My wife and I stayed at La Sorellerie while returning north by car from Bordeaux to CDG Airport. We had hoped to resurrect a balloon flight over the Loire that had been cancelled due to weather on our southbound leg, but it was not to be. Winds, you know? A major consolation was this excellent B&B. The room was comfortable, spacious and spotless, The bed was very comfortable. Parking was ample and secure. The bathroom was large and beautiful. The common spaces were elegant, and we were made very much at home. The neighborhood was quiet, with only the occasional sounds of children playing in the distance. Veronique's breakfast, much of it homemade, was superb. The cat was quite agreeable. We used the time freed from our twice-aborted balloon flight to make the quick drive into Tours and spend a few hours strolling the boulevards. (Basilique Saint Martin and Charlemagne's Tower are spectacular sights.) There's more to Tours than the Chateaux! We sincerely regretted that our flight would depart Paris the following day. A longer stay would have been delightful. There are lower priced B&Bs, of course, but we found La Sorellerie to be most fairly priced given the levels of quality and service. It's highly recommended; we would return in a heartbeat.
