Large country mansion with chef's kitchen in Loire wine and chateau region

For three months of each year we make our home available for holiday rentals. Manoir Miti isn’t your average holiday rental, it’s more like having the run of a small boutique hotel.
The house with its cook’s kitchen/dining room, salon, library and lots of seating areas outdoors can accommodate 12-14 people. It is a comfortable and well-designed house perfect for five couples, a large group of friends or families who like to cook together.
As well as its summer attractions, this is an ideal location for Thanksgiving, Christmas or New Year. This gorgeous recently renovated 6 double bedroom (5 of them fully en-suite) 19th Century Maison de Maitre offers all the charms of an old French Country House with all the comforts of a well-appointed modern property.
It exudes relaxation and indulgence with a stunning large cook's kitchen and dining area (the owner's run a cookery school and B&B in the Spring and Autumn), a stylish cosy lounge with leather sofas, armchairs and cafe tables, a tranquil library filled with books, a first floor landing featuring a large antique desk and another lounge area on the top floor with cathedral ceiling and skylight. The well-appointed double bedrooms all feature a toilet and shower room tiled in classic French patterns. The first floor rooms offer views of the adjacent church tower and farmland, the top floor rooms offer sweeping views of the river and surrounding farmland of the valley. Located in the small farming commune of Missé in the most southern part of the Loire Valley, the house rests on the verdant banks of the Thouet River (ancient Gallic for ‘tranquil’, a tributary of the Loire. Comfortably off the tourist trail—though the châteaus and castles of the Loire Valley including Chinon and Saumur are less than a half hour away—the Thouet Valley exudes peace, relaxation and contemplation. Add to that the medal-garnering vineyards encircling the area, the beautiful and abundant produce, award-winning goat cheeses and other renowned culinary specialities, and you have the perfect place to eat, cook, and feast the senses. Built on the grounds of a 12th century abbey, the house stands next to the Church of Saint-Pierre, on the trail used by Breton and Norman pilgrims enroute to Santiago de Compostela. It also offers ample cycling opportunities as it's located on a national cycle route through several charming villages and the Chateau d'Oiron. The owners can help arrange cycle hire for your stay (at additional cost).
