Stay in a lived-in castle-monastery in the Loire Valley. Five distinctive rooms, calm surroundings, historic immersion and a natural base for exploring.
What if your stay took place in a genuine castle-monastery, set within a 150-hectare estate, between Loches and Montrésor, and within easy reach of Chenonceau and Beauval Zoo?
A former Carthusian monastery, La Corroirie is an inhabited historic monument where centuries still resonate through stone and landscape. Each room opens quietly onto history, combining contemporary comfort with a monastic sense of calm.
Five rooms, five distinct atmospheres, each offering a different way of experiencing the castle. Every room has its own relationship to silence, history and landscape, inviting guests to take their time.
Facing the setting sun, this light-filled room features a freestanding bathtub and views over the moats and the park. A natural choice for settling in over several days, between Montrésor and Chenonceau, and letting time slow down.
A romantic way to stay in the heart of Touraine, with a freestanding bathtub and views over the church, the rose garden and the artworks in the grounds. A room well suited to shared escapes that unfold naturally over time.
A medieval immersion at the heart of the castle-monastery of La Corroirie, between Montrésor and Loches. Without an exterior view, but furnished with remarkable period pieces, it offers an enveloping atmosphere for a stay outside of time.
A sober, light-filled and contemplative space, with views over the moats, the woodland and the distant horizon. A quiet refuge, well suited to restorative stays, close to Beauval Zoo and Loches.
Monastic simplicity and deep silence define this intimate room. Particularly appreciated for writing, reading or inward retreats, it offers a secluded setting near Chenonceau and Montrésor.
Fresh bread and croissants baked on site, homemade jams, honey from our own beehives, farmhouse yoghurt and seasonal fruit. Each morning, breakfast becomes a quiet ritual, served in the great hall of the castle.
Orange juice is pressed to order, easing the day gently into motion, before setting out to explore the Loire Valley châteaux or the paths of the surrounding forest.
Depending on the season and the moment, we may also offer a soft goat’s cheese from Sainte-Maure-de-Touraine AOC, to be enjoyed without haste.
A simple and unhurried moment that sets the rhythm of the stay, inviting each day to begin in calm, surrounded by history and the Forest of Loches.
They took the time to stay at La Corroirie. Their words reflect, better than we could, what unfolds here day after day.
“Wonderful Chateau with great rooms and an excellent breakfast. Touring the buildings and grounds makes this a truly worthwhile destination, not just a place to stop overnight.”
— Douglas Reeve
“We stayed at la Corroirie for 3 nights, it was a great way to recharge our batteries. The chateau and monastery were founded almost a millennium ago… A great base to explore Montresor, Loches and the Loire Valley.”
— Andrey Terekhov
“Magic place in the middle of the Loire Valley that takes you back to different times. Highly recommended as your base if you visit the area.”
— Monica Lagazio
Many guests leave with the same feeling: one night is not enough to truly understand this place.
For greater independence during your stay, a well-equipped shared kitchenette is available at all times. It allows guests to organise their days freely, whether for an impromptu supper, a picnic in the forest, or a simple meal after a day of exploration.
You will find an oven, a microwave, a kettle, a coffee machine, a shared refrigerator and all the necessary crockery, making it easy to take your time and remain free from fixed schedules.
A small selection of local products is also available: drinks, regional treats, and the well-known terrines by chef Fabrice Dallais, for simple meals that respect the quiet atmosphere of the place.
To accompany visits to the markets of Loches or Montrésor, everything is provided to enjoy the flavours of Touraine at your own pace. → Discover our selected restaurants and local addresses
The castle-monastery of La Corroirie is more than a place to stay. It is a natural starting point for exploring the Loire Valley at your own pace, where nature, heritage and the art of living come together. From the estate, paths lead directly into the Forest of Loches, around the pond and through the surrounding countryside, on foot or by bicycle.
Depending on the day and the moment, the treasures of Touraine reveal themselves just a short distance away: the royal town of Loches, the village of Montrésor, or Chédigny, known for its roses.
Within thirty minutes, the most emblematic Loire Valley châteaux — including Chenonceau and Amboise — as well as Beauval Zoo, naturally find their place within a balanced stay, combining discovery with time to return and rest at the castle.
