Great Location

Colombian Edinburgh
Review Submitted: October 6, 2009 Date of Stay: September 2009
The owners have taken great care to ensure that you arrive fully armed with information about how to get there, what to expect at Les Trois Oliviers and basic information about the area. This well equipped property is in a great location, afffording a wonderful view of the surrounding area, as well as being well placed to get to the coast if sea and sand is what you are after, or the hills to the north, if you prefer walking in the varied countryside of the Herault area. For those who just want to take it really slow, the poolside at Les Trois Oliviers will be enough to quickly get into the holiday mood. The owners also provide contact details for english speaking, local contacts in case of unexpected problems with the property. The A-9 Autoroute is easily accessible and day trips to Nimes and Carcassone are with easy reach.

'Les Trois Oliviers'

Beauvignac Ireland
Review Submitted: September 10, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Professionally handled rental, detailed instructions, opened the way to a delightful stay in a well-appointed villa. Discerning owners have made this medium-sized house very comfortable. Charming kitchen overlooking the Herault Valley, excellent outdoor/balcony dining area; comfortable semi-formal lounge and dining area, made for a great layout. Pool is small but adequate for non-Olympians, and nicely private. Extensive private patio for BBQs and star-gazing. Comfortable and well appointed bedrooms.
Local environs are v. pleasant; Pezenas is a rural town with large Carrefour, and excellent local GP for minor mishaps. 20 min car drive to the Med for beach and swimming, and seaside towns with more character and dining options that Pezenas. On balance - a great destination.

Les Trois Oliviers

flowers 54 Gloucestershire
Review Submitted: September 1, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had a fantastic holiday at this villa. It was better than we imagined it would be from the website description. It was very well maintained, well equipped and spacious. The view from the kitchen French doors was beautiful. We really enjoyed having breakfast at the round kitchen table, with the doors open, looking out across fields to the hills. Also, in the evenings we enjoyed the wonderful sunsets and also the view up to the old buidings in the local town which were warmly lit up.
The pool was a great place to cool down after a day at one of the nearby beaches and we enjoyed cooking a number of tasty BBQs and sitting outside on the rear veranda in the evenings.
The local area was great. We only stayed for one week but could easily have stayed longer. There were good beaches, such as Vias Plage and Marseillan Plage, within about a 25 minute drive and lots of pretty villages/towns to visit. We also enjoyed a day out in Sete where we watched the "Joute Nautique"
The owners seemed friendly and approachable and provided excellent customer service.

Peaceful Location

CWJ West Sussex
Review Submitted: August 24, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We stayed at the villa for 2 weeks in July/Aug 2009 and had a very enjoyable time. We found the description of the property on the website to be accurate, so no nasty surprises, and thought that the price represented fair value for money.

The area is very attractive and my wife particularly liked the small shops and cobbled streets in Pezenas. The villa is situated in a quiet location on the outskirts of a quaint village, but within easy travelling distance of the coast and regional towns. Even a bull ring in Beziers, though thankfully no bull fighting when we were there.

Tried numerous local wines and did not find a bad one!
