La Grande Maison, lying peacefully amidst the vines in the Parc Naturel Regional Loire-Anjou, is the perfect base from which to explore the local wine growing region and take a wine tour.
Wine is of fundamental importance to your stay here. Our cellars stock an incredible selection of Loire Valley wines that can be sampled with our Wine Sampling suppers. We serve quality food sourced locally and cooked simply using the freshest of ingredients.
La Grande Maison is set within it's own walled grounds. Situated on a hill with spectacular views over the local countryside of sunflowers and roses during the summer.
