A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Loire Valley is studded with great châteaux and their gardens, many within thirty minutes drive of St.Georges.
The nearby historic riverside towns of Chinon and Saumur have varied tourist attractions and the regional capital of Tours is just forty minutes away.
For the culinary connoisseur, the Loire Valley offers so much to see and do. Being a world famous wine growing region, there are many opportunities to sample fine wines.
For cycling enthusiasts ‘pedaling’ is a delight, not a challenge. The lanes are quiet and gently undulate as they traverse a sea of vines under seemingly endless blue skies.
Bourgueil market, held every Tuesday is only a stones throw away from
St. Georges.
During the summer months, local towns and villages stage regular music events, firework displays and ‘fêtes’. These are usually free to attend and you will find the locals very friendly.
