Overview
Live like royalty when you stay at this beautiful château in the Loire Valley. Built by a French nobleman over two centuries ago, Château de Flora offers a unique taste of history alongside fantastic amenities and great charm.
Be amazed by the grandiose living spaces on the ground floor. The main salon showcases its 16th century tapestries on the wood-panelled walls whilst antique furnishings surround the marble fireplace. The second salon is ideal for delightful evenings playing cards or listening to music; in the summer open up the French windows leading to the terrace and gardens. Enjoy fine dining with family and friends in the majestic dining room after creating a feast in the brilliantly equipped kitchen. Even kids have been thought of with a lovely children’s corner featuring toys and games.
Up to 13 guests can sleep in six beautifully decorated bedrooms, each one strikingly individual – will you stay in one of the charming bedrooms with its own en suite bathroom decorated with Toile de Jouy wallpaper, the pretty double with its own library cabinet of English and French books or the delightful twin looking over the French gardens? Don’t miss the little chapel on the second floor as well, another one of the enchanting attractions of this home.
Set in over seventy acres of parkland, Château de Flora features a heated swimming pool, private tennis court, table tennis, boules and badminton – enough to keep all the family entertained. Explore the arboretum of over 200 species of rare trees, pick flowers in the walled kitchen garden and relax by the fishing pond.
If you can tear yourself away from the château then you’ll find wine tours, historic villages, canoeing on the Loire and some of France’s most magnificent castles close by. Try local cuisine at the Michelin starred restaurant 10 minutes away or visit the atmospheric on a Thursday morning in Ancenis. The Mont of Saint-Michel day trip is a must and The Puy du Fou medieval park in Les Epesses is fun for all.

Location
About the surrounding area of Chateau De FloraThe château is just half-an-hour from Angers (37km) which is easily reached by TGV from Paris Montparnasse in 90 minutes. If you arrive by ferry, there is a choice of ports including Saint-Malo just over two hours away or by aeroplane it's just over an hour from Nantes Airport.
The local town is just 5km away where you will find a variety of amenities; make sure you visit the town’s chocolatier during your stay.
The Loire Valley is classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site with good reason – some of the most prestigious châteaux of France can be visited for a great day out. Close by, head to Château de Challain-la-Potherie (14km, by appointment only) or admire the 15th century Château du Plessis-Bourré (42km) with its wonderful setting surrounded by water – take a picnic to enjoy in the grounds after a guided tour. Further afield around the city of Tours, you will find the well-known Château de Villandry (140km), Château de Chenonceau (180km) as well as Château Royal d'Amboise (190km) near the tomb of Leonardo da Vinci.
Closer to home, enjoy all that the Loire river has to offer – hire canoes on the river around twenty minutes away in Mauges-sur-Loire or take leisurely boat trips along the river departing from Saint-Mathurin-sur-Loire (56km). Visit the typical Loire town of Ancenis (30km), especially on a Thursday morning with its vibrant market and don’t miss a trip to the town’s Maison du Vin! ndeed, this region is wonderful for wine-lovers with Anjou vineyards to the east and the wineries of Nantes to the west.
The Loire is also well-known for its brilliant cycling route, Loire à Vélo, whilst golf-lovers will appreciate the Anjou Golf & Country Club (40km) in beautiful surroundings. Other outdoor activities include tree-top trails in the Anjou woodland, go-karting near Ancenis and great walking trails. A hot-air balloon ride is another way to discover the amazing landscapes!
Saturday is a good day to visit Angers (37km) with its atmospheric morning market. The town is also well-known for its medieval château featuring 14th century tapestries, wonderful museums and beautiful Renaissance architecture.
Alternatively, spend time in the French city of Nantes (70km) with its recently restored Château des Ducs de Bretagne or you could even drive up to southern Normandy with the outstanding Mont Saint-Michel (160km) just over two hours by car.

