B&Bs in Blou

Anne Netherlands

Just before we arrived for our holiday I read a quite critical review of Chateau de Salvert. But, let me just say that we had a fantastic holiday at Chateau de Salvert! The castle is not a big hotel. It is the home to a family who rents out a few rooms and cottages. We had one of the rooms in the castle. Our room was renovated to perfection. It has a stylish decor combining classic features with a modern touch. The bed was super comfortable. The weather was extremely warm during our stay. But it cools down in the evening. So we slept very well. A traditional French breakfast – including fresh croissants and baguette – was served for us in the breakfast room. This room is also beautifully renovated in a classic style. During our stay we visited the surrounding villages, castles and musea. There were also nice hikes in the surrounding woods and along the Loire river. We found plenty of good restaurants in the neighborhood to eat. In the afternoon, we sat in the shade on the porch of the castle to enjoy the view of the grounds. We also loved the pool during the hot weather. Tip! we brought our own pool towels. They only rent out a few rooms so it was very calm. We nearly had the place to ourselves. We felt what it must have been like to live in one of the great chateaux of the Loire. In short, it was a truly unique and authentic experience. The owners are also very nice. They took their time to tell us about their home. We felt that they do their best to make you comfortable. Some parts of the castle still need to be renovated by the generations to come. But the rooms where we stayed in were all done so perfectly. I would definitively book again at the chateau de Salvert!

Wonderful breakfast with homemade jams and a choice of breakfast meats, breads, eggs and drinks. Lovely setting but recommend arriving during daylight as it's definitely off the beaten track. Hosts Sébastien and Adrian were great! A very special experience-

Had a wonderful stay. Eric was a fantastic host. The room was pleasant, but the best thing about this place is the garden and outdoor space. Very quaint and idyllic location. Good location as a base camp for exploring the Loire valley.

Our hosts were more than helpful giving us dinner on the first evening as all the shops were shut.

The quality of the accommodation, its location and the helpfulness of the proprietors made for a thoroughly enjoyable holiday. Both gites are comfortable and very well equipped. There is a great deal to see and to do in the area at any time of the year though you really need your own transport, either motor or bicycle. Some of the chateaux can be expensive to visit so look out for family tickets and ‘twin’ tickets, for example joint tickets to Angers and Azay le Rideau castles. If you are travelling with a pet the vet’s practice of Dr. Andre Mitteault is recommended.
