Le Choiseul

Summary

Charm and refinement, painting and sculpture exhibitions, gastronomy – the essential ingredients of French art de vivre. Le Choiseul immerses you in the experience that is the Loire Valley.

Historically, Château d’Amboise is one of the most important of the great Loire châteaux. It was the home of kings, visited by Catherine de’Medici and said to be the burial place of Leonardo da Vinci. Below the ramparts is an 18th-century residence set within Italianate terraced gardens overlooking the river – this is Le Choiseul.

The rooms are cheerfully, if not luxuriously, appointed. The cuisine is light and typical of the region, while scented terraces and gardens provide an unexpected intimacy. With its charming and friendly family atmosphere, you’re ensured of a delightful encounter.
