We stayed at Les Croix in early August. The gite is owned by Helen and Malcolm who live next door. They are absolutely perfect hosts and nothing was ever too much trouble. Helen who speaks fluent French even helped us book our next chambre d'hotes . The gite is beautifully decorated and furnished, the kitchen extensively equiped. The beds are comfortable and every bedroom has its own bathroom. Sitting on the terrace we looked out across fields , woods and a small fishing lake. There was only the sound of birds, the wind in the trees and the occasional horse who are in the fields surrounding the farm.The area is great for cycling or for exploring le Loir or la Loire. The towns of Bauge and La Flèche are near by if rural tranquility becomes too much. I really enjoyed my stay and will book up to stay here again next year.
