Beautiful stone house with a view of the Loire Valley, quiet, central location, Saumur

Let yourself be enchanted by our "beautiful star" and enjoy this lovingly restored little house for two, with friends or in family.

2 bedrooms offer enough space for a family of 4-5. Modern comfort and lots of windows as well as the closed garden with sun terrace are the big pluses. Parking and WiFi on site.

Outside the high season we offer you 7 nights for the price of 6 nights!

Ideal starting point for castle tours, bike tours, and cave tours. The Loire, the market, the good restaurants and shops are within walking distance.

We would be happy to advise you on good wines, interesting events and excellent restaurants. We would be happy to provide you with maps.

As a landlord, we are only 1 km away and can be reached at any time, but are sufficiently far away that you can enjoy your vacation in a relaxed manner.

Idyllic Stay near the Loire
Petra has created a quiet relaxing oasis in her rental property in Gennes. It was perfect for the 3 of us to investigate the region. The village has lots to offer too. The house is quiet, very clean and comfortable. Thank you Petra!

A wet week!
Despite the rain we had on and off for most of the week, we enjoyed our stay at gite belle etoile. The pretty front garden was a nice place to relax when the weather allowed. It was a good base to visit the area between Chinon and Angers.

Relaxing
Good clean property with everything you need. Upside down living is a bit confusing at first but the view from the sitting room is worth it. Garden is sheltered and the shops are a five minute walk away. Six footers need to watch their head in one place and even though Petra pointed this out I still managed to bump mine a couple of times or was that the wine??????

A great house on the Loire
Great garden, decking, living room with a view (and a breeze which was handy in the mud 30s). Very good location near baker, butcher etc, whilst being very quiet

The Perfect Loire Valley Experience
In the small town of Gennes is this nicely appointed house conveniently located between Angers and the quaint town of Saumur. Petra Schewe speaks English beautifully as well as French and her native German but beyond that it was her hospitality that was over the top and impressed us the most. We were on business attending several wine shows in the area and not only did Petra give us some helpful tips she booked us for a tasting and dinner at a beautiful, old Cathedral in Angers - for free! How can you beat that? Petra was incredibly kind and super cool. She was awesome and the house served us beautifully. Thanks Petra. Hope to see you again.

Fall Escape
Our family of five spent a relaxing 4 days in Belle Etoile. The house is charming and very well appointed, and isn't lacking for any convenience. The garden was great for our young boys who played soccer most evenings. The town is quiet, but there are a few small markets, boulangers, and boucheries nearby. I would offer one caution to parents of young children in that there are multiple levels to the house separated by small sets of stairs. That being said, the multiple levels do contribute to the charm.

Schönes Ferienhaus mit großem Garten
Wir hatten einen erholsamen Urlaub in einem liebevoll restauriertem Ferienhaus. Das Ferienhaus ist gut ausgestattet und hat einen großen, nicht einsehbaren, gepflegten Garten. Wir haben uns von Anfang an sehr wohlgefühlt.
