Finding this place & trusting other reviewers on TripAdvisor gave us one THE best stays & homemade French dinner during our trip. My friends & I stayed with Adrian & Joke (the wonderful host) this past April (12th & 13th) as part of our Loire Valley/Normandy tour after running the Paris Marathon. Adrian & Joke live right in the middle... More

We had been driving for several days through Normandy when my family and I arrived at this wonderful small château. We were warmly greeted by our host Adrian at our car, who kindly helped us carry our luggage up to our room on the third floor. The room was quite large and nicely decorated with antique furniture and wooden floors.... More

Our stay was a true highlight of our six weeks in Europe. The owners rent 5 rooms in their beautiful chateau in the countryside outside the small town of Esvres in the Loire region. It's convenient to drive to the Loire chateaus and back for evening. The owners were very welcoming and helpful with suggestions for our tour. They serve... More

My family and I had the pleasure of staying at this Chateau on 18&19 November for a short weekend stay in the Loire. We stayed in the Gentilhomme room which was quite large and was comprised of three beds and a portable bed for our baby. The room was nicely made and the bathrooms were fully updated. During our stay... More

This Chateau is owned and run by a lovely couple who truly understand outstanding service. They are very warm and welcoming hosts and one feels as though they are visiting rather than renting a room. My husband and I stayed for two nights. The room we stayed in is nicely decorated and the bed was very comfortable. We had dinner... More

We really loved this place. The room we had (I believe it was called the Marquise) was quite large, and had a sunroom, private bath and semi-private terrace. The location was good for visiting chateaus and castles in the Loire Valley. Adrian and Joke were terrific hosts; Joke is a wonderful cook (be sure to eat at least one dinner... More

We stayed here for two nights recently. The chateau is wonderful - we stayed in the Empire room which was on the ground floor with private access to the terrace outside. Adrian and Joke are wonderful hosts - both extremely friendly, interesting and helpful with recommendations about the local area. The food cooked by Joke was delicious and they went... More

We recently stayed at Chateau de la Villaine for 5 nights with our two young children. Our family room was very spacious and beautifully appointed but family friendly. The views from our room over the delightful grounds were an added bonus. The children were free to roam around the grounds and house and the delightful Joke went out of her... More

We received such a warm welcome from Adrian and Joke and this continued for the entirety of our stay. We enjoyed two fantastic dinners cooked by the very talented Joke and the matching wines selected by Adrian were superb and perfectly matched! Great tips from Adrian made for great day trips throughout the valley. The Chateau gives you the perfect... More
