Feel like a landlord
This house was really nice. Clean and tidy, enough of kitchen appliances, good shower, good firm bed. Big tv most frence channels. And fast wifi. The house is placed on the old orangerie of the next door castle. Plenty of space inside walled big gardens. even a garden backdoor to small wood where we saw wildlife. Chartres is half hour by car . And on 10 a15 min both directions some supermarkets. This is not the big tourist location but If you look for rest, perfect. Also some hiking posseble. Chartres is also a nice place to shop and eat . And not to forget Pierre and Sophie who are so friendly owners.

Peaceaful
A lovely property in a very nice location. Peaceful and comfortable. For us personally we would have preferred a table and chairs instead of the lounging sofa. Us 75 year olds find bar stools rather unforgiving. Neverthhe less we had a wonderful time.

Am amazing place to stay!
We had a fantastic few days in the Orangerie. Pierre and Sophie are charming hosts who were happy to tell us all about their farm and the surrounding area. The gite is beautifully decorated and has everything you could possibly need for your stay. The place is so peaceful and calm with a view out over a large garden and walks in the country on your doorstep. It is close to Chartres - a visit to the cathedral is a must - and there are other chateaux and places of interest not too far away if you are looking for something to do, but you could easily spend all your time at the gite, in the garden, or walking around the area. There is another gite in the same courtyard plus another being renovated, which would make it an ideal place for a large family or group of friends to stay together for a holiday. Can't wait to go back!!

Quiet repose
Idyllic spot in the countryside, quiet and peaceful yet close to Chartres. Accommodation was tasteful, in excellent order with everything needed for a pleasant stay. Owners were helpful and unobtrusive. We hope to return.

Beauty and Tranquility
This is the most tranquil and beautifully-decorated cottage we have ever stayed at. It’s private and really affords guests the experience of French culture and history. The bed and sitting room are very comfortable and the garden is lovely. Highly recommended.

Lovely old buildings recently renovated
This is a fabulous rental in the heart of the country near Chartres. It is a walled, gated property with beautiful extensive lawns and grounds and flowers. This is an old building that has been recently renovated to a very high standard with all a renter could need. It is so very peaceful and welcoming at the end of a day of sightseeing and city hustle and bustle. The family who own the property couldn't be kinder. They are genuinely interested in meeting the needs of their renters and go out of their way to be welcoming and kind. Should you be fortunate enough to be a renter, you might might also have the pleasant experience of meeting Sophie's mother from Paris. She was an added delight to speak with, as was Enes, Pierre and Sophie's daughter. Their command of English is truly great, and put to shame our miniscule French! We highly recommend this property and would love to return for another visit.
