About this house rental
The Vernelle house is located in the park of the 'Château des Ormeaux' (it is a outbuilding of 'Château des Ormeaux') on the 'route des vignobles', near part of the Amboise agglomeration (6 kilometers from the Château d'Amboise).
A bit of history: The 'Château des Ormeaux' close to the Vernelle house was built during the reign of Charles X. The original Château was built on Paul Scaron's lands in the 17th century. Before marrying Louis XIV, the marquise de Maintenon was married to Paul Scaron.
The Vernelle House accommodation is a beautiful 17th century construction. It was completely renovated in 2013. It is a fine example of traditional wine grower's house surrounded by a terrace.
You will be charmed by the subtle mix of contemporary and 18th century decoration styles. The ground floor is composed of a spacious open kitchen with dining area and extensive work surfaces. The living room is large and comfortable with a TV and desk area. The sofa converts to a small double bed. For your great comfort, there is a ground floor WC.
The upper floor consists of two independant bedrooms (Queen size beds) with en suite bathrooms and WC.
The outdoor terrace comes equipped with a charcoal barbecue for outdoor meals in the shade of two lime trees.
The Vernelle will charm you by its peaceful setting with views over bucolic countryside.

Summary of reviewsBeautiful, spacious house with welcoming hosts. Perfect base to explore the Loire Valley and enjoy the French countryside. Highly recommended for a peaceful and charming getaway.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
This property was the perfect location in the Amboise area for my husband and I to use as a base for day trips to the area castles. I wanted to stay a little outside Amboise, and I couldn't believe this cottage was available. I felt like we were living a dream! This cottage is quiet and safe, but also close to Amboise, a supermarket, restaurants, wine tasting, etc. The owner is delightful! She left us a bottle of wine and fresh tomatoes from the local market. All kitchen appliances were easy to use. All the rooms were comfortable and well appointed. The washer-dryer in the cottage was very convenient. We loved it and recommend it for families and couples. It was one of the highlights of our trip.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jul 2025
Lovely property in the heart of the Loire. Only problem was the heat-unusually hot for June meant difficulty in sleeping as no air conditioning (but fans were provided). Pascale was an excellent hostess.

Loved everything about this beautiful house. Location - although too far to walk into town, there was tranquility and reprieve from busy chateau towns. (Bolt service available in and out of town),Facilities- All home comforts in a tastefully decorated style. Great to have washing facilities after lengthy travel.Host - Pascale very friendly and obliging.Note: There is a steep winding staircase to upstairs bedrooms but after the first day, we learnt to conquer them!Thoroughly recommend La Vernelle
5.0 / 10.0·Apr 2018
We stayed four days and wished it had been longer. This is a special house, ideally positioned for the Loire Valley. Very clean and well presented, with large rooms and all the fittings and equipment needed. It is also especially quiet.Pascale was extremely helpful throughout. We had a minor problem (our fault), which she resolved in minutes of being contacted.Cannot be recommended enough.
