Clos Sainte Catherine Bed & Breakfast Rochefort-sur-Loire

Review by hotel critic

I recently spent a delightful Christmas at Clos Sainte Catherine, and it was the perfect escape from the hustle of city life. Set on a hill in Rochefort-sur-Loire, the views from the terrace are simply breathtaking, especially at sunset when the landscape is painted gold. Vanessa, the charming host, welcomed us with warmth and a cheeky glass of their superb organic wine, which truly set an inviting tone for our stay. The spacious room we stayed in was a lovely blend of character and modern convenience with thoughtful design touches; I particularly appreciated the Nespresso machine for that morning pick-me-up. Breakfast was glorious—whether you opted for the continental spread or the à la carte delights, there was something for everyone, all prepared to perfection. For those who enjoy nature, the beautifully maintained garden beckons for a stroll, and the chance to explore the nearby hiking trails was a fantastic bonus. With free WiFi and private parking, Clos Sainte Catherine combines comfort with artistic flair, making it a hidden gem for anyone looking to experience a creative holiday. Highly recommend this lovely spot—I'm already planning my next visit!
