La Magnanerie, site troglodytique

"What a lovely visit! Our guide was wonderful- we are, we knew the tour was in french but still wanted to visit (we only know basic french) - we got to try out the new headsets for the tour which worked very well. I can’t believe you let us in your home! (We didn’t want to leave) We were part of a small group who arrived for the tour (12-15 of us) it was a friendly and relaxed tour with interesting insights to the caves, their use and the troglodytes that lived there. Thank you!"

"What a wonderful attraction. The hosts (they are the residents) are friendly, helpful and informative; the live talks are in French, but there are electronic audio guides to help follow along, and the hosts will help fill in any gaps and take questions in English. Such a great chance to learn about the history of troglodytes in the area and silk production in Touraine. Well worth a visit."

"Great location, fabulous hosts and well worth a visit. We were the only English speakers on the tour but didn't not feel left out at any point. Lots of interesting facts and a beautiful home as well. Thanks from Manchester"

"Excellent visit by both Laurents. Very professional and informative commentary. The hill to access the estate on foot will be a bit strenuous for some but definitely worth the effort. Try and combine with the mushroom farm in the same village."

"First time been in a house caved inside a mountain or hill. It was unbelievably real but it is. And the tour operators/owners were very wonderful hosts."
