Hôtel la Tonnellerie

Lovely little hotel tucked away. Quintessentially French boutique hotel with fantastic food and wine with a lovely swimming pool set in tranquil landscaped gardens. We stayed here as a stopover with our family of four and it was a Perfect start to the holiday. Friendly welcome from the hosts.

SUPERBE CHAMBRE ET TRES BELLE SURFACE. Personnel très accueillant et sympathique. Cuisine locale excellente. Terrasse et piscine super agréables. Un bâtiment avec une architecture locale de charme dans un petit village tranquille. Quel calme...

Really enjoyable stay at La Tonnellerie. Room was spacious and spotlessly clean. Lovely large and comfy bed. Staff very friendly and accommodating. Dinner was superb - excellent quality and cooked and presented very nicely.

La Tonnellerie is a very special place to stay. It is not modern and "smart" but, instead, has charm, warmth and character. The breakfast was excellent, with a wide range of breads, pastries, meats, cheeses, and house-made jams and yoghurts.. We received a warm welcome and very pleasant service. We were impressed with the aim to use local and organic produce, where possible, and with the general environmental awareness of the proprietors. The nearby town of Beaugency is worth a visit, for a view of the Loire and the impressive bridge, amongst other sights.

The hotel and location exceed our expectations by a country mile. A lovely 19th C building in a quiet village built around a courtyard with a pool the whole atmosphere was relaxing. There are nice walks around the Tavers. The hotel decor fits the building really well and is kept beautifully clean by the team. The hotel owners live on-site and are lovely, very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. The ambience of the place makes a stay a great experience. As well as a good French breakfast they serve a simple but tasty evening meal from a limited menu, but it saves going into Beaugency to find a restaurant. The food is made from fresh ingredients. The wine list is extensive and from local vineyards. I would throughly recommend anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in the Loire valley to go to La Tonnellerie. My wife and I will have enjoyable memories of our stay (8 days) for many years to come.

Found this hotel website by chance and it didn’t disappoint. Everything was as shown on the website. There were no pictures of fabulous rooms, which when you arrive aren’t anything like that. It’s a small hotel run by the owners, Francois and Helene. They were so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The food is amazing, all sourced locally, very fresh and delicious. The staff are helpful and friendly. The rooms were beautiful, each individually furnished in a style fitting with the building. They were immaculately clean with. very comfortable beds, hospitality tray and fresh drinking water each day. The bathroom was lovely and cleaned every day. The beautiful garden and swimming pool were an added bonus. The pool was cleaned each day, and there were plenty of sun-loungers and garden chairs available. The hotel covers breakfast and evening meal if required but will also make up a picnic if requested for a day out.
