I was touring with the family in our motor home last year and kinda stumbled onto a campsite in the Loire Valley that was run by a nice french Family who happened to be keen MTBers when they spotted our bikes they took me and my lad out then i went out for a coulpe of rides with them. Had a great 3 days there (we were only passing through and meant to be just having a over night stop ) Some fantastic country side, weather, food and drink, Great single track and good company, only problem is we left with out jotting down the location (as we where only meant to be passing through) and that combined with the booze and the fact some toe rag stole my sat nav on the way home kinda meant by the time i got home i couldn't remember exactly where it was we stayed lol
Oh well we are back over there in 4 weeks time so I'm sure I'll find it again even if it means doing a few extra miles

All i can remember is it was close to chateau Renault and by a river but i guess that wont help the op lol

I'm going to be around there for the next three weeks, there's plenty of forest to explore, although I didn't have much time to go singletrack hunting last time I was there.
