I will be traveling with a group of friends to the Loire Valley in June of 2009. We are looking for a large chateau, a swimming pool being a must. We are 4 families, each with 2 children ages 7 - 11. Any suggestions would be welcome.

The Loire is a large area. We have had good luck with www.gites-de-france.com/gites/uk/rural_gites. Its the program sponsored by the goverenment to get city people out to the country. They are listed by region and size. Many have multiple gites on site instead of everyone being together. The sometimes break down a large chateau into mutiple apartments for easier renting.
One site I used for last summer was gites-touraine.com/en/list-gites-piscine.php. That only covers the touraine region. They all have pools.
On both sites stick with 3 epis (ears of wheat) or better. That way you don%26#39;t end up in very rustic accomodations. The owners of the gites are either on site or close by which is nice. They are subsized by the government, so the prices is fairly reasonable.
