Fab house! What a lovely property! Lots of space. We were a big family group, mixed ages. The pool was a godsend as the weather was tres chaud! Beautiful sunsets. The place was very well equipped. The owner was very communicative and helpful to my queries. Nothing was too much trouble. Really nice to receive some wine and coffee on arrival too. What a wonderful holiday we have had! Sad it’s over
We are just back from a lovely week at Le Jardin Des Fleurs. It was all fantastic. The location was gorgeous, and the house itself was so well stocked with everything we needed, everything had been thought of. The pool was a huge hit with the kids and adults alike, and as an extra bonus it was heated, which made it very pleasant at a time of year when temperatures might be less predictable. Having said that we were blessed with excellent weather! We were able to travel around in the area and Carcassonne, Toulouse, Mirepoix and Castres were easy to get to. The boulangerie in St Felix Lauragais was just 10 or so minutes away by car and the pastries were exceptional. We wouldn't hesitate to return
Amazing lunch spreads on the big table every day accompanied by tasing of rose and red wine. Stunning BBQ dinners every evening. Sitting by the pool, staring at the view and saying 'wow'! on a regular basis. Kids very happy in the cinema for slightly too many hours! What a stunning pace and what a privilege to have visited here. Thank you. Look forward to returning one day.
Steven and Bruce have a fantastic place and they really went the extra mile to make our stay totally enjoyable. We've been staying at places in France for 20 or so years and we always come back fairly pleased, but perhaps with one or two thoughts about how something or other could have been better, but I think this is the first time we've come back and been unable to think of anything that was less than perfect.
A relaxing, rustic but luxurious holiday. We had an absolutely superb stay in Manoir Gascon. We were a large family group with a range of ages from 10 - 75, but the manor house catered for everyone with its ample reception rooms, games barn and pool. The manor house is so beautiful and has lot of French rustic charm, but was also very peaceful so we had a truly relaxing stay drinking wine by the pool! The village is a short walk down a country lane and we had a delicious Sunday lunch in the village hotel. We hope to stay at Manoir Gascon again some time soon!
We have so enjoyed our week here in our very own secret garden. Who would imagine there would be such a magical place waiting for us, just a second from the road? After many moments of uncertainty, it has been a huge tonic to relax in the sunshine in this beautiful garden and enjoy relaxing with our daughters. We haven’t explored very much beyond the Loft, but the countryside is beautiful, the wine and food delicious and the canoeing trip exhilarating and at times a little scary! Karen and Russell are the perfect hosts - always present but never in your space. They have created a perfect holiday home - immaculate and brilliantly equipped, and the fridge and cupboards generously filled to enhance your welcome and stay. We have enjoyed hours by the perfect pool and will fondly remember our 2021 say here. Hopefully we will be back! Thank you, Karen and Russell for everything.
Wow! You have a piece of perfection right here! I've been so relaxed during 2 weeks here. The pool has been my solace along with the hot sunshine. L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue is a lovely place with lots of lovely shops and fantastic markets. Thank you for letting us stay. I hope to return.
We had such a lovely week at Les Cabannes with 3 generations of our family... A fantastic, well equipped, welcoming house in a beautiful place, set in so much space for everyone to do their own thing, if they so desire. Les Cabannes really is in perfect seclusion but not isolation - plenty of wonderful things to see and do nearby, if you can persuade yourself (or anyone) to leave the pool!
Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful villa with us and giving us the chance to experience a little slice of life in this very special corner of France. Arriving from Ireland and Scotland, we now leave with memories of slow mornings, long lunches, cheese, wine, winding roads through vineyards and beautiful long evenings listening to the church bells. With happy hearts, full glasses and very reluctant goodbyes , until next time.
We were so impressed with the quality of this home with a high contemporary finish in every room. The kitchen and lounge dinner opens onto an exquisite terrace with far reaching views and ideal for outdoor dinning . Loved the pool area with private patio. This is in the centre of a charming village with all amenities. The unspoilt coastline is stunning and to think it's under an hour from the airport. We would strongly recommend this home and we can't wait to return. Did we forget to mention it's also exceptional value for money.
Wonderful house in a small willage, two steps away from all amenities you may need during your stay. Air conditioning is a must, so is the pool which offers a perfect privacy. The summer kitchen is very appreciable. Linda is also available and very kind. I 100% validate. Thanks for all. Mélanie
Fantastic 10 days at Maison Joutard. The highlights:- Fantastic welcome pack. House and garden perfect for our toddlers. Equipped with everything we needed. We visited Cognac, Bordeaux, Villefagnan. Cycling to the bakery in Verdille. Whole experience highly recommended.
Thank you for allowing us to share your beautiful home. Despite the unseasonable weather we had a fantastic time here and have thoroughly enjoyed the house, pool and gardens. The views are spectacular. Frédéric is a gem, he has been so very friendly and welcoming, always contactable and helpful even in the thunderstorm and following power cut. We will take away photos and memories that will last long into the future.
This is the second time we’ve holidayed with Oliver’s Travels, this time via Pure France and we’ve been just as impressed this time round! All dealings have been professionally and efficiently executed and we really can’t fault any area, in fact we’re full of praise
We are now back at home and I wanted to send you my most sincere thanks for your welcome at Maison de Saint-Jean. Your house is magnificent. It combines the charm of an old farmhouse with the comfort of modern and stylish equipment. There were 6 of us but the house can accommodate 8 people. It is especially the exteriors that we adored. Even though the weather was not very comfortable this summer, we enjoyed the very large garden, the endless view and the heated swimming pool. We will definitely come back because the region is still worth a few detours and your house is the perfect base for visiting it. See you soon.
