Location and surroundings of object
This charming 18th-century estate consists of a main building (sleeping up to 8 guests) and two cottages/gites (each sleeping up to 4 guests), making it extremely suitable for several families travelling together.
There is space for 16 people in total.
But individually the holiday homes are great places to stay as well.
There is a communal garden, which is large enough to guarantee everybody's privacy.
Each accommodation also features a private terrace and entrance.
The estate is fully enclosed and has ample parking space.
The perfect place for people looking for peace and quiet. The direct surroundings are ideal for walking, cycling and the location also makes a good base for visits to the large variety of interesting sights in the area.
Major attractions include the castles and wineries of the Loire to the north and the Futuroscope amusement park to the south, but also the popular Puy du Fou theme park.
There's an organic garden at 150 metres of the estate (Les Trois Noyers). This garden is managed locally and it supplies quite a few restaurants throughout the region with its products. The garden features 130 different types of heirloom tomatoes as well as other fruit and vegetables. Products are for sale on site as well.
Charming small-scale holiday park on the edge of the authentic village of Fontenay Sur Dive. Centrally located in between Chinon and Poitiers.

Overall assessment
Ineke Lambert
We were received very warmly. The accommodation is in a word great rustic, authentic and rural. The house is in a very quiet area on the outskirts of the village.
Patricia van de Wiele
Nice accommodation, attractive, but not very clean. The owner has told us that they have problems with the cleaning lady ... they are working on it. For three houses, if all occupy little privacy.
Ellen Eelsing
Great atmospheric location in a quiet area. Wendy and Maarten have renovated the location beautifully and in the large enclosed garden there is always a comfortable spot (sun or shade). Nice quiet area, you can do something and walk, for entertainment you have to drive a bit. In short, recommended!
annelies verbeek-hartman
It stayed cool for us and for our Guus in the middle of summer. Everything was there that we needed, nicely decorated and dogs can not hurt. The owners are big dog lovers. They have a dog themselves and there was always time for our Guus for a hug and a "chat". And also for us:) Ideal that the garden is completely closed off, our curious Guus liked to investigate, nice idea that he could not leave the site. Lots of shade under the trees. Even a shower to cool off!

In the village itself is not much to do, but we did some nice trips in the spacious environment (Poitiers, Chinon, Saumur, ...) The house has a nice garden but inside it was not what we expected. Especially the cleanliness was poor with the old and dusty furniture under the dust. There were also no comfortable garden furniture available.
Petra Richters
A nice looking holiday home with a huge garden around it. Enough playground for young children and dog. Forest and farmlands across the road where you can certainly walk around for an hour and run between farmers. A real rural village. A lot of peace and no sounds, you only hear a watchdog once in a while. The motorway next to the garden is very quiet. You can safely walk on and off the motorway (hard), even with a dog. Cycling is also possible in the area. Friendly neighbors of which at least one also understands and speaks English. In the evening you can barbecue in the garden for those who love it, for people who seek peace in beautiful surroundings, this is highly recommended.

We were very warmly welcomed by the owners, nothing was too much and we could answer all our questions. Our dog had the time of his life with the big garden and the walkway at the door as we came across horses and saw a number of times.

van der Pol
A very nice house and stay! Everything is there and the house remains cool (even above 40 degrees). Beautiful, quiet area for nice trips, nice walks and peaceful sleep. Wendy and Maarten cook a delicious "table d'hôte", give good tips and let you do your own thing if you want to. There are three houses on the property, you have your own terrace and around it is a large communal garden. Lots of space and our bikes could be safely stored in the garage. Recommended!
Leonique van Prooijen
Very nice accommodation. Fully furnished with lots of love and care. A real "French" atmosphere created by the Dutch owners. In the middle of the countryside, but with plenty of opportunities to discover nice towns and villages and of course close to the Loire and castles. Are building a swimming pool, so that will add even more, Ideal for dogs too, a variety of walks and a lot of freedom for them in the garden, which is completely enclosed.
