Vacation Rentals in Saumur, France

Located in the heart of the Anjou vineyards, the medieval town of Saumur is surrounded by the Chateau of the Dukes of Anjou and overlooks the Loire River. In the center of town, you'll find a variety of different places to stay, from hotels to bed and breakfasts. The city of Sumur is relatively small, so you'll never be too far away from anything and it's easy to explore on foot or by bicycle. However, if you prefer accommodations with a little more serenity, then you'll want to look for a vacation rental in the surrounding villages like Le Bois Brard and Le Vaulanglais.

Saumur is a picturesque little town with brightly colored buildings and a massive castle that stands watch over the area. Speaking of which, you'll want to prioritize paying a visit to the Château de Saumur, historically used as a residence, prison, fortress, and now serving as a museum. Of course, as a region that's known for its wine production, you can spend a day or two exploring some of the many vineyards in the area, like Caves Louis de Grenelle. We also recommend that you experience the Église Notre-Dame-de-Nantilly at some point during your trip. Additionally, you can go a little further out of town to see a few of the other historical landmarks in the area, like the Abbaye Royale de Fontevraud, Château de Marson, and the Manoir de Launay.

With some of the best local ingredients and wines in the region, it should come as no surprise that Saumur offers excellent choices of places to eat, including Michelin-star restaurants and fancy rooftop bars. Bistrot de la Place in the Old Town area is one of many local and friendly restaurants that serve delicious food in the evening. However, there are many eateries like Le Boeuf Noisette in the old quarter of the town, where you can find croissants and sandwich shops tucked away on the corner of a cobblestone street.

In Saumur, the summers are usually warm and sunny, while the winters are cold and stormy, so the best time to visit is during the summer season.
