Loire Chateau
I have stayed twice at the Chateau de l`Aubriere near Tours.Excellent food ,service and surroundings.Run by the Comtesse de Lussac (the chef is the Comte! ) Great swimming pool and park /woodlands.
We went there as a group of about 15 and almost took over the whole place for the weekend ! Short taxi ride from Tours airportwhere you can take off and land amongst the Alphajets of the Armee de l`air training school.Find the chateau online .
