L’Olivier Gite is a converted donkey barn, that is adjoining our family home at the far end, it is beautifully decorated throughout and equipped splendidly, originally built in 1891 it changed to habitable living accommodation in the 1990s, and is tastefully renovated retaining the charm of the stone and original beams. Outside is a charming courtyard and separated terrace. It is located on a no through road, with no passing traffic which adds to the tranquillity of semi-rural living.

Lizant is one of the most beautiful villages in the region, it has its own family bakery and a well-established bar called Salamander.
