what a find clean and tidy inside a bit dated but nothing to worry about. Outside could definitely do with a cobweb sweep and the light fixed and the chairs in good condition one was broken when we git there. The site could do alot more perhaps a bit if entertainment etc and maybe a møre better takeaway although this didn’t stop is having a good holiday.

Quiet park with basic apartments and helpful staff
Quiet park with very basic apartments arranged spaciously in 36 blocks of 8 apartments (4 downstairs, 4 upstairs). Ample parking. Friendly and helpful staff. Good size pool, often with few people in it (first week of July). Has space for games (a net, jeu de boules) and items on loan for free. A separate clubhouse for kids entertainment, with a few events on a week. A large supermarket and vegetable shop at walking distance. Nearest town is Richelieu, which is a bit further away, but can be reached on foot. Not many amenities in town.

Rustic but nice.
Its a nice place but booked it as a hotel, we got there and we were told we had to clean the room and strip the bed on departure and put the rubbish out. Was pleasant enough as a stopover but hard to find as satnav took us back lanes.

Good for self catering
Look for Richlieu on the map, we found it easier. Medium size room with kitchenette. Whilst it had a dishwashing machine, there were no tea towels or dishwashing liquid. Good TV, even found the BBC world service. Necessary to use the supplied trollies to get bags from large car park to room, not really a problem. Reception were pleasant and there is a spa, but did not use it. Wi Fi in reception, though my room was close enough for the internet to stretch. Breakfast and dinner, at a price. Used the place to visit Chateau de Breze (euro 11.50) and the local area. Did not spend any time in (Cardinal) Richlieu. Big supermarket down the road; very useful. Good stay, and recommended for the self catering aspect. Nice balcony for the warmer days..

Good location, good facilities, not a very tourist part of France, so do not expect the locals to speak anything but French. Richelieu unique and historic, Some good places to eat good quality and not expensive.

Great, basic accomodation
We enjoyed our stay at Le Relais du Plessis. The accomdation was very basic, but provided most everything we needed. No oven and could have done with a few more items for the kitchen, but the essentials were there. The grounds were fairly quiet and had a very safe feeling as my children ran around with the other children they met. Located on the outskirts of a lovely town, close to a supermarket, helpful staff, clean. We would return.

Close to a beautiful 17th Century Listed town.
Very impressed, value for money and perfect for a family. It is not always easy to find accommodation for a family of 5 at a reasonable price. We stayed for one night en-route and we're pleased it was well appointed and close to the most beautiful town.

Misleading and pikey
The concept of this hotel/holiday village is fundamentally flawed. It is not a hotel in that services are minimal, but it is not equivalent to a gite or rental property since you have to provide and do so many things yourself. Given the charm of French villages, I don't know how anyone would chose this ahead of a gite. And it is not cheaper. The swimming pool is the only advantage it has over a gite, but you have to share it with some of our rudest/noisiest Northern Europe neighbours. Consider the following before booking: - room needs to be cleaned before departure - never seen that before - need to undo bed and put all bed linen and towels in a bag before departure - Wi-fi does not work - You have to leave your car at an outside car park. Good for security but no help for carrying cases to the bungalow - car park is too small (loads of cars parked everywhere in the morning) - Small swimming pool - small bedrooms (the width of a large suitcase around the bed) - very little storage space - only 1 small towel per person provided - nothing provided for the kitchen apart from crockery (no washing up liquid, sponge, tea towels etc)

Lovely location. Good to collect bread from reception in the morning. Room perfect for us, comfy double bed and comfy bed settee for a teenager in the lounge area. Great to sit on wooden balcony and eat dinner outside. Well fitted apartment. Only thing missing was an oven, as the dual microwave couldn't cook pizza. Not far from Chateaux of the Loire. Supermarket 5 minutes walk away. Would go back!

Very basic, good value, great location.
It's a small, quite new campsite style place without the tents! Accomodation is basic to good, but it's cheap so good value. Beds a bit hard though. Having a balcony is good. Pool nice, but be up early to get a sunbed! Food not great, but it's 5 mins walk to a large supermarket and 15mins walk to Richileu which is lovely. Great location for exploring The Loire. Chinon 25 mins drive, Tours 40min and a bunch of Chateu's and vinyards nearby. Weather was good so we had a good time.

