view of the river, historic buildings, immaculately kept gardens and a friendly welcome. Breakfast was excellent and home made.

Perfect in all respects. The property has a wonderful location on the river with wonderful views of the area. Hostess is very welcoming and produces the most amazing breakfasts. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful get away in the heart of the Chinon area.

An outstanding property in an outstanding location. Beautiful river views from our room. The host was very friendly and helpful. A superb breakfast on the terrace overlooking the peaceful River Vienne. Lovely one hour walk each way along the river to visit historic Chinon. Worth visiting the 11th century church in the village.

Jan the owner was so helpful and friendly. The rooms and breakfast were superb. we turned up in a large vehicle with a trailer which she helped us to manoeuvre in and leave there the next day whilst we went wine tasting.

The Domaine du Heron is an exceptional holiday location. The hostess is welcoming and hospitable and breakfast is served, delightfully, on the terrace overlooking the River Loire..

Just about everything was first rate! Our hosts were very friendly and attentive. Location was fantastic with breathtaking river views. Chinon was within easy striking distance. Breakfast was lovely, giving us a good start to the day. If you are visiting Chinon then look this accommodation up, you will not regret it.

a very large and comfortable room overlooking the Cher. lots of birds and a wonderful breakfast.

Great location on the river in a charming village Very friendly owner Excellent breakfast Superb value for money

Beautiful house, with rooms overlooking the river Vienne & Private parking. Delightful host. Plentiful & delicious breakfast, including homemade yogurt.

Beautiful location and setting combined with a lovely room and great outlook. The owner was very attentive and served a very nice breakfast with fresh crepes, home made jams , croissants and hot chocolate. Chinon was a 10 min drive away and definitely worth a visit......will definitely return to Domaine du Heron if we are in this area again!!
