La Roseraie de Vrigny

 

la Roseraie de Vrigny, a restored stone-built old wine-growers' farmhouse, is strategically situated just 4 km from Chenonceau, the chateau with its renowned gallery spanning the river Cher.

The accommodation comprises:

Ground Floor: A large traditional farmhouse kitchen with open fireplace and direct access into Peggy's Garden, a cool and convenient corner for alfresco dining; a well-appointed and comfortable salon dining room with traditional French rustic furniture and comfortable sofas and armchairs; a shower room and w.c.  Separate laundry, with washing machine and drying facilities.  (shared when necessary with la Petite Ecurie) From the light and airy entrance hall an elegant oak staircase leads to:

First Floor: Two bedrooms (one en-suite) shower room with WC, and an additional alcove bed on the landing.  The Soleil bedroom, catching the early morning sunshine as its name suggests, sleeps 2 in a double bed (140cm) and has its own en-suite shower room and w.c.  The light and airy Nelson bedroom sleeps 3 in a double bed (140cm) and a single bed (90cm).  Both bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and storage space.  There is a small library of French and English books available for guests.

From both the salon and the kitchen there is direct access into the gardens laid out in the English and French traditions, with herbaceous borders, an extensive and growing collection of roses old and new from both sides of the Channel, and the formal vegetable garden inspired by the famous potager of the Chateau at Villandry.  (If you are there at the right time of year you may spot the hidden symbolism in the planting!)

Gas central heating (supplement September to May).
Private parking in the courtyard and the covered hangar.