Region
A region doesn’t get to be called “The Garden of France” without being pretty special, and the Loire Valley is just as luscious and beautiful as its nickname would suggest. There’s countless acres of beautiful woods, vineyards and farmland that produce some of France’s revered ingredients and delicacies, and a wealth of history and beautiful architecture that demands and rewards exploration. Whether you’re heading off with the family, friends, or both, our fantastic portfolio of Loire Valley villas and chateaux means you’ll find fantastic, comfortable and quirky accommodation no matter your preferences.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThe Loire Valley is loved by all ages due to the wealth of activities in the region.
Hire canoes for excursions along the Loire or Èvre rivers, take boat trips along the Loire, follow parts of the famous cycling route, Loire à Vélo, or discover wonderful walks through the enchanting landscapes.
Head to the tree-top trails in the forests of Anjou and discover go-karting near Ancenis. More sedate youngsters may prefer just to browse the exciting market in Ancenis instead – a great place to go on a Thursday morning.
Visit some of the magnificent châteaux of France that can be found close by from the 15th century Château du Plessis-Bourré, surrounded by water (an ideal spot for a picnic) to the impressive Château d’Angers in the delightful town of Angers, also home to some great museums.
Further afield, spend the day near Tours with world-famous châteaux and gardens such as Château de Villandry, Château de Chenonceau and Château Royal d'Amboise.
Puy du Fou theme park, around ninety minutes away, is another superb day out, a fantastic historic theme park with a reputation for its excellent shows – this is one of France’s most popular parks after Disneyland Paris!

We had a wonderful time
We had a wonderful time with the family in your château.
Everything was excellent. The château, the garden, the pool, tennis…
Audrey and the lady’s from housekeeping were very attent en helpful.
The children had the time of their lives driving with the little quad.
Together we visited Nantes, we went to Terra Botanica and did the tree climbing thing in Tépacap Anjou.
Tons of fun… -
All in all, a stay to recommend
Our stay in the small castle in the Loire Valley with two Dutch families was nothing short of great. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and there was a lovely welcome basket full of local products. This gesture was the start of an unforgettable vacation. The accommodation itself was magnificent. Classic details, an up-to-date kitchen and the castle was neatly clean. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and the large pool. The quiet environment and the beautiful views contributed to a feeling of complete relaxation. One of the highlights of our stay was the dinner that was specially prepared for us. We have enjoyed a culinary feat in the beautiful dining room, an experience that really made us feel like a dinner on stand. In addition, we were able to enjoy the delicious regional wines during our stay. All in all, a stay to recommend.
-
A delight
We were very comfortable in the bedrooms and their adjoining bathrooms. The kitchen is very well equipped. We were also able to take advantage of the outside area, the park is very pleasant and the pool area was a delight.
-
Perfect
Very nice place, we had a pleasant stay with out children and grandchildren. Very nice park, welcome, perfect amenities and stay.
-
Exceptional weekend
We had an exceptional weekend. Your property is absolutely splendid, and despite having seen the photos we were overwhelmed when we arrived. The Madame was very welcoming and prepared a delicious meal for us. The whole experience was perfect.
-
Even more beautiful in reality
We had a great weekend in Chateau de Flora! Everything was clean, functional and the place is splendid. The heated pool did us a lot of good and the surrounding nature allowed us to rest well. The castle is even more beautiful in reality than in the pictures. We recommend it!
-
Superb...stunning...perfect...wonderful
The Chateau was absolutely stunning. The grounds were amazing with a vegetable garden which provided lovely produce for our meals. The swimming pool was perfect and an ideal temperature. We used the tennis court every day and the owner found us a great coach in Christophe. Althought the chateau is majestic the best thing is that it felt like our home. We had the marvellous Madame prepare many meals for us and all were superb. I would recommend all guests to take the opportunity to sample her cooking. A wonderful stay!

The perfect place for a family break
This chateau in the Loire Valley is the perfect place for a family break: an elegant setting, a lovely park, a wonderful swimming-pool and a tennis! Food and wine... What else!
Cherry on the cake: The two cleaning ladies did a great job.
We had planned to use it as a base to explore the area but we felt so comfortable that we stay 7 days on the site! -
We had a magnificent holiday
We had a magnificent holiday, thank you, it could not have been more enjoyable - the weather was with us and it was the perfect property for a big family! Many thanks again for all of your guidance ahead of our visit.

Pure summer relaxation
We had a perfect family holiday at Chateau De Flora. It is a beautiful house and our blue bedroom - on the far corner of the house - was so comfortable. Every morning we went and got croissants from the local village and ate them in the morning room. And then we spent most of the days lounging by the pool area and cooking up a storm in the modern kitchen and eating dinner altogether outside at one long table. We so enjoyed our stay!

Great family spot in the countryside
The chateau has really beautiful grounds and fantastic staff and very helpful owners. Our children enjoyed visiting with the animals, swimming in the pool, perfecting their ping-pong skills and catching their first fish in the lake. We all enjoyed the tennis court and the tree swing. You will not regret hiring the cook. Mme P is an excellent cook and a joy to have around. On a practical note, the bedrooms are spacious, beds comfortable and the house features plenty of bathrooms/toilets. The house is well stocked with games should you have a few rainy days.

