Le Pressoir

Family and Friends holidays (hiring several of our gites together):

This gîte is ideal to hire with any of our other self-catering cottages and/or our beautiful Chambre d’Hôtes guest room for family or friends to provide an additional private bedroom suite whilst offering ample space for dining and socialising together indoors and outdoors.

Le Pressoir is our prestige self-contained family holiday home, 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 at the top of the property, amongst mature trees, and features an 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 cool bedrooms even in the heat of the Summer (thanks to the tuffeau stone walls) and stunning views of the Loire Valley from the sunny first floor deck terrace.

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.
