Our carefully selected venues vary each season so that we can offer the very best of each destination that your normal tourist does not see. For 2008 we have chosen a beautiful flower filled estate in Creuse located in the Central Massif, the heart of France. This little known region is a secret gem in the middle of the country. The many picturesque villages and farms radiate the French atmosphere from decades ago, giving the impression that time has stood still.

In Touch is delighted to have you stay at Les Trois Ponts, a privately owned hotel set amongst rolling hills and fields, 4 hours from Paris and eternities away from city life. This beautiful historic 150 year old Moulin (watermill) consists of the Miller's house and large grain shed (the mill was pulled down in 1966) and stands in its own aromatic garden surrounded by more then 8 acres with the river Tardes running through the property. It is a truly unique and magnificent setting.

Les Trois Ponts is a family run gite, designed for people who appreciate beauty, comfort and peace. The swimming pool is surrounded by the sounds of the river, while the orchards fill with the songs of birds. Truly a wonderful place to unwind and relax with yoga and massage taking place in the gardens and the surrounding hills offering many different hikes.

Most meals are eaten together at the large dining table with the exception of lunch which can be enjoyed anywhere on the grounds. There are just 6 bedrooms at Les Trois Ponts. Using the ancient stone walls the rooms are a colourful mix of traditional materials and fabrics collected from local Brocantes. Each room has it's own unique personality, color and elegant style.
