O Trois Oliviers

The garden boasts three olive trees that were planted by the original owners, Michel and Jocelyne, and we have named each of the rooms after a well-known French variety of olive.​

Graeme and Alison travelled extensively for work over many years and their experience of hotels and guest houses informed the refurbishment of the three rooms.  All are all en-suite  and are well-furnished with plenty of charging points for the large number of electrical items that we all carry around these days.  The bedside lights even incorporate a USB point for easy phone-charging!

They are well-appointed and offer space to work and relax in comfort, and all enjoy views over the pretty gardens.​

The house stands on the ancient route of the Kings of England at the heart of the Thouet valley, rich in Gallo-Roman history. It offers easy access to the nearby mediaeval towns of St Loup-sur-Thouet, Airvault and Parthenay, all of which offer good restaurants, markets and places of interest.  The nearby Lac du Cèbron is a protected ornithological site of special interest and offers indoor and outdoor sporting activities.
