This is the perfect gateway to major Renaissance Landmarks in the Central Loire Valley area, such as the Grand Chateaux of Blois, Chambord, Amboise or Chenonceau, and Clos-Luce, a mansion where Leonardo Da Vinci spent his last years, all located in a 40km/25 miles radius from the property. Playing golf at the Cheverny Golf Course', flying over the region in a hot air balloon or hunting in Sologne are among so many activities this area can offer. This is also a place for wine and food enthusiasts.