Feel like royalty in the French countryside
Our party of 13 people (6 adults and 7 children between 10 and 13) stayed at this beautiful estate for 2 weeks. We had a wonderful relaxing time. The chateau's kitchen is very well appointed to allow the preparation of anything you can imagine from the most simple lunch to a full banquet dinner, should one wish to... the bedrooms are comfortable, and the many dining and sitting options in and around the chateau make for varied relaxation spots. We loved the expanse of space and the various sporting activities we were able to do here. There are a multitude of tennis rackets to choose from, the kids enjoyed the ping pong as well as the badminton facilities and the swimming pool and loungers by the pool were fantastic.
A short drive away we were able to find bakeries, butchers and grocery stores.
We had a dream vacation here and can highly recommend the place. Hopefully we'll be able to return ourselves one day! -
Perfect Family Holiday
This is a wonderful property which effortlessly manages to combine history and comfort. It was a perfect family holiday after months of Covid confinement in our Paris apartments. The kids loved the beautiful grounds and found endless ways to amuse themselves cycling around the property, fishing in the lake, marveling at the cows and chickens, and playing for hours in the heated and landscaped swimming pool. The house is so well equipped from the kitchen through the bedrooms and basement. The owners of the property were very easy to deal with throughout. It was a magical week and both families left wishing we had booked a second week and promising to come back in the future.

Beautiful House!
We had a wonderful time at your beautiful house, thank you.

We absolutely loved our stay
We absolutely loved our stay at this family chateau. The site was gorgeous and the house so elegant! Very helpful host, great French experience! Our evening tennis court sessions were clearly the best part, lots to visit around.

Living a Fairytale
This review is much belated simply because I wanted to find the time to sit down and try to write a review that would do this magnificent home and experience justice. Now almost a year later I have never been able to put into words my gratitude. We stayed at Chateau de Flora with family and friends celebrating three birthdays and a retirement. Needless to say the expectations were high. The owners met us at the house to welcome us and help us get settled in. From our first walk thought of the house we felt that we had tripped upon a fairytale. The entertaining rooms were majestic, steeped in history and always beckoning us to linger while the grounds outside called to us with the beautiful lawn that rolled down to the lake, a magical pond complete with a little arched bridge hidden amongst the reeds and of course the horses, cows and wildlife frolicking about.
The bedrooms upstairs were grand, beautiful and well cared for. What made Chateau de Flora has been added to, each person contributing another layer of their personality upon the previous. Some rooms are newly wallpapered and others were a very long time ago only adding to the fairytale character of the place. The chateau has just enough modern creature comforts to make a person feel comfortable but still experience the magic of living in a different world centuries apart from the one we actually live in.
The owner prepared and served several dinners for us - two outside so that we could enjoy the shade of the chateau in warm summer nights and three in the majestic dining room. One night the dining room was the backdrop to an elegant cocktail party and black tie dinner celebrating one of our grandmothers. It was an evening none of us will forget.
The grounds of Chateau de Flora were extensive and so much fun to explore that we only left the place twice in eight days even though we had planned many more excursions. We just count bear the thought of pulling ourselves out of the dream that was Chateau de Flora. We spent hours playing tennis, croquet, badminton, relaxing by the pool, swimming and indulging in long strolls through the woods, along the fields and through the old gardens.
Thank you to the wonderful hosts for their generations of guardianship of this magical place and for sharing with us. -
Book now!
Two families totalling 10 stayed at the chateau for a week and had the most amazing time. The property is a magnificent place to stay with wonderfully grand rooms in which to sleep and relax. Mme Portojoie cooked for us most evenings and the 3 course meals she prepared were delicious and were greatly enjoyed in the grand dining room - such an impressive room in which to dine. The on site amenities are just great - swimming pool, tennis court, bikes to ride, table tennis, boules, fishing...it really is a most magnificent place to stay. Christel, the owner, was so prompt and helpful with any questions I had before our trip began. Book now! You will not be disappointed!

I would recommend the chateau to anyone
12 of us (friends & family) stayed at the chateau to celebrate 60th, 30th and 21st birthdays. The setting was spectacular and the house was every bit as grand as we hoped it would be. It was extremely hot whilst we were there so having the pool was a godsend. We took the owner's advice and went on the wine tasting trip to the local vineyard which was excellent - we also had a chef's night which we thoroughly enjoyed. The chateau was spotless and all the beds and towels were changed mid-week. There was every modern convenience with a dramatic backdrop. I would recommend the chateau to anyone looking for something different and a chance to experience a genteel way of life - albeit briefly
-
What a fantastic time we all had at the chateau!
The weather was slightly too hot but we would definitely not complain about that. We loved the setting and the grandeur and we found lots to do within easy driving distance. The chefs night was excellent and a real highlight was our trip to the vineyard.
-
We look forward to another visit in the future!
We had a wonderful stay at the Chateau! The weather was absolutely perfect and we soaked up every bit of the scenery. We also had your cleaning lady cook dinner for us, it was delicious!

