Guest Comments

We enjoyed our stay in the Loire Valley and your lovely home. So much to see in the area – wish we had another week! Thank you both for all your help and advice.
(Terry and Art – Houston USA)

Enjoyed a relaxing, sun-filled week at the gîte ‘Anjou’ Les Fleurs. Anjou was comfortable and suited us perfectly. All the soft toys and baby equipment was much appreciated by Sian. Would highly recommend the Zoo at Doue la Fontaine (for children and adults’). Plenty to do and see – Les Fleurs is the perfect base. Many Thanks!!
(Helen, Brian and Sian – Dublin Ireland)

Another great week at Les Fleurs! This has been our third visit; we still found new places to see and things to do. We were very comfortable in ‘Anjou’ and Sue’s meals were good as ever. We are looking forward to coming back next year. See you both then. Thank you!
(Tony and Lynda - Cheshire–September)

Lovely gîte in a beautiful setting. We have enjoyed exploring the area but there is still so much to do! We will be back!!! As well as the lovely countryside, we were very impressed by the local towns, Doue la Fontaine, Saumur, Angers and Nantes. One of our favourite places is Bouchemaine – the walk along the river. Merci et á la prochaine fois!!
(Jon and Sian – Cambridge)

Lovely, well equipped gîte – just like home! Great rear garden, really safe for children. The meals we had were great – served in our own garden as if in a smart restaurant and great value too! Thanks Jon and Sue
(Ross, Sam, Myles and Aaron – Jersey)

Although the weather did its best to spoil things now and again – it didn’t succeed!! The gîte and our hosts were excellent, top marks all round. Visits to Futurscope, Montreuil Bellay, Saumur and Chenonceaux left the children ‘all chateued out’ but we enjoyed them all. The walks during the evening after eating were lovely. There is so much to see and do in the area that you could be here a month and still miss things (we will return!!) Once again, thank you to our hosts Jon and Sue for allowing us to stay.
Graham. Justine, Codie and Cairo with Steve and Linda (grandparents) – Cambridgeshire)

A lovely, clean, charming gîte. Thank you Sue and Jon for your welcome and for the lovely meals. We enjoyed our stay in the area. Brézé château was wonderful, especially for children who loved the tunnels to explore. The Zoo at Doue la Fontaine was a highlight and the market at Thoaurs
(Jamie, Suzy, Rosie and Sally with Helen and Sam – Guernsey

A splendidly clean gîte and extremely family friendly, with the play area, paddling pool and pool a big hit. It was good fun teaching the Americans (staying in Soleil) cricket!! The area is as beautiful as I remembered from my childhood, with Richelieu and Montreuil Bellay especially memorable. Also the zoo at Doue la Fontaine also. We’d love to think we’d come back again and will be recommending this as a place to stay to our friends. Thanks again for all your help – the jump leads especially!!
(Jules, Katie, Holly, William, Rosie and Dominic – Surrey)

The gite is beautiful, peaceful and perfectly equipped for us and our 10 month old daughter. Jon and Sue are lovely hosts who have helped make this a superb holiday. Thoroughly recommended. We will defiantly be returning. A big thank you!
(Mike, Tamsin and Amelie – Jersey)

Dear Jon and Sue, we have really enjoyed our time amongst the vineyards, the sunflowers and your beautiful gite. Ben (our little boy) had a great time, we will come back! p.s. Superb hosts and Sue could start a restaurant!!
(Jim, Farneile, Ben and Liam - Brussels)

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! Great location and a lovely place to stay. It was great to have a place that was so child friendly! We would defiantly recommend the gite Anjou and Sue and Jon to anyone looking to stay in the Loire Valley!
(Sam and Catherine – Henley-on-Thames)

One of the best, if not the best equipped gites we’ve ever been in and we’ve been in quite a few over the years! Jon and Sue’s recommendations can be trusted the Beinvenue restaurant in Doue la Fontaine is fantastic!
(Ian and Katrine – Aberdeen)

We have been holidaying in France for many years but have never stayed anywhere that compares to the excellence of Anjou. Thank you for a great time.
(Jim and Jean - Essex)

We have had a wonderful holiday despite the disappointing weather – beyond even Jon and Sue’s ability to arrange because they got everything else just perfect. The gite Anjou is well equipped, clean and spacious and was beyond all our expectations. Both adults and young teenagers thoroughly enjoyed the visit to the Cadre Noir, Rochmenier, the Mushroom Caves in Saumur were interesting. Finally, our evening meal at the Hotel Splendid in Montreuil Bellay and our cycle back to Montreuil Bellay in lovely weather on our last day will be treasured memories for a long time. Thank you Jon and Sue for the excellent web info which enticed us here.
(Angela, Pete, Chloe and Steph – Cheshire)

Wonderful gite, marvellous hosts and a big thank you for our lovely relaxing time!
(Sean, Maeve and children – Ireland)

We thank you sincerely for your kindness, guidance, reassurances, warmth and the time you spent with us throughout our weeks stay which has now enabled us to buy the house that we only ever dreamed of. We have been touched by your unselfish nature in wanting to help our move to France successful. You have restored our faith in human nature.
(Paul, Maggie, Shana and Ilona – Kent)

Many thanks Jon and Sue. A memorable 5 months in your award winning gite. Good luck and good health to you both. Happy gardening Sue!!
(Rosemary and Mike – now living in France)
