About Centre Loire Valley

As it's located right in the middle of France, this region is cleverly called 'centre' (and some people call the French crazy). Centre is dominated by the Loire Valley which is listed as 'one of the loveliest detours in France'.

All through the seasons the organic environment of the valleys of the Loire and its eastern tributaries, the rivers Indre, Cher, Beuvron, Sauldre and Allier never cease to amaze tourists and locals alike with their natural beauty.

Why not take a visit to one of the many wineries in the region? The valley of the Loire produces 22 fine wines, including Menetou-Salon, Bourgueil, Sancerre, Valençay, Montlouis and Vouvray.

And if all that drinking, sorry, swilling and spitting, makes you a little hungry, why not sample some of the region's exceptional cheeses such Crottin de Chavignol, Selles-sur-Cher and Sainte-Maure de Touraine.
