Holiday Homes in Liège

Les Drageonnières is a beautiful place, at the end of a cul-de-sac, in the middle of and surrounded by beautiful nature, forests, vineyards, fields. From the lovely swimming pool (lovely to relax at the edge of it) you have a beautiful view of the surroundings. The world seems far away. An oasis of peace that is pleasantly disturbed by the singing of larks, collared redstarts and other songbirds, the chattering of a pheasant rooster, the rustling of deer, etc. No barking dogs! Via a beautiful road along the fields you can walk to Montrichard in about fifteen minutes and at the end of the path you are suddenly back in civilization. Then quickly back to the soothing tranquility of Les Drageonnières. The cottage where we spent a week (La Ferme) is nice and spacious for six people. The kitchen is very well equipped (including two refrigerators, a freezer, microwave oven, dishwasher, washing machine, endless ladles and other kitchen utensils) and there is plenty of seating downstairs. (We mostly sat outside, by the way.). Good mattresses and good pillows, in short, everything perfect. The fact that the WiFi occasionally faltered actually suited the feeling of being away from the daily bustle.

The cottage is much bigger than the photos showed (we had the one closer to the pool) and Nina was really helpful. The kitchen is very well equipped, including herbs, spices etc. The only thing to be aware of is that the oven is actually a microwave/oven combination and you can only fit one oven tray in it when cooking, which is a bit limiting when cooking for 6 and needed some planning - but there is a big BBQ outside. The pool is very good for young kids with steps, a shallow end and gated. Its in a lovely peaceful setting, we saw deer and rabbits in the evening while eating outside. Amboise, an amazing zoo (Beauval) and several chateaus (Clos Luce is good for young kids) are all within 20-25 minute drive. You won't see everything in a week. For EV drivers theres a good charge point in about 1 mile away in Montrichard and also most towns in the area.
