Retreat from the world: Prieuré Notre-Dame d'Orsan

Prieuré d'Orsan is a former monastery dating to 1107 located in the Loire valley of France. Now a hotel, it offers guests a true respite from modern bustle and rooms blissfully absent of telephones or television. 
No less an attraction are the exquisite, medieval inspired gardens which also supply the delicious meals served to the Prieuré's happy visitors.
