Matthew Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 (edited) Summer hols in France, staying in Chinon and went to visit this Chateau in Rigny-Usse. First time in the Loire Valley and it is stunning. We brought the bicycles and there are plenty of very beautifully laid out cycle routes to explore. Edited August 7 by Matthew 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkfan Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 We went to the Loire Valley twice years ago; once from Poland in an Audi Quattro Avant with two chocolate labradors in the back, and once from Yorkshire in a TVR Griffith 500 - fond memories of both trips. Make sure you visit Chenonceau and Chambord; the former is exquisite and beautiful, the latter is that again as well as epic in scale. Try and get to Chambord very first thing before the crowds arrive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