Really would love to return!
First family holiday with entire family (11 people, 3 generations), what a place to celebrate this! Chateau is a pretty building oozing character and ambiance. Loads of space both indoors and outdoors so no 'getting on top of each other' and plenty of places to retreat for your own peace and quiet. Outdoors was a real joy and against backdrop of the beautiful chateau. Very quiet location. Much fun spent in and around the pool (lovely 28c temp), cycling around the lake and paths (lots of different size bikes), excellent hard tennis court, and all sorts of games on the main lawn (which Tony the caretaker kindly mowed short for us). We had BBQs outside every evening and as night fell we gazed at the pollution-free sky at a myriad of stars including seeing some shooting stars! BBQ itself is a bit small, could do with larger size, but wasn't a problem as we grazed and in such a place time is not important! Double beds are a tad small (standard double), but then how much time does one spend there with so many delightful things to get up for starting with a family breakfast around the large round breakfast table! A lovely magical place, all our grandchildren asked to go again! Really would love to return!
-
Wonderful Stay!
Our family had the most wonderful time at your Chateau and exploring the local area. We are truly grateful for you enabling your lovely home that others can share. We feel very privileged. It is just not the building and park surrounds, but the fact that with all your personal features it really has the feel of a warm family home. Not just a house. We had the most divine weather and an unforgettable experience.
-
A Lovely Stay!
I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for making your lovely chateau available to all of us for our stay last week. The place is so charming, warm and full of history. We enjoyed everything! The pool the tennis courts, the kitchen, dining room and sitting outside for dinner and breakfasts. Madam was so kind as well as being a wonderful chef. We enjoyed her despite the fact that most of the group didn't speak French! As a matter of fact we argued about who was going to pack her up and take her home! Again, many many thanks and I hope one day we can repeat the trip with a stay at Chateau de Flora!
-
We Love it here!
We are so happy here! My husband and I are in the extra room and love the location of it in the house as the symphony of frogs in the pond and night creatures put us into a wonderful slumber last night. We feel so grateful that you and your family have chosen to share this magical place with us! We are LOVING every moment here. It is beyond perfect in every way.
-
Beautiful holiday
We had the best holiday of our lives. The property is more beautiful in real life then you can see on the pictures. Idyllic is the perfect word for this house. The pool and tennis court are in really great condition and we had so much fun. Beautiful!!!
-
Magical Chateau
In short, this is a charming chateau in the most beautiful location. We were two families, with six children in total, and there was plenty of space for us all. Beautiful spacious bedrooms with many bathrooms and a fully equipped modern kitchen. The swimming pool and tennis court are super and the gardens are huge! But most notably, you can see the care and attention from the lovely owners, thank you!
-
Wonderful family chateau
Magnificent chateau in beautiful surroundings. The chateau is perfect for families with children and is located close (but not too close) to town and places to visit. The tennis court was great and the pool wonderful. The hosts warmly welcomed us into this wonderful place. I hope to return one day.
-
Fantastic Holiday
We spent the most idyllic week at Chateau de Flora. We were 4 adults and 8 children and we all loved it. The children had plenty to do – swimming, tennis, table tennis and especially the horses, and everyone had a ride in the park.
Since our departure, we have spoken fondly of our trip to the chateau and we would love to return. -

We had a wonderful time, a lovely house and grounds. My thanks to you and all of the team on the ground who could not have been more helpful.

50th wedding anniversary
We would like to thank you again for allowing us to visit Chateau de Flora. It became such a success with our friends that they all promised we should meet again in exactly 50 years... You know that my wife and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary thanks to you!

It is the most beautiful place to be
It is the most beautiful, yet the most comfortable and lived in house you are ever likely to find, and it contains everything you could ever want or need for an incredible stay and more!

Chateau de Flora holds the memories of a lifetime
Chateau de Flora holds the memories of a lifetime for my family and me. This beautiful place is romantic and comfortable, awe inspiring and historical. We loved horseback riding at the local stables we enjoyed marvellous French meals. There were plenty of wonderful quiet places to settle in with a book or a sketchpad under a tree in the yard or in one of the large windows overlooking the pond. There were many hours spent exploring this exquisite place and its surrounding grounds. We played table tennis and tennis, visited markets, castles, and museums. We remember day trips to Mont St. Michel, Chenonceau, Angers, and Chambord. We hope to return again and again!
