Villa Alecya

An amazing building superbly maintained. Belle Epoque architecture on a scale I have never before witness. All sorts of curious nooks and crannies inside and out. Seventeen of us spent a long weekend here and there was more than enough room for us to spread out and enjoy the amenities. Would recommend Villa Alecya to anybody.

From the moment you arrive Anna unlocks the magical beauty of this magnificent Villa - there is no where quite like it. Every aspect of this building is a work of art and the experience of staying here is transformative. We stayed in 'Madam Butterfly' which was beautiful having a small balcony leading from an elegant and modern shower room which overlooked the tree canopy - a lovely place to watch the sun go down with a glass of wine. Anna showed us all of the rooms and every one was utterly magnificent down to the last detail having items in each to delight and entertain. Each room was quite literally enchanting and on our return (because we simply fell in love with it) we will choose 'Ernest but Wilde', because of its sophisticated splendour. If you want to push the boat out go for the top floor with a sauna and whirlpool bath that will blow your mind. I could have spent hours just sitting and taking the whole place in, wanting to see all of its secret beauty. This is a place that warrants many visits, for the building, but also for it's hosts too who were considerate and charming and as wonderful as the house. There is a small and pleasant restaurant only a few minutes walk up the road in the village should you arrive on an evening when dinner is not being prepared at the Villa, modestly priced and good. Breakfast was a delight of home grown fruit and home made produce. An excellent place to stay if viewing the Chateaus along the Loire, Chinon being only a few minutes drive away. Visit - you will not be disappointed.

A truly magnificent villa . The owner is a true and gracious gentleman whose pride of his and his wife's accomplishments is well deserved. Our only regret is not spending more time in this fabulous villa. Definitely the high-lite of our trip to France.

From the time you pull into the gate you realize you have arrived at a very special place. The owner is there to greet you and show you your room you have chosen. Everywhere you look in the house you will find carefully thought out decorations that exude the excellent taste of the hosts. You immediately feel at home and are instantly asked if there is anything you need. If are looking for a place to relax or just call home for a while, Villa Alecya is the place to go.

We stayed here for one night as it was near a friend’s wedding. We had a fantastic stay. The refurbished villa is beautiful with characterful rooms and the hosts are so accommodating (I stupidly forgot my tie, but they found spares). Breakfast is great with delicious homemade ingredients. We’ll be back at some point!

My wife and I stayed here in September for 5 nights. My wife was pregnant at the time and Ana and Christoph couldn’t have been more accommodating! They are so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much. Breakfast is beautiful and more than you could ever eat with lots of homemade jams. Ana’s food is amazing if you’re lucky enough to try it (especially the Duck!). This was our first holiday after all the lock downs and we were so happy to have found them. We can’t recommend them highly enough! X

This is one of the best Bed & Breakfasts we have ever stayed. This Villa is magnificent and the owners are have turned it into a gem stone.It is a charming turn-of-the-century villa in a wonderful and spacious garden. We also enjoyed a very good dinner and a wonderful breakfast in the garden served by the lovely owners. Unforgettable!

I'm not usually the luckiest person in the world but this time I knocked it off. My original booking at another villa was cancelled then I found Villa Alecya which looked the best way to celebrate the engagement of Sharon and myself. We cannot praise the hospitality of Anna and Christophe highly enough. From the moment of arrival to exiting the gates on departure, you could not do it without one last look over your shoulder. There is a moment that will live with us forever. On our third morning there was another couple at breakfast. Anna was showing us the old wind up gramaphone and put a record on and we all started discussing music and dance. The elderly lady started dancing showing her moves from days gone by, next to the modern and Alexa throws out some disco, no stopping her now! what a way to start the day. Sharon and I stayed four nights and used it as our base to visit sites around. One night will never give you the full Anna and Christophe experience which including a night where dinner was made for us. Also there is an Auberge nearby with good food and drink. You have now read this far you must experience this villa. It may seem remote but is in a most beautiful area and with a car there is so much around to see. We loved our stay and thank you so much, it was an unforgettable experience. One night will never be enough....
