The Coachmans Lodge is one
of several properties nestled in the grounds of the Chateau des Barres
built in 1851, each having their own private garden and use of a large
heated swimming pool. Chateau des Barres is situated in the village of
Vernoil-le-Fourrier, near Saumur. The Coachmans Lodge sleeps 14
as one unit, but can also be split and rented as two gites: i.e. as a 1
bedroom gite plus a 6 bedroom gite, or as a 3 bedroom gite plus a 4
bedroom gite - they then become known as Gatekeepers & Coachmans
cottage - please contact the owner for full details and prices.
Chateau des Barres is situated in the picturesque village of Vernoil-le-Fourrier just 17km north of the historic town of Saumur on the banks of the Loire. The area has many local attractions and is an ideal family location. The former servant housing has been lovingly restored to a standard somewhat more luxurious than that of it's earlier inhabitants would have been used to.
The accommodation resides within the walled garden of the Chateau and makes a pleasant and secure environment for children to play. The chateau is located on the periphery of the village and forest, nestling amongst vineyards, apple orchards and sunflower fields giving access to wonderful scenic walks around this typically French Provincial village. The Lodge and Cottage are conveniently located within the grounds but are self enclosed for privacy.
From here you will be able to walk to the supermarket, boulangerie (lovely hot fresh bread daily plus local delicious pastries) and other usual conveniences. You are welcome to make use of our private picnic area located 1 km away in an undisturbed forest area. Parking is within the grounds. There is a seperate play and camping area with badminton and racket ball and there are skittles and a paddling pool for smaller children. Cots and high chairs are available.
Once the coachmen would reside here to ferry their nobility to their destination. Today life is much more relaxed.
