Welcome to the Ferme de la Bretesche

Michèle and Jacques welcome you to the Ferme de la Bretesche!

Ideally located in Faverolles-sur-Cher, in the Centre region, right on the doorstep of the Loir-et-Cher and Indre-et-Loire tourist valleys, the Ferme de la Bretesche is the perfect starting point for exploring the Valley of the Kings and visiting the Loire Châteaux, as well as savouring the architecture, delicious local produce and beautiful scenery of the Loire Valley – listed as a Unesco World Heritage.

The guest rooms at La Bretesche, an old vinegrowers’ farm dating back to the 19th century, have been thoughtfully refurbished to offer you a relaxing and peaceful stay in elegant surroundings.

Get to know our region better with a few theme-based suggestions

A good way to set about exploring our region is to pick one of our selected themes!

With our B&B at La Bretesche nestling deep in the Valley of the Kings, there’s no better starting point for heading out, one day, to visit the many surrounding châteaux: Chenonceau, Amboise, Chaumont sur Loire, Chambord, Blois and let’s not forget Cheverny, Valencay, Montrésor, Loches, Montpoupon, Villandry, Azay le Rideau and of course Tours.

Another day, why not indulge in our region’s wines and good food? Don’t hold back on treating yourself to the myriad homegrown specialities this fertile land has on offer!

Michèle and Jacques also recommend taking the time to admire the natural environment of the Loire Valley, listed as a Unesco World Heritage: its breathtaking landscapes, walking trails and stunning gardens.

Last but not least, for those of you who want to see a different, more original or unusual side to our region, we have all sorts of ideas for rewarding and engaging outings, trips and walks.
