Guest Reviews
Every now and again you discover a gem, and La Belle Etoile in Avon les Roches is just one of them.
A gorgeous property in a beautiful location and looked after by a friendly and professional host. 
Also a fantastic base if you are looking to explore the Loire region. Highly recommended.

The setting is beautiful, the welcome friendly and generous (thank you for the little touches in the fridge). The owner is very available and gives good advice for tourism. The accommodation is comfortable and the terrace very nice. The cottage is very well equipped.

Quite simply the best self catering gite/cottage we have ever stayed in. Bruno and Ritva provided us with some fantastic local produce as a welcoming present and they were extremely helpful throughout our stay. We were able to eat our breakfasts and evening meals on the terrace, and when we were at home for lunch, we took our food into the lovely wooded area next to the house for some cool shade. The swimming pool was a real bonus. The beds and sofas were comfortable and the showers were excellent. Everything you could possibly need for cooking was provided. We walked into the village and ate in the local cafe/bistro which was very good value and of a good standard. There are 2 boulangeries in the nearest town - only about 3 miles away - as is the nearest supermarket. We loved it so much that we are booking again for next year.

Everything was perfect. The welcome, the location, the view from the terrace of the countryside. Complete equipment and the small grocery store in the cupboards. The pool, the garden for children.

We had a lovely relaxing holiday. The gite has recently been renovated to a very high standard with everything that you would need, the photos don't do it justice! The pool was a good size and the rota worked well with the other gite. We used the bikes to cycle to the next village to do some sight seeing. I would recommend this gite as a great place for a family to stay.

A close-up of vibrant yellow sunflowers in full bloom under a clear blue sky. The prominent sunflower in the foreground has large petals and a detailed brown center. More sunflowers can be seen in the background, stretching towards the horizon—a perfect view from your family-friendly holiday villa.