If you want a family camping property, this might be ok
The beds were so uncomfortable that we left after the first night, even though we'd paid for two. While the kitchen and bath were nicely appointed, altogether this was like a Motel 6 meets a camping lodge. The bed in the bedroom was like a child's bed so I slept curled up; the second bed in the main room had such a loud squeak that it woke me up every time the occupant turned. Dragging luggage a long way from the car, across gravel, to reach the room did not help. Front desk closes at 10pm; good luck if you need a question answered after that. Sitting area and bed room looked like they had been furnished at Big Lots; I would not characterize this as 3 stars; was surprised to see this in Loire Valley. The room was clean and quiet, and the staff were nice.

Good and basic for what we needed
The place is nice looking, New England style, friendly, with a lovely pool area and great restaurant buffet. The 'cottages' are apartments, 4 to a house. We had a 6 berth for 4 people, which gave us 2 small bedrooms - 2 x bunks and a double -a living space with kicthenette, day bed which could become 2 singles, and a dining table; a separate toilet and bathroom. Very small but efficiently laid out. Outside was a veranda with table and chairs, lovely for drinks after our long drive. The houses are laid out in a semi circle around the pool, spa and restaurant. It was perfect for a selcatering overnight stay, which lots of people appeared to be doing, but also seemed ideal for families on holiday. My only real complaint was with housekeeping. the place looked clean enough at first sight, but there were hairs on the worksurface of the kitchen, suggesting a cursory wipe, the bathroom was similar. There was grout missing from floor tiles, we could have lifted tiles up, the bathroom floor was raised and when our children had tripped twice we looked and realised it hadn't been finished properly, so you could see under the floor into the cavity beyond. While the double bed had been made up, we were left with 2 sets of bunk beds to make up ourselves, with flat sheets, not easy or ideal after a 7 hour drive. Apart from those niggles, which I could almost overlook because we only stayed one night (I'd have kicked up a fuss if we were there longer) we enjoyed the place and relaxed.

A new experience
Everthing you could want for a quiet self catering holiday.Very friendly courteous staff in bar and restaurant, food in evening high quality but with limited choice, but at an appropriate price. Parking can be a problem if returning late at night, had to park outside once.The residence was very close to local Intermarche. We would have appreciated more in room information about the facilities and local attractions.We would definately consider again if we were in the region in the future.

This complex looks fairly new - it has very little comfort for a family with children. The staff are basic in english like us in frencxh but you struggle by. The food is goos quality but breakfast was a disaster. Not enough staff to cater for any amount of guests - everthinh ran out way befotre 1000 - 1 staff who was not totally with it. Most or allguests were upset by lack of all types of needy food/drink.

Its like a summer beach rental
We were staying for four nights. The place is not a hotel. It is made up of cottages which has four up and four down. Ours is advertised as sleeping 6. There is one bedroom with a queen bed, one bedroom with bunk beds and a sleeper sofs with a trundle bed that pulls out. The room with the bunk beds was so small that the door could not be completely opened because it hit the beds. When we arrived, there was no soap for the bathroom or kitchen. There was a coffee maker but no filters. No bathroom tissue. The dishes, silverware and pot and pans were good. There is no air conditioning which was alright for early May. Re restruant was good but expensive. We did not use the pool or the saunna.

Très déçus
Pour un établissement recommandé par Hôtel .com car figurant dans ses listes de propositions, je me demande quel est l'intérêt passer par ce site de réservation. Impossible d'avoir une personne de l'hébergement avant notre arrivée, pas de linge de toilette fournie comme prévu, pas de linge de lit fourni comme prévu et surtout pas d'eau chaude. Un numéro d'urgence nous a mis en relation avec une personne qui nous amène à le linge mais concernant l'eau chaude leur seule solution a été de nous envoyer prendre la douche dans l'appartement d'à côté. Nous ne pouvions pas changer de suite d'appartement car le ménage n'était pas fait. Pas de piscine, pas de spa dispo......bref très déçu de l'établissement et suroti de Hôtel .com.

Pas de serviette ni de drap disponibles a notre arrivée mais ils ont été très corrects en nous offrant un petit déjeuner. Bien situé proche du Futuroscope Logement avec quelques vieilles toiles d'araignée qui pourraient être enlevées facilement, mais par contre logement tout équipé lits confortables, piscine avec petit bassin, badminton.
