| THE
HISTORY OF LA CHOUANNIERE
Tuffeau is the special white building stone of Anjou and the Loire Valley that lends such elegance to the chateaux and beautiful houses. Its geological characteristics make it ideal for mushroom cultivation, wine cellars and the construction of troglodyte dwelling caves, all of which can be visited near the banks of the river Loire.
La Chouanniere has seen many
transformations over the years, from a farm building used for calving, to an art
gallery, and then a sculptors studio, some of whose works can still be seen.
Now it is the home of Gilles and Patricia who converted it into a Guest House
in July 2000. | Book
