Les Saules

Why stay here ...

This friendly site in the heart of the Loire Valley is ideal for nature lovers thanks to its environmentally-conscious owners Laurent and Isabelle. There is abundant wildlife to be discovered on foot or on the cycle paths and over 50 species of birds can be spotted on the nature and fitness trail. Guests can also learn about the bees kept in the hives on the site's land and even buy the fresh honey from the onsite shop.

The facilities are of a high standard and include a pleasant pool complex (with accessible lift), a petanque area and a restaurant serving traditional food. There’s also a kids’ club to entertain younger children in high season.

Get out and about and explore the Chateaux of the Loire in a different way. The site offers motorcycles hire direct from reception, and can also recommend tours for you, so that you can take advantage of the small back roads to discover the castles, vineyards and some of the most beautiful villages in France.

The majestic Cheverny Castle in the village of Cheverny is a leisurely walk or cycle away from the site and Les Saules' central location makes it perfect for visits to the other most popular chateaux of the region including Chambord and Chaumont which can be reached on the 550kms of cycle paths "Châteaux à Vélo " The site sells reduced price tickets at the reception tro save you queuing.

There is also the fabulous Zoo de Baauval nearby and canoeing/Kayaking on the river Loire can be organised through reception.
