Description for B&B:
We are situated in Mesland, a charming village nestled on the north shore of the Loire river, between the towns of Blois and Amboise. Mesland is a popular stop on the renowned wine route of the Loire Valley and is conveniently located near the main "châteaux".This historic property, which was once a thriving wine estate, was constructed in the mid-nineteenth century. It features a grand mansion built in 1846, a serene park filled with century-old trees, and the preserved stable and wine making facility. The last harvest took place in the Clos in 1955.
For those seeking relaxation and refreshment, our 14m swimming pool and deckchairs provide the perfect haven between visits to the "châteaux", wine tastings, walking tours, and bike tours.
The Loire Valley, recognized by UNESCO as a "World Heritage" site, offers visitors breathtaking landscapes, including the untamed Loire river, expansive forests, and majestic Royal Castles.
Mesland, our picturesque village, is situated on the "Wine Road" and is surrounded by vineyards. It was originally founded as a Priory in the 12th century by monks from the Marmoutier Abbey, and the Notre-Dame church still stands as a testament to its rich history. Mesland is renowned for its "Touraine-Mesland" wines, which you can sample directly from the producers.
The Clos Sainte-Marie enjoys an ideal location near the most famous castles of the Loire Valley, including Château de Chaumont sur Loire with its international festival of gardens (7 km), Château d'Amboise and "Clos Lucé", Leonardo Da Vinci's former home (19 km), Château de Blois (23 km), Château de Chenonceau (30 km), Château de Cheverny (35 km), and Château de Chambord (44 km). We highly recommend the Michelin green guide "Castles of the Loire" to explore the region.
There are numerous activities for children in the area, such as mini-castles in Amboise (20 km), the Loire Valley Aquarium in Lussault-sur-Loire (23 km), "Lulu Parc" for the little ones in Rochecorbon (36 km), the Beaumarchais animal reservation with its "safari train" in Autrèche (11 km), and the Beauval Zoo, home to over 4000 animals, in Saint-Aignan (40 km).
In addition to castle visits, the region offers a wide range of activities, including wine tastings (we are happy to recommend local producers), hot air balloon rides above the Loire river and the castles, boat trips to discover the Loire, various walking and bike tours (we can assist with bike rentals), and horse riding at the Centre équestre du Val de Loire (16 km) for equestrian enthusiasts.
For golf enthusiasts, there are several greens in the region, including Golf de la Carte (18-hole) just 10 km away, Golf de Fleuray-Amboise (9-hole) also 10 km away, and Golf du Château de Cheverny (18-hole spanning over 6 km) located 35 km from our property.
