The room was on the small size, but worked for us.

The welcome we had from our host was exceptional as was his knowledge of the area and its history. He was happy to pass on this knowledge which certainly helped us plan our stay and excursions to get the best effect. The breakfast was stunning with fresh breads and pastries, cheeses, teas and excellent coffee - a great spread and accompanied by good conversation and tips from the host and happy to provide attention to the very friendly dog "snook" The large gardens and space were appreciated as well as the pool, which provided a refreshing break after a day out We were traveling with bikes, so it was easy to get in and out of town very quickly

2 nights stay isn't enough, 3 nights would be much better. If anything, the stairs to the rooms on the second floor wouldn't work for all people, but worked for us all right.

First of all - the wonderful host! We've got geo, history, wine, French food and other lessons together with the very comfortable stay! We stayed only 2 nights at the end of April, we walked everywhere we wanted in Amboise by foot from the place. Breakfast, the history of the place itself, the surrounding area - all very inviting.

Great location to centre of Amboise, opposite Clos De Luce museum and many other local attractions to explore. Thibaut, our host, was friendly and welcoming and ensured our stay was a great one. Perfect long-weekend destination and/or stop-off for those on route from the UK to South of France (or vice versa!)

If I were to be picky I would say that there is not much space left after 2 pieces of luggage. But honestly it is otherwise perfect and a lovely oasis.

The land that this property sits on and the building is beautiful. The host is warm, friendly and passionate about the home and Loire Valley and generous with his knowledge and suggestions of places to see. Breakfast is of high quality ingredients and generous. The pool is clean and a perfect temperature. We swam everyday. We walked into town. It is a lovely location. I would not hesitate in recommending this accommodation.

It was perfect. The bed is a bit on the firm side, but that’s more a personal taste.

Great stay in a wonderful location! Thibaut has turned a longtime abandoned house into a welcoming paradise. The garden with swimming pool is lovely for relaxing in all quietness. We really enjoyed breakfast with traditional French pastries. Thibaut is a great host and had many good tips for restaurants and things to see in the neighbourhood. It was great that he recommended to us to visit the castle Chenonceaux, which was amazing. We stayed in the gite which was charming and comfortable. It is a pleasant 20 minute stroll to the city centre (or 5 min by car). Would definitely recommend to stay here and we hope to be back some time. Au revoir !

Nothing it was perfect!

The host that owes the property has exceptional knowledge of the area. He is well organized and makes sure all your needs are met. If I travel back to this area again it will be the ONLY place I stay. The location is back away from the street on a large compound. Its easy to walk to the downtown area. Other attractions by car are no more than a hour away at the very most.

Steep stairs to the room

A beautiful property about 1km from the town centre. Quiet location. Wonderful host who is a great guide for the region.

Outstanding service in all respects but in particular the host was exceptionally accommodating and was a fount of historical and local knowledge which helped us to make the very most of our two night stay in Amboise. In a word; superb.

Nothing to report

Thibault is a very amiable entertaining and affable host. Monsieur Snook is a very beautiful 3 yr old black Labrador and also very welcoming. Accomm is in a wing of the main house, bdrm was very comfortable for 2 people. The history in such a small village is incredibly rewarding

Nothing. Everything was ok. Room, garden, position, breakfast and kindness of the owner, Thibaut, everything was perfect. We highly reccomend Le Clos de la Commanderie.

The location was enchanting: beautiful quiet garden and the owner is very nice and can give you very useful infomation and advice about your stay in the Loire Valley. Amboise and the Commanderie are very well located to visit the region and also the breakfast was very good.

The place was amazing and the host incredible!

Our host, Thibaut, could not have been more friendly or informative about things to see, places to eat and the history of his property, which we found fascinating. We enjoyed learning about local wine and whether to ask for Pain au Chocolat or Chocolatine! Breakfasts were amazing and informal, so we met lots of interesting people and we were very sad to leave. We shall have to improve our French before we go again so that we can try the puzzles that Thibaut has devised and maybe be able to work out the code for the mystery box! It is a unique place to stay. Last but not least, the bed was very comfortable and the surroundings lovely and quiet.

The outside staircase is steep and you need to be physically able to reach your room.

The house and garden is lovely and has a fascinating history. Our host was so informative and interesting but also wonderfully enthusiastic about his home and having people from all over the world there to talk together over the delicious breakfast every morning. Unfortunately it was chilly while we were there but the pool looked great.

Stairs were very steep, bed was low for we older folk.

Excellent breakfast and location
