The Manoir had regained its peaceful life under the shelter of its great walls when it was opened to the public as a restaurant under the name LE MANOIR SAINT THOMAS by Francois and Martine LE COZ . Both have introduced cultural evenings marked by philosophical debates that have revived the spirit of the house and carried its brilliance far.
The name Saint-Thomas dates back to a priory founded in 1107 by Hugues I of Amboise, the most powerful lord in the Touraine region after the Count of Anjou, who then gave it to the Abbaye de Pont-Levoy.
The house, which was later to become the Manoir Saint-Thomas, belonged to Jean Rouer, an officer of the King's Court, at the start of the 18th century. He had married Catherine Pommiers in the "Saint-Thomas Priory chapel" in 1685.
In 1726, his daughter received the "building in the Great Market on Saint-Thomas priory" as a dowry. In 1776, she sold the building (two corps de logis and a courtyard with large double doors, all enclosed within walls which stretched north along the Amasse) to the Pathault family who would own it until 1986. At the end of the 19e century, extensive renovations were carried out. Visitors can still admire the ceiling in the great hall signed "Ripault 1887 Tours". After the departure of François le Coz, the house was transformed into a hotel.
Now completely RENOVATED, this historic residence has all the contemporary comforts of a 4 star hotel.
