It had been a sweltering week, with an equally unbearable weekend on tap. Fortunately, M, the Berlin connection, had booked us into the Manoir de la Maison Blanche, a charming 17th chambre d’hote in Amboise.

Just an a hour by TGV to Tours and a quick 25km by rental car in the heart of chateau and wine country, the Manoir offers a relaxing antidote to the pace of Paris. Designated a landmark, the grounds and exterior of the original building remain undisturbed. Annick has added smaller buildings to enhance capacity.
Breakfasts are bountiful– fresh orange juice, croissants, rolls, baguette, cheese, homemade confiture and coffee and assorted teas.
