A very comfortable and well-equipped base from which to explore this lovely part of the World. We travelled as a group of three on a kayaking holiday and shall all be returning separately both with and without our wives/boats. The accommodation is very well equipped, recently refurbished, clean and bright throughout. The views are spectacular. As a bonus, the additional wooden chalet, comfortably sleeping 2 in bunks also adds versatility either for storing luggage/children or, as in our case, sleeping the snoring member of the party! I must also mention the hospitality of Avril and Stuart our hosts who simply could not do enough to ensure that our stay was comfortable - even to the extent of donating their breakfast to us when we'd neglected to go shopping ! Chateauroux itself is a lovely, very French village with a selection of bars/bistros and a shop that provides most excellent croissants and cheeses. We would not hesitate to recommend this destination to anybody considering a trip here.
