Leonardo & Vinci Cottages

Set on a winding lane near Amboise, these renovated farm cottages cluster around a central courtyard planted with lavender and roses. Twenty to sixty guests occupy the main hall and adjoining rooms, each with original stone walls and modern conveniences hidden behind period fixtures. Sleeping quarters distribute across three additional cottages, creating a private compound atmosphere where guests occupy separate entrances. The courtyard unfolds ceremonies on grass with surrounding buildings providing natural frames, requiring minimal additional decoration.
