Palmerston Gite sits in the old school grounds and is central to several villages and towns within 6km-15km away offering supermarkets, pharmacies, bakers, hairdressers, bars and restaurants. In Genneton we have a  'depot de pain' where you can get  your fresh bread and croissants daily. The town also has a small fishing lake offering daily or weekly permits.

 

The gite can sleep up to 6 people and has its own private garden and pool.  Pets are very welcome, and we offer a pet-sitting service if you wish to go out for the day to explore the local area.  You can take your packed lunch with you, and then return to a ready cooked evening meal.....all you have to do is uncork the wine!

 

EXPLORING FURTHER AFIELD

Having driven here, you will be expecting to visit most of the wonderful sights around Genneton by car. However, there is also a local minibus tour company in the village (Toms Tours) which will take you out for a day's sightseeing around the vineyards or to see the beautiful chateau in Saumur or the historic town of Thouars. Ask us for details.

 

YOUR WELCOME PACK

We know how good it feels to step out of the car and into your holiday home and see a Welcome Pack. Ours is very definitely "of the region"... (...more)
