Our Story

Hi there, we are Fabrizio and Charlene, a young binational couple that has been traveling around the world for a decade and we both speak three languages. We decided to settle down in the Loire Valley as Charlene’s family is from the region and Fabrizio loved it when he first came in France.
Our background is hospitality, customer service is what we know and we are pleased to share our “little castle” with people from far away. We want to welcome visitors from abroad, help them discover our region and be sure they have an amazing time. We know how difficult it can be to fully enjoy your holiday when you do not speak the local language.

Lapis Domus

(from latin language “House of stones”)

We are 1km away from Chenonceau, one of the most famous castle of the “Royal Area” which goes from Chambord to Saumur.
Our Region is beautiful and there is so much to see and eat, we will make sure you don’t miss out and give you plenty of advice.
Once on premises, if you feel like it, we can tell you the story of our amazing house around a glass of vin de Touraine.

We have more than 1 hectare of land and you welcome to have a walk around and discover the different areas to relax: beside the stream with a drink and the feet in water, under the oak Jean-Jacques Rousseau, in the forest, or say hello to our chickens. You can take the Communal path passing along the land to have a walk up to the village or down to Chenonceau. Ours is a relaxing place where you can calm down for a while, without any other customers around.

You have your own private room in nature’s mist. Be aware that there is wildlife around here, you might see some animals other than a dog or chickens, from squirrels and birds to deer and wild boars.
