them at Bracieux market. The pool is wonderful, it's warm, well maintained with plenty of loungers and chairs. The garden is very spacious, with seating in many spots to enjoy the views, we saw a lot of birds and dear in the field the pool overlooks. Plenty of walks from the house into the countryside and it's a quick walk into town, we used the bikes provided too. Plenty to explore nearby with many chateaux and medieval towns. We enjoyed visiting places as far as Loches and Vendome as well as towns nearby, not to mention the numerous chateaux. Thank you Pierre and Melanie. We really enjoyed our stay at Le Montillon!

A well kept property exactly as advertised - surrounded by beautiful countryside and only a 15 minute gentle cycle ride to the local shops - 3 bikes provided which was perfect for us. A great base to explore the Loire.

Stay here! This cottage is beautiful inside and out. There are not enough glorious adjectives to describe. The property has everything you need and more. It is well situated between Cheverny and Chambord. We did an afternoon trip to Amboise (within a hour drive). Great place to unwind after Paris. Seriously, stop looking and rent this place.

Wonderful stay in a magnificent area
Our overall stay was great and we will definetly come back because we felt at home. We loved this little charming house in the countryside and only 10min from one of the most beautiful castle, Chambord. The house was located in the middle of the fields. The inside was very cosy and welcoming. The outdoor was a great area for our children to have fun and run around. The house was very well equipped for entertainment (board games, children books, wild♮e books, novels, children/ baby toys, bbq, outdoor games, bikes) and the kitchen was full of useful appliances. It felt like a home. The owners were lovely and very passionate about their region and nature. We enjoyed talking to them. During or stay, we went to visit several castles ( Cheverny, Blois, Chenonceaux,...), a sheep farm and the zoo at Beauval. We also shopped for groceries from the local market (on Sunday) where all the regional producers were present. We found amazing dairy products ( creme fraiche, cheese..), terrines, bread, honey.

This property was as charming as it looks.
The location is peaceful and relaxiing but close enough to a pleasant village to get groceries and supplies (a car is an absolute necessity)and within easy drives of many of the most well known chateaus The house and the garden are full of lovely little details (little metal birds in the flower beds, teddy bears in the bedroom, etc.) The kitchen is modern and well stocked and the living room is very comfortably. We would have loved to have time to stay for a few more days. It would have been helpful to have detailed instructions for the washer, stove, etc. in English. There are so many differences in applicances (esp. European vs US) that we would have been more comfortable with instructions in English. And a word of caution for people with any mobility issues - the staircase to the 2 upstairs bedrooms is challenging and there is no toilette upstairs.

Excellent house in a beautiful place
This is a fantastic house, equipped with everything you can think of. It is located in the middle of picturesque fields and pastures, at the edge of the small town Bracieux, where you can get everything you need at the bakeries and the small supermarkets. The next larger supermarket is about 4 miles away. And it is smack in the middle of all the chateaux and old towns. The owners are super friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful time at the house!

Ein perfekter Urlaub!
Wenn man Ruhe braucht und mit sich und der Welt im Reinen sein möchte, ist dies der perfekte Ort zur Entspannung!! Dieses Haus ist von Mélanie und ihrem Mann so liebevoll und wertig eingerichtet, dass man auf nichts verzichten muss. Hier liegt die Perfektion unter anderem im Detail - vom Adapterstecker bis zum Spülschwamm, von Einkaufskörben bis hin zu der liebevoll gestalteten Wilkommensmappe! Die Umgebung ist wunderschön, wirklich viele Schlösser sind in unter einer Stunde Fahrtzeit zu erreichen und das kleine Dorf Bracieux bietet alles, was man so täglich braucht. Der Pool ist jedoch - zumindest für uns - das Highlight gewesen....groß, schön und mit einer atemberaubenden Aussicht!! Chère Mélanie, merci beaucoup pour ces jours , qui étaient merveilleuses !!!! A la prochaine....

Superbe propriété avec localisation idéale
Nous avons passé une semaine dans la maison de Mélanie en famille avec des enfants en bas âge. La maison est bien adaptée aux familles (jouets, chambres décorées avec soins, équipement bébé, balançoire et jardin qui ont fait le bonheur de nos enfants). La piscine chauffée à 29 degrés est grande et située dans un cadre bucolique sans aucun vis à vis. D'autre part, la maison a une localisation ideale: à la fois au calme sans aucun voisin autour, mais à proximité de nombreux châteaux, et 45 minutes du zoo de Beauval. En résumé, nous avons passé une excellente semaine et recommandons chaudement la maison de Mélanie, qui a été très accueillante.

Wonderful Easter vacation
The cottage is spacious but at the same time cozy and perfectly kept. The location is ideal for visiting all of the chateaux in the area (some even by bicycle). The pool was not open yet because the weather was still too cold but we very much enjoyed the garden, bbq, pétanque and badminton…we will definitely return when it is warm enough to swim! The hosts were very welcoming and kind.
