About this property

Luxurious apartment with terrace and private parking in the center of Tours

The "Jardin des Amandiers" is a rare apartment on the ground floor of an old 15th c. Manor of the Order of the Knights Templar. (not accessible to people with reduced mobility) It features a private parking, a great garden, a great living room, a great bed, a great freestanding bath, a great cinema screen... in the greatest calm right in the center of Tours.
Pass the entrance porch, cross the courtyard and the second garden before reaching your flat. You can lunch on the terrace, on the large teak table, or walk straight into the kitchen.
Why not indulge in a authentic Italian espresso, made with beans freshly ground in the coffee machine?
Or perhaps you'll want to settle on the leather sofa to calmly prepare your day's schedule. The wifi fibre connection allows you to surf at very high speed.
The large remote control allows you to lower the projection screen and manage all the home cinema equipment. You can watch TV programmes or blu-ray movies either from the sofa or from a queen bed set on a platform.

Historical information :
The house was built during the unification of the city of Tours in the 12th c., as part of Henri II Plantagenet's city wall project. It belonged to the Commandery of the Order of the Knights Templar. The oldest remaining parts date back from the 15th c. The main building is set over two storeys of vaulted cellars from which several underground passages allowed inhabitants to escape and find refuge, for instance in the Cathedral.
Joan of Arc is said to have stayed there when she came to Tours in 1429 to have her armour made by Master Armorer Colas de Montbazon whose workshop was in the same neighbourhood, in the Rue Colbert.

A Very Pleasant Surprise!
After a long and tiring day of travel, arriving at Les Jardine Des Amandiers was a wonderful and pleasant surprise. Jean-Philippe was very welcoming and helpful with recommendations. The apartment had everything you could possibly need to ensure your stay was comfortable and the location very convenient. It was also a very beautiful apartment!

Great location and parking
We loved the location and the free secure parking. There were a few negatives. One was that the website claims air conditioning and there is none. There are many sharp corners on the dining table, the coffee table and the bed. The shower results in a lot of water that you must mop up each time you shower. There are little steps up to the bed and then to the bathroom that are a concern in the middle of the night. The property manager was great but we will not return,

Beautiful, and great location
This apartment is a hidden gem. It is well located within the center of town, so close to the restaurant's, walking distance to the railway station, and the parking makes it the ideal location to explore the region around tours. We stayed for several nights, and it was the perfect base to return to. The design of the apartment is idyllic. Nothing better than sitting outside, enjoying the fading sun with a glass of the local wine.

Stylish apartment in a prime location.
Well equipped modern apartment in a 14th century building, a bit of a paradox but it works beautifully. The apartment is in a secluded courtyard with gated access and has its own allocated parking space in a nearby parking lot. The old quarter of Tours is literally just around the corner and the Loire is a two minute stroll. A perfect base for exploring Tours and its surrounding area at a very reasonable price.
