Our next five days were booked into Maison Gaspard in the heart of Saumur. A drive past some chateau and a lunch stop had us at the apartment to discover we had been swapped rooms. After a somewhat heated discussion with the lady manager we tried to make do. Visited the impressive cahteau on the hill above and enjoyed a couple of meals in the area around our inadequate apartment, but on the third day we decamped to a lovely renovated cottage near Chinon for the next three days.
Gail and I revisited Usses and Azay de Rideau chateaux and with the Langfords enjoyed Langeias castle. Relaxing and being able to cook in our little cottage was a treat.
