Chateau Laperier France

If your family loves all things medieval, you must stay in this tiny castle in the Loire Valley. Wake up to stunning views of 12th century Château de Chinon just across the River Vienne, the favoured residence of Henry II. In your little chateau, the needs of a modern family meet classic French architecture. Who would think that a house with turrets would also have a playroom for the kids? Outside, the large lawned garden with play equipment and private pool will ensure the kids head to bed early.
Foodies will be in heaven here; watch fresh French bread take shape at the new bakery just down the road from the chateau – there’s a vegetable market too, so you never have to struggle to scrounge up a meal. When you think of the Loire Valley, you think of white wine. But not so in Chinon! This tiny appellation produces cellar-worthy reds, primarily made of Cabernet Franc.
Wander the cobbled streets of Chinon (3 km) and you’ll discover a multitude of boutique shops, and a dozen Michelin-recommended restaurants. North of town is the ultimate playground for kids and adults – Saint Benoit Aventure Park offers ziplines, climbing walls, aerial games, and more. What a better way to start your morning than with a walk in the Loire- to the local bakery where you can fill your lungs with the amazing smells of the fresh croissants and speciality breads. The Pharmacy adjoins the bakery and a little further down the road is a fantastic new vegetable market, which also has the added addition of local artisan products and wine. The vegetables are so fresh and so much better than the local supermarkets. There is also a local supermarket 1/2 mile down the road, a Carrefour in the centre of Chinon and an Eleclerq the other side of town where you will also find many familiar brand shops.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
