A French Country Boutique Hotel – Bed & Breakfast
Driving early in the morning from Switzerland to Lloret de Mar, Spain required that we stayed overnight somewhere in France to break the traveling distance.
After researching the web I came across this quaint, Bed & Breakfast called Le MAS DE L’OLIVIER, in a small country village called Verargues. 
It was named Le Mas De l’Olivier because of the Olive tree in the courtyard.
Verargues has a population of approximately 700 people, is located in the region of Languedoc-Roussillon, District of Montpellier.
Arriving in the late afternoon,
we were let in at the electric gate leading us to the courtyard of the main building.
After the assignment of the rooms, we were 10 people altogether, and that took a bit of time, we enjoyed refreshments in the courtyard, and the kids jumped in the pool to cool off. Dinner was served in the courtyard, start we had a chilled Radish Cream Soup, crusty French bread was served with an Olive-Red Beet Tapenade, the main course was a combination of Tempura Fried Chicken, Roasted Peppers, and Eggplant, with a BBQ’ed Beef Patty.
Not exactly your typical,
traditional French meal, but we were all hungry and enjoyed it. The rooms were clean and comfortable and all had AC!
The Vineyard
next, the hotel is in existence since 1789. Le Mas De l’Olivier consists of 4 buildings with a total capacity of up to 45 people.
The main building houses individual rooms, the other buildings contain 4 Suites, each Suite has its own style and decoration.
In the morning Silvi, the owner, greeted us with a nice breakfast buffet with homemade jams, Silvi’s bread pudding, cakes, crusty French bread, cheeses, fruits, and beverages.
Should you be in that region during your travels, or plan a vacation in the Montpellier region, I would recommend this cute place, whether it is for a day or a week, you will feel at home here.
