About this house rental
Completely renovated in 2012, this XVI th century house is a typical regional house with a "troglo" room (in the rock).
Renovated by a team of local specialised builders using traditional techniques under the responsibility of a certified architect, the Tortue de Leonardo offers you all modern equipments and comfort in a traditional and historical place.
Located against the hill between the Chateau d'Amboise and the Clos Lucé (where da Vinci lived his last years), la Tortue is a jewel made of tradition and peacefullness in one of the most attractive town in France.
Professionally decorated, la Tortue will allow you to relax in a region made of tradition and history. Indeed, on top of the many castles (Amboise, Chenonceau, Chambord.....) you will have the possibility to discover le Clos Lucé, the Chanteloup Pagoda, the Touraine Aquarium, many wine producers and for the more adventurous tree climbing, Kayak, hot air balloons....

Great location and truly a unique property. We loved both the cave room and the main house and would love to stay here again for any future trip to the Loire Valley.

Amazing location, we had a family stay here and the house had its quirks which we loved, eg the spiral staircase and overall history of the property.It is a short walk to town and the kids had a great time.

We had a lovely stay in Amboise.Parking was a bit tricky due to renovations but, the place was charming & close to all the sites we wanted to visit.The cave felt too moist to sleep in but, a cool feature.
