We stayed 5 nights with our 3 grown sons + partners. The house is very nicely decorated, well equipped, spacious and quiet. Chantal is a charming hostess. We typically spent mornings by the pool, had an afternoon adventure (Arles, Avignon, ChĂąteauneuf-du-Pape, Pont du Gard) then returned for a swim before dining out or cooking at home. Nice grocery shopping nearby and several excellent restaurants in UzĂšs. It is a charming town with a great Wednesday morning market. We were all sad to leave and hope to return someday.
Wunderschönes Haus in "walking distance" zu Uzes.
Wir haben in les Olivettes wunderbare Urlaubstage verbracht. Das Haus ist perfekt ausgestattet mit allem was es braucht, der Pool (trotz unserer Nutzung vor den Osterferien ) gefĂŒllt und beheizt, das angrenzende Poolhaus ist ein Bijoux und luxuriös ausgestattet und der Olivengarten vor dem Haus gepflegt und einladend zum entspannen und lesen. Die Umgebung ist ruhig und wir haben den Blick in die Landschaft genossen. Trotzdem ist das StĂ€dtchen gut und ĂŒber einen netten Weg (nicht entlang grosser Strassen ) zu Fuss erreichbar (wir haben 20-25 Minuten gebraucht....gemĂŒtliches spazieren). Chantal ist eine unglaublich hilfsbereite Vermieterin und immer erreichbar, wenn wir eine Frage hatten.
I stayed at the wonderful guesthouse, Les Olivettes, with a group of students who were taking a week of classes at the culinary school, Cook'n With Class (which I can also highly recommend) in nearby Arpaillargues. The property encompasses a very spacious guesthouse, and also a stone guest cottage, both furnished in the charming Provencal style, and nestled in an olive grove within easy walking distance of Uzes. The bedrooms were very comfortable with beautiful views, and the living and dining areas were inviting places to share quiet evenings in front of the fireplace, or to have guests for festive celebrations.
The lovely, and very friendly proprietor, Chantal Eykens, and her son, Arthur, greeted us with such a genuinely warm welcome. Chantal provided us with an excellent breakfast each morning and was exceptionally attentive to our needs. Arthur, not only a wonderful young man, but also a very gifted musician, gave a stellar performance of classical piano music for our first evening.
Les Olivettes provided the incomparable pleasure of feeling that, even for a brief time, we were actually living in a very gracious home in Provence. It was a marvelous experience and one that I can highly recommend to anyone visiting this very special part of France.
Complete serenity! A beautiful 2 story home ( I called it a villa) amid an olive orchard. Away from road noise, and just a short walk to town for cheese and wine. The Saturday market in Uzes is quite amazing.
I stayed a week taking a local cooking class with a small group.
We were met with a beautifully set Provence breakfast table every morning.
We had everything we needed. Comfort, beauty, serenity!
Our charming hostess, Chantal, gave us plenty of recommendations for shopping, dining, and walking. She is wonderful!
I really hated to leave. I could sit for hours on the patio drinking the local wines and listening to the birds! It was the best home away from home a lady could ask for!! I highly recommend this as a retreat. There's even a small romantic cottage perfect for couples.
Large house in quiet area, yet close to UzĂšs - ideal for a large family. We had a family reunion holiday with our four adult daughters & boyfriends & this property was just right
» Large kitchen & seperate food storage areas
» Two large fridges
» Large indoors dining area
» Outside & shaded dining area
» Seperate covered bbq & dining area by the pool, with pool house & shower
» Large swiming pool with loungers
» Some bedrooms have air conditioning, others have fans - esential as the nights are very hot
» Hosts are welcoming, accessible & helpful with any queries

Nous avons adore notre sejour au mas des Olivettes. Avant notre arrivee, pendant notre sejour et suite a notre sejour, Chantal, la proprietaire, a ete tres pro-active pour s'assurer que notre sejour se passerait au mieux et que nous ne manquerions de rien.
La propriete est magnifique et parfaitement conforme aux photos du site. Une grande maison, amenagee avec gout, dans un joli parc d'oliviers avec une piscine securisee, a 15 minutes a pied du village. En une semaine nous n'avons pu decouvrir qu'une petite partie de tout ce que la region a a offrir donc c'est avec plaisir que nous reviendrions passer du temps aux Olivettes pour continuer notre exploration de la region ! L'installation de la clim dans deux des chambres a ete bien appreciee. L'installation de ventilateurs dans les chambres enfants serait a considerer pour parfaire le comfort. Quoiqu'il en soit, une location a recommender vivement !
