La Maison de l,Argentier du Roy is fabulous and Philip and Christine are marvelous hosts. What they have done to restore and improve the "miniature chateau" is remarkable. It's worth the trip just to experience Philip's enthusiasm and hear the history of their home. You want to enjoy the Loire without the crowds, discover Loches, a well kept secret and... More

We have just spent three days at La Maison, and I am so sad to be leaving.
