Property description:
Le Pressoir is our prestige self-contained family gîte, accommodating up to 6 people in 3 spacious bedrooms. It is the estate’s former wine pressing house and a splendid historic building with unique features, sympathetically refurbished to a high standard. The building itself is nestled amongst mature trees, and features a ancient wine cave that centuries ago, led all the way to the village church, so it is said!
In keeping with its unique character, Le Pressoir has an unusual interior design, with open plan living area on the first floor and bedrooms located on the ground floor. This layout offers guests the dual advantage of wonderfully ambient bedrooms in the heat of the Summer (thanks to the Tuffeau stone walls) and stunning views of the Loire Valley from the elevated, oak sun terrace, adjoining the upstairs dining area.
Providing complete seclusion, this child-safe sun deck is equipped with outdoor dining furniture and overlooks the pool and gardens beyond; perfect for leisurely mealtimes and for watching the glorious sunsets over the Valley.
The open-plan living area features a restful lounge area at one end, providing all home comforts (see features list) to ensure you have everything you need to relax indoors. The kitchen and dining area is fully equipped with high quality appliances and well organised for cooking and dining. Natural light floods into the whole floor space by way of a unique glazed tower above the roof.
All of the bedrooms feature exposed tuffeau stonework and stained glass windows. The bedrooms have been tastefully and comfortably furnished with French period furniture in keeping with the character and age of the building.

On arrival i was set back on how nice the grounds and cottages were.Mark and lisa are friendly and very helpful and with us being a large family group of 16 in total made us all feel welcome and made it as our home.Our stay was funfilled and enjoyable with trips out, highly recommend the tree walking good for all ages and fitness levels, theres also some good swim lakes nearby all recommended by mark and lisa. Brion village its self is quiet and nice to walk around shame the restaurant/brasserie in the village closed down but buefort village has some good bars with a bakers and more. But the pressoir overall a 5* highly recommended will definitely be back take some mosquito repellent but the little bliters will not spoil the fun.And a last note the night sky is breathtaking.

Wonderful gite in a great location
We stayed here for a week during the Easter holidays. We had three children with us - 12, 10 and a baby. The location of the gite was perfect for travelling around the Loire - very central. We had some wonderful days out. Would really recommend the swimming pool in Angers - it is new and has 3 slides - one of which is rapids that require a crash helmet!
The owners were very welcoming and very helpful. The grounds of the gites are lovely and there are lots of toys (inside and out) for kids to play with. There are large supermarkets nearby, which is always a bonus.
I would definitely recommend this place.

Well presented holiday accomodation.
As a family of 4 adults, one child and a baby we enjoyed this location very much. The owners have a super property well looked after and offer any and all assistance required. We found the heated pool superb and the gardens were a pleasure. The apartment was well equipped and the bedrooms were large and again well furnished. There was Wifi and Satellite TV available.

Little piece of paradise
Le Logis du Pressoir was wonderful! It is a little piece of paradise.
It is set in beautiful grounds, which is very child friendly including pool, cubby house, and outdoor kids bikes and toys. The accommodation had meticulous attention to detail - it felt like we were staying at home! The freshly ground coffee beans were a god send, as was the quality finishings (everything from fluffy towels to quality hair dryers - the ladies with long hair will appreciate what I mean!). Our accommodation included everything you could need travelling with children - books, toys, high chair, portacots, baths, etc.
Lisa and Mark were wonderful (especially with a very inquisitive 4 year old!), and made organising our travel plans from Australia very easy. They also had gone to a lot of effort to prepare guest information, with everything from maps to recommended places to eat. They were always willing to help with bookings requiring French (of which we had none!).
We had a hire car, and found locating it very easy with the instructions provided by Lisa. The nearest town, Brion, is walking distance, but Beaufort (a 5 minute drive away) is the key spot for necessities. It has a range of options for bakeries, butchers, groceries, etc. and is very quaint. We enjoyed going there very day for our needs. It is also an easy drive to Saumur, and Gennes - with many beautiful French villages overlooking the river to choose from.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time, and are now planning how we can return!

About the neighbourhood
Within a short drive of le Logis du Pressoir are some of the prettiest villages bordering the Loire river. Relax at a riverside cafe or restaurant and walk along the banks of the river in early evening to see the gorgeous sunsets and hot air balloons rising above the horizon. Boat trips along the Loire are a must and for the more active, kayaking is great fun. Trek through the ancient hunting forests for the Kings of France by horse or bike and you are bound to come across a local festival taking place, celebrating the vineyards, orchards and gastronomy of this wonderful region.
