Welcome to our house carved into the rock
This holiday home, overlooking the Loire, offers absolute peace and quiet. It is nestled in a preserved natural environment, within a wine-growing village classified as a “Petite Cité de Caractère” and listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The ideal location between castles, vineyards and the good life
The house is located a stone’s throw from the vine-covered hillsides that produce the famous AOC Vouvray wine, where you can stroll through the vineyards. Explore the troglodytic cellars and enjoy unforgettable tastings, notably at Maison Brédif, Château Gaudrelle or Château Moncontour.
You can enjoy the marked trails between the Loire and the vineyards, or cycle along the Loire to Tours or Amboise.
In summer, experience the festive atmosphere of the Guinguette de Rochecorbon: dance evenings, convivial meals, entertainment and outdoor activities for young and old alike.
Foodies will appreciate the proximity of the Michelin-starred restaurant Les Hautes Roches. A tasty stop not to be missed, just a five-minute walk away.
For food lovers, don’t miss the famous Maison Hardouin charcuterie in Vouvray: rillettes, rillons, andouillettes… All the local specialities to take away, 7 minutes from the house, open 7 days a week.
