A 15th century townhouse with a stunning hanging walled rose garden situated in the citadelle ramparts at the foot of the Royal City. The property can accommodate up to eight people. La Roseraie de la Poterie is located in the heart of the historic town.
The central location provides amazing views of the 10th c Dungeon as you come out of the front door! With free parking opposite the house, this is a calm, central neighbourhood that is so convenient for all the monuments, shops and restaurants and sports facilities that Loches has to offer.
Loches is a riverside town. The serpentine Indre runs through Loches - a small twisting current makes it challenging for anglers who like to dangle along the banks, right in the heart of town. Cave-dwellings and troglodytes abound along the river valley, providing much of the white, chalky limestone typical of the region. Loches has many fine restaurants, cafés, and bistros... the advantage of renting the house within the citadelle walls is that you can drink and dine without need for a car.

The artist owners of the house live in a garden flat while the house rented, which has its own separate garden entrance to assure the privacy and independence of guests.
