Lovely 300 year old house. The house is definitely quirky with wood beams and angles to work around upstairs. We stayed over New Years and had a great time. Marie is very interesting and communicative and suggested the Tours Opera for New Year’s Eve which was fun! She is very helpful and gave us suggestions for where to shop, visit etc. Winter in France was a very different experience for us. The Chateaux were lit up and decorated along with shops and streets. A great time to go!

Had a lovely time staying with Marie. She was super helpful and welcoming with lots of good advice from places to visit to cooking a meal for us one evening and introducing us to some local wines. Great place to explore the Loire and Touraine region. Car a must but easy access to Ambois, Tours, Chinon etc. superb bakery in Savonniere 5 mins away by car.

My husband and I and his two sisters stayed for a week. Marie, the owner, lives next door and was a great host. Very friendly and helpful with suggestions on things to do, and always responsive when we had a request. The house is quirky and different, nicely renovated and Marie has decorated it with some lovely and unusual pieces. We had a great stay and would absolutely recommend it. We hope to be back one day.

We were two senior couples exploring the Loire region in particular its chateaux. Marie was extremely helpful and gave us very useful information about the region and what it had to offer. Her house was very welcoming. We had ample room for the four of us and the kitchen was well-stocked. We would highly recommend Marie’s house for a quiet stay in a convenient location just outside of Tours while exploring the Loire Valley.

This is a unique old home, restored with love and flair. Marie has artfully decorated the home and it showcases her talent as an artist and designer. The setting is peaceful and beautiful. The roses are gorgeous! The accommodations are very nice with beautifully made beds and nice towels. We did have a little snafu with our reservation but Marie was able to come up with a good solution to everyone’s satisfaction.

Berthany is an almost island cradled between the Loire and the Cher , and Maries rose covered home is the perfect peaceful country retreat. Judt a short distance from historic Savonniere and Villandry it make an ideal base for exploring the Loire Valley, its chateaux and gardens. The house was comfortable and very well equipped and having a charming hostess like Marie next door made all the difference to our stay. We were briefed with suggestions for places to go, offered delicious fig tarts and quiches, enjoyed lively discussions and sharded an outing to nearby Tours together something we would not have done on our own, One of our favourite stays during five months in Europe.

Firstly, we received a very warm welcome from Marie. She is full of energy and helpful suggestions. Very much the artist, her works decorate the living room walls. The house is very well appointed, the bedrooms very comfortable and bathrooms equipped with modern conveniences. The property abuts open fields and the garden provides a view of the Loire embankment just 200 yards away. Two friendly horses will probably approach you looking for a hand-out of stale bread. Exceedingly quiet, absolutely no traffic, the only noises being bird song and the occasional honking pheasant. We walked to the river Cher, about 3 km from where one can glimpse the chateau Villandry on the opposite bank. If one wants to escape, and find the 'real' France one can do a lot worse than rent this property from Marie.

Marie greeted us with a welcome drink in the beautiful garden and even offered to let our three young sons borrow her grandchildren's bikes to explore. The cottage itself is beautifully decorated and can be described as a curated collection of a creative soul with an appreciation for things of beauty-everywhere you turn are little touches that give it so much personality. It has been recently renovated and everything was perfect. The kitchen is very well appointed for cooking, the beds very comfortable, nice linens provided and good hot water/water pressure throughout the home. The garden was just beginning to bloom, I can only imagine how gorgeous it must be a little later in the year-we actually decided to forego many of our planned excursions in the area to simply stay at the cottage and enjoy the peace of the area. As amazing as the cottage itself is our hostess Marie truly made this trip for us-she was so welcoming and hospitable, she truly wanted us to have an amazing trip. We enjoyed her company immensely and even purchased one of her beautiful paintings. We left feeling like we made a life-long friend and hope to return to Une Maison, Un Jardin again in the future.

We saw the photos online and decided the house was perfect for three friends touring the Loire Valley. When we started communicating with Marie about the house and the area we were amazed by how responsive she was, always a reply within hours. Marie shared so much information what to see and do that there was no way to do it all. When we arrived at the house we were late due to traffic, road construction and rain. Marie was so gracious when we called to let her know we were delayed. When we finally got there she welcomed us so warmly, showing us all of the features of the house and really made us feel at home. While we were there Marie catered a meal for us, even taking into account three very different diets and did an amazing job. She prepared a meal of local specialties that was delicious. The location was perfect, a little out in the country but close to plenty of shops and restaurants. We liked that we didn't have to deal with city traffic every day. Ultimately, we were very sorry to leave. The warmth and hospitality of Marie made the week so much nicer than we could have imagined. I'm kind of glad we didn't see everything on our list, that's an excellent excuse to go back to visit Marie!

Marie is the most wonderful hostess. She has thought of everything her guests could want. She has a wealth of knowledge to share about the local area to make sure you don't miss anything. The house is amazing, the beds are very comfortable. Being able to sit in the courtyard and enjoy a meal is a real bonus. This was my second stay with Marie and I know I'll be back.