We recently enjoyed a wonderful family holiday at Pearl Azure. The property was immaculate and the owners had thought of everything we might need. The house was very spacious and well equipped. It was very hot whilst we were there, so we appreciated the air con which was very effective and also really enjoyed our time cooling off in the swimming pool. The location was great and enabled us to visit lots of places along the coast and the hill towns either by public transport (train and buses) or ubers so that a car wasn’t required. We ate out at some great local restaurants and also made good use of the gas BBQ and enjoyed eating on the terrace. The house is in a quiet residential area and it was possible to walk to the train station and large supermarket within 10 minutes or walk down to the beach in 15 minutes. Nice airport is a short drive away. All in all, it was a great stay.
Excellent holiday stay, villa wonderful, spacious pool, fantastic for weather. Host Lisbeth very helpful, nothing too much problem, always contact by telephone, only used to confirm departure. Bessan pretty village, all amenities here and close to beaches, Pézenas and Béziers. Thank you Lisbeth for 2-week relaxing holiday.
Perfect! It has been sheer bliss to have spent the week in this wonderful chateau. Chateau Les Tourelles was the perfect setting to gather my twelve dearest friends to a celebration!
We've had a lovely week here at the villa. It's been especially good for our youngest family member who has really enjoyed playing here. We loved the heated pool, especially when the clouds come over the fun can continue. Absolutely recommend a trip to see Carcassonne for those wanting a day trip, but remember to check what is open. Thanks so much, we hope to come back soon.
We had a lovely week at Maison Brunet. The rural location was really peaceful and you made us feel really welcome during our stay. The house is furnished with a sense of style but still felt homely and the kitchen area had all we could ask for. WiFi worked well so that kept our teenage daughters very happy. We particularly enjoyed lunches and our evening meals out on the patio. As I mentioned while we were there, the pool and surrounding area are spectacular and made for a memorable holiday for us .
It was everything we dreamed it would be and more. We loved the pool and the house had all we needed for a great holiday.
Very much enjoyed our stay in your lovely villa. The decor and outside space is fantastic! Would definitely stay another 2 weeks if we could!
A lovely accommodation. We are delighted with the accommodation at Manoir Altheas - very lovely and all works beautifully.
We have just returned from a month in France staying at Domaine de Laure. We had a simply lovely time. Before we went, we did have some reservations about the fact that the property was attached to the owners house. We really do value privacy and experience has indicated that this can be compromised when this is the case. In fact it turned out out that we had the best of both worlds - help whenever we needed it - Pierre and Benedict were charming - and total privacy at all other times. The house is comfortable, clean and well equipped. The king size beds and English TV were a bonus. The pool was clean and well maintained. But for us, it was the location and the total peace that were particularly special - even better than the photographs. The views were beautiful and the grounds very spacious. The only intrusion was the gentle tinkling of goat bells…magic! We have no hesitation in highly recommending Domaine de Laure.
Thank you so much for enabling us all to relax completely in your amazing home! Upon our arrival, you were so accommodating and kind, recommending we make ourselves at home. After a luxurious soak in your swimming pool (and bath!!) we settled down for a really electrifying night enjoying a storm that lit up the skies and land all around. The next morning was spent at Issigeac market, sampling the local food and checking out the boutiques and atelier craft shops. The rest of the day and next two days were spent relaxing, reading, painting and playing in the pool with our son. Your pool is amazing!! And the hours passed so quickly and James just didn’t want to get out. (You've created a wonderful piece of heaven Florence) The rest of the week was spent checking out the local area including: La Roque Saint Christophe and Maison Forter de Reignac to discover how things have changed here over the past 55,000 years of human settlement. (Highly recommended……along with a trip to Lascaux, Montignac - Amazing!!) Le Chateau de Biron and Monpazier between showers. This has proved to be a really relaxing vacation. We’ve had a fabulous time and felt very much “at home”. Thanks so much Florence.You’ve created a wonderfully luxurious abode! Au revoir!
A fantastic holiday home in a fantastic location. We had an amazing two weeks. Great food - wine - people. Very dog friendly
Our second stay at 'Mel's place', the first was in 2012. Returned with 2 more grand children and a grand son's girlfriend. Have stayed in many houses over the years - this is by far the best. Brilliant pool for everyone, loads of space for the children to play and a secret garden if you want to get away from it. We didn't go far - we just enjoyed the opportunity for us all to get together for a relaxing holiday. Also there is so much equipment and toys for the children - Mel's thought of everything, an excellent host.
A bewitching house, beautiful grounds, a wonderful old piano - thanks for having it restored and tuned in time for our course. What more could we ask!
Thank you so much for...... everything! You have both been incredible - from your patience over the booking; your reassurances over Covid in France, and the amazing steps you've taken to protect your guests, ( we cannot imagine anyone could do more ), to providing my daughter with a very much appreciated birthday cake ( delicious, by the way ). Always being at the end of the phone and let's not forget the incredible 'Loft' - it is beautiful - calm and relaxing, spotlessly clean. Your attention to detail is excellent. We have all had a wonderful time and return to England feeling refreshed and nurtured.
