Neighbourhood highlights

The cottage is located in the tourist valley of the Loir (Loire Valley), in the small authentic village of Chapelle aux Choux, on the place of the historic Sainte-Geneviève church. Walkers, fishermen and water sports enthusiasts will find what they are looking for within a 4-minute walk: predator fishing spots, slipway for canoes, paddles and boats at the Pont de l'Ecole Eiffel. The lodging is the starting point to visit the castle of Lude located 5 minutes away and the zoo of the arrow which is very close. Travelers looking for peaceful nature will be delighted: On leaving the village, numerous hikes or bike rides in the forests, along the Loir and Fare rivers, or the Brule Choux stream. The small castles and manors located around the village center as well as the proximity of the archaeological site of Aubigné Racan and the Dolmen of Amenon will enhance the romantic and timeless walks to be made on small paths or on hiking trails (including GR 35 and 36, Loir cycle route n ° 47). The cottage is in the heart of a preserved natural area listed by the European Natura 2000 label. The beautiful lively towns of Tours, Le Mans, Angers and Saumur are less than 50 minutes away.
