Gîte des Taboureaux is a charming country house in a quiet little village on the banks of the Loire, in the heart of the Loire Valley, surrounded by castles, museums, vineyards, and fine cuisine. It is ideally located just 50 meters from the Loire à Vélo cycling route and marked hiking trails for walks or horseback riding. Traveling in Touraine is a feast for the senses. It's about admiring the Loire River and its splendid reflections in every season, the sunrises and sunsets, hearing the sounds of animals and birdsong, and the delightful surprise of encountering them during an early morning stroll along the riverbank. It's also about savoring the wines of the sun-drenched hillsides, enjoyed in the cool cellars of Bourgueil, Azay-le-Rideau, Chinon, and the famous Poire Tapée de Rivarennes, and appreciating the gastronomy of the Touraine Val de Loire region. You will love the amazing variety of our region, which is a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of its cultural landscapes.
