My wife and I arrived at Château de la Huberdière by luck - and what a great stoke of luck it turned out to be.||Having already booked two nights accommodation at a Gite situated between Tours and Amboise, we arrived there to find it of substantial poor quality. We then began a hurried search for more suitable accommodation and this is where Château de la Huberdière came to the rescue.||A quick check on Google followed by a telephone call to Patrick & his lovely wife Lodovica and our stay in the Vallee de la Loire was saved.||The house dates back to the 15th Century and offers 10 bedrooms all with private WC shower or bath facilities. It is set in lovely wooded grounds which we were free to traipse through, much to the delight of our 12mth old Black Labrador (there's even a supply of Wellington Boots in the entrance hallway which saves getting your own footwear wet in the woods).||We stayed in the bedroom called 'Thé' which was large and well appointed with a very comfortable bed. Breakfast consists of a wide choice of Breads inc Croissants and Jams. The Coffee (served in silver pots) is strong and refreshing.||Throughout our two night stay, Patrick & Lodovica could not have made us more welcome and provided plenty of local information on where to visit & dine.||The access to the house is via a narrow lane (room for two vehicles to pass safely) but caution should be exercised due to the bends and local residents walking.||Château de la Huberdière is a hidden gen and I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone looking for somewhere that provides peace and tranquility.||Whilst staying at the Château we visited Château de Chenonceau (the Château on the Water) and also Château du Clos Lucé in Amboise where the incredible Leonardo de Vinci lived and died. The gardens and house are full of his designs and paintings.||Even on a grey and damp November day, the Valle de la Loire is rich in history and as a result all you can do is marvel at the beauty of the numerous Château's; also, don't miss the Troglodyte houses between Tours & Amboise on the North side of the river. ||Thank you Patrick & Lodovica you made our trip worthwhile and we will be...

My wife and I arrived at Château de la Huberdière by luck - and what a great stoke of luck it turned out to be.
Having been let down by the poor quality of a pre-booked Gite situated between Tours and Amboise, we then began a hurried search for more suitable accommodation and this is where Château de la Huberdière came to the rescue.
A quick check on Google followed by a telephone call to Patrick & his lovely wife Lodovica and our stay in the Vallee de la Loire was saved.
The house dates back to the 15th Century and offers 10 bedrooms all with private WC shower or bath facilities. It is set in lovely wooded grounds which we were free to traipse through, much to the delight of our 12mth old Black Labrador (there's even a supply of Wellington Boots in the entrance hallway which saves getting your own footwear wet in the woods).
We stayed in the bedroom called 'Thé' which was large and well appointed with a very comfortable bed & excellent bathroom facilities. Breakfast consists of a wide choice of Breads inc Croissants and Jams. The Coffee (served in silver pots) is strong and refreshing.
Throughout our two night stay, Patrick & Lodovica could not have made us more welcome and provided plenty of local information on where to visit & dine.
The access to the house is via a narrow lane (room for two vehicles to pass safely) but caution should be exercised due to the bends and local residents walking.
Château de la Huberdière is a hidden gen and I cannot recommend it highly enough to anyone looking for somewhere that provides peace and tranquillity.
