La chambre du harpiste0

The accommodation exceeded our expectations in that the room was well proportioned, and very comfortable. In addition there was a lovely little annex kitchen, with refridgerator, sink, plates, knives and forks, a kettle and a little bar table to sit at for self-catering, at its simplest. The room was well heated, for the time of year. The breakfast in the main house the next morning was of a good French standard. (Freshly squeezed orange juice, home made jams) With the romantic addition of the proprietor playing a piece on each of her different harps - a different harp each morning. It was delightful and a privilege to listen to it. She is a very accomplished harpist and public performer.

Nothing!

We had breakfast 2x and both were excellent, 1st morning in the house, with amazing harp accompaniment and help with our itinerary. 2nd morning delivered to our kitchenette, different, but equally as good! The room is small but designed to skillfully maximise it and decorated with impeccable taste. The walk in shower is fabulous and the host goes the extra mile to make the stay as good as possible, in all aspects, not just harp playing! It's small but almost perfectly formed and we absolutely loved it, clear winner as best accom on our driving holiday! Although not on the property, the parking is excellent.

Curtains on the 2 windows without them would be a good idea. The 'town' lets the Chambre du Harpiste down badly - no bar at all in the evening and restaurants/boulangerie often closed - it's very difficult to eat out in this area (including the Loire Valley!), particularly during the evening, particularly early in the week! We ended up dining from the Plouisy Hypermarche one night, so have a plan for evening eating/drinking! Even that closes quite early. It really feels like everyone in this entire area of France goes to bed at 6pm early in the week!

The hosts were very welcoming. The apartment was beautifully decorated and designed, with everything you would need. Breakfast was included in the price and was freshly prepared for us. The added extra - harp music whilst eating breakfast, played by the hostess. I would highly recommend a stay here and will return in the future.

Nothing.

The room is spacious and comfortable with a kitchen space and a fridge which was very useful. Isabelle treated me to a harp performance over breakfast which beats the radio any time!

Nothing to complain about, car parking was across the road, so something to think about if you have a lot of luggage.

The room was delightfully decorated and we had everything we needed. The shower and kitchenette were spotless. Isabel and her husband were lovely and welcoming and the breakfast was tasty and fresh. It was an absolute delight to eat it whilst listening to Isabel playing the harp. They could not have been more helpful.

Loved it all.

Warm and welcoming. Beautifully presented and supremely clean. Breakfast was delicious and it was a real treat to have the harp played whilst sipping on a morning coffee. Bravo! 10/10

Lovely, separate flat with kettle & fridge. Wonderful to eat breakfast to the sound of our hostess playing the harp (& her daughter on the violin).

Only one bath towel for 2 people We couldn’t make the wifi work in the flat, although it worked in the main house.
