There is a picnic lunch en-route either in the vineyards or on the banks
of the beautiful Loire River. In the evening we’ll take you to a local
restaurant where you can sample the regional food. The
area is so rich in history and culture that we always throw in a little
sight seeing along the way too.
Back
at La Grande Maison we will open a bottle of sparkling red and sample chocolates, a perfect match. Made from the cabernet franc
grape Sparkling Red wines from our local producers Langlois Chateau and
Bouvet
Ladubay are sublime with a little Easter chocolate.
Before heading out to dinner you will have chance to take tea/coffee and biscuits in the stunning gardens and have time to relax before being taken to a local restaurant in the evening. An exclusive aperitif will be offered in the underground pigeonneir too! After a delicious breakfast the following morning we return you to your selected departure point. A not to be missed tour of the caves and tunnels at La Grande Maison is also included. SO EASY!

"Our
first trip to France. Six nights in Paris followed by four nights at La
Grande Maison. Whilst Paris was interesting, historic and busy, our
four days with you were relaxing and we experienced more of the REAL
FRANCE than in Paris. Your facilities, service and hospitality were the
"Icing on the Cake!" Thank You" - Max and Deena Warren - Arizona USA
“How
wonderful to be able to drink 29 different wines in the space of one
weekend and console yourself with the fact that it's educational as well
as pleasurable - heavenly from the first to the last drop. Our hosts
not only provided great food and fascinating lessons in viniculture but
were excellent company too. We shall be back!” Kirsty Lang of BBC Radio 4 - London UK
"This
is as good as it gets. Thank you for an amazing four days. All five
senses are fully engaged in pleasure, when you have the perfect
combination of fun and interesting people, delicious home made food
& beautiful wines!!" - Leah and Barton Melbourne Australia
"This
is exactly what we were looking for! Your hospitality and
thoughtfulness made our stay extra special - we will definitely see you
again! Graete" - Leonie, Helonna and Nicolas - Pretoria South Africa
