“Turreted, ivy-clad, 16th-century mansion in 35 acres of wooded grounds. Three charming rooms in the house and four gîtes in delightfully renovated outbuildings. Decorated in warm tones with antique furnishings perfectly complementing the historic buildings. Delicious local food available on request.”

Hotel review

Don't miss the chance to stay in one of the delightful gîtes or manor-house rooms of this lovingly restored owner-managed property. No restaurant as such but table d’hôtes and welcome-basket of local produce including potato cakes, smoked fish, and macaroons, are available on request. Splash in the pool or swim in the river, stroll in the grounds, or picnic under a 450-year-old oak tree. Go as a couple, as a family or with friends, you will love every minute.

10 of the best foodie retreats in rural France

While St Victor is the perfect base for visiting the chateaux of the Loire, the prospect of a riverside picnic under the 400-year-old oak tree makes it hard to leave the manor’s garden.
