Any recommendations? We would be staying for approx. 2 weeks in mid to late September. Thanks
Several of Rick's guidebook listings for "Near Amboise" (pages 388-390) do have on-site restaurants with optional dinners. Further out, a chateau hotel where our tour groups have stayed is http://www.icastelli.net/en/chateau-de-la-bourdaisiere; their garden features a wide array of tomatoes and dahlias.
Google "logis de france amboise" for a selection of small hotels (B&B type) in or near Amboise.
