The Loire Valley is one of France's most popular areas for visitors so there's plenty of accommodation to consider. But if you're planning a trip to the Loire Valley, think of staying in a chambre d'hote, or bed and breakfast. You'll get great accommodation and very good value for money as well as the chance to meet local people who can give you some insider tips on what to see.
The Loire Valley is a glorious place to visit. It was the playground of the kings and aristocracy of France, so the châteaux are dotted along the riverside like jewels in a queen's necklace.