Prachtig verblijf in ruime, authentieke boerderij met veel ruimte buiten. De boerderij is van alle gemakken voorzien en staat in het teken van kunst en bloemen. Ruime slaapkamers met eigen badkamer, wat erg handig was met pubers. Heel rustig gelegen op 15 minuten met de auto van het centrum van Tours. Volledige rust, maar toch overal dichtbij. We zijn heel vriendelijk ontvangen door eigenaresse die goed Engels spreekt. De eigenaresse woont in het aansluitende huis, maar dat is afgescheiden. Ze geeft op verzoek met alle plezier tips over wat te doen in de Loire steek.

La casa de Marie es preciosa, decorada con gusto, amplia, cómoda y limpia, tiene, tal y como se aprecia en las fotos, un bonito jardín con rosales y plantas aromáticas. Es, sin duda, una opción perfecta para visitar la región: está a unos 25 minutos de la cuidad de Tours, a unos 15 del castillo de Villandry y a menos de 90 minutos de la mayoría de castillos del Loira (Chambord, Cheverny, Blois, Ussés,...). El pueblo más cercano, Savonnières, tiene un par de buenas panaderías, supermercado, varios restaurantes, una playa en el río y un bar al aire libre junto al río con parque y actividades diversas para las tardes y noches de verano. La casa es parte de una granja rehabilitada, está pegada a la vivienda de Marie, su propietaria, pero su discreción y amabilidad es tal que no es ninguna molestia, mas bien al contrario. La propiedad consta de 2 pisos, en la planta baja hay un enorme salón comedor con un par de sofás -uno de ellos, el más grande, es comodísimo- , también hay una cocina (moderna, luminosa y totalmente equipada) y un pequeño aseo. En el piso superior hay un gran distribuidor con sofás y una decoración muy curiosa que incluye varios vestidos preciosos. Hay tres habitaciones, cada una con su baño y su ducha, dos de ellas tienen cama de matrimonio y la tercera tiene dos pequeñas camas. Las camas son muy cómodas y las lencería de cama y las toallas son de excelente calidad. La casa es ideal para una familia numerosa o dos familias. Sólo un "pero" al llegar tuvimos que comprar cosas básicas como papel higiénico, bolsas de basura, papel de cocina, estropajo o fregaplatos, entiendo que se trata de un despiste, así que esto no cambia ni un ápice nuestra excelente valoración de la casa de Marie (que, por otro lado, tenía un montón de juegos, discos, DVD con películas clásicas y hasta disfraces que hicieron nuestras delicias y las de nuestro hijo).

We loved our stay! The owner is friendly and gracious, the house and yard were clean, well appointed, and highly functional. The space is somewhat quirky, with sloped ceilings upstairs, but spacious and artful. It is a removed and quiet location, yet with nearby shopping - and a great centralized location for getting to many Château’s (as well as wineries and other activities we didn’t elect to enjoy). I would gladly return for another fabulous stay!

There were three generations of our family staying at Marie’s holiday home. She was very kind and did her best to help us with all our questions. The gite is set In the country so it was a very restful and relaxing holiday. Very clean, well equipped excellent beds and towels supplied and very relaxing. It was very hot so an outside parasol would have been welcome and possibly a bbq but we didn’t ask so perhaps we should have done, also we felt if Marie had put together an information book with details of supermarkets etc it would be good but again she answered everything if we asked.. We would definitely return in the future and would recommend .

Es ist ein großes Haus , das mit sehr viel Liebe zum Detail von der Vermieterin ausgestattet wurde. Es gibt überall viel zu bestaunen und zu entdecken. Die Küche ist etwas klein , mit wenig Arbeitsfläche , ebenso sind die Bäder klein , teilweise mit schrägen Wänden. Da wir nur vier Personen waren, reichte uns aber der Platz. Wir wurden überaus freundlich ( mit einer guten Flasche Wein ) von der Vermieterin empfangen und in alles sehr ausführlich eingewiesen. Unter prächtig blühenden Rosenbüschen haben wir trotz teilweise schlechten Wetters eine schöne Zeit hier verbracht.

Nous avons passé un week-end très agréable. Marie, la propriétaire est adorable. Elle nous a accueilli très chaleureusement dans cette maison charmante et cosy. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié les équipements et le confort (la literie est parfaite) qu'offrent cette maison, sans parler bien sûr de la décoration très soignée. Nous avons été complètement séduits par le calme et l'environnement très nature des alentours. Un véritable havre de paix à proximité de sites historiques splendides. Cette maison est à recommander sans aucune réserve.

Séjour entre amis agréable, maison bien aménagée, lits très confortables et les salles de bain privatives sont toujours bienvenues. Cependant quelques points négatifs : -la cheminée n’est pas fonctionnelle, seulement décorative. - le ménage de la maison n’était pas prêt à notre arrivée mais seulement à 20h ce qui n’est pas habituel pour une location - une présence peut être un peu trop accentuée de l’hôte Marie qui passe souvent dans la maison. A noter aussi qu’il faut passer par son bureau pour rentrer dans la location. - location chère pour la prestation fournie
