Pool
Come and enjoy the Angevine sweetness on the edge of the pool. From the 15th of May, you will be able to enjoy it, sometimes before, if the weather allows it and if we are ready. And at least until September 30th, or even longer if the weather is nice and warm. You should find the water temperature pleasant, it is heated if needed during the summer. The water is soft on the skin and does not sting the eyes, it is purified with salt. A large deck (130m²) surrounds the pool, providing a comfortable space for sunbathing on the deckchairs. For those who fear the sun, the poolhouse (45m²) offers a shaded area. A solar shower and toilets are at your disposal.
Following the Covid-19 measures, we provide you with a schedule indicating several private time slots, so that the guests of each gite have several dedicated time slots during the day to enjoy the swimming pool alone, without being disturbed and without the risk of running into other travellers. The times vary from day to day.
Hiking
For hiking and forest lovers, the Salvert woods (110ha) allow you to get some fresh air on the many marked hiking trails around the property, from 45 minutes to 3h30.
Other tours, further afield, will take you through the vineyards or along the Loire. We recommend you to walk in Le Thoureil, Cunault, Chênehutte or on the east side, in Candes Saint Martin or Montsoreau. You can also walk along a path along the Loire from Saint-Martin-de-la-place to Saint-Clément-des-Levées.You can admire the “toues” (typical boats of the Loire) on the Loire coloured by the sunset.

Hunting
On the natural boundary between the Baugeois and Saumurois regions, Salvert is exclusively a wooded biotope, suitable for hunting wild boar and roe deer from stands.
The land is divided between an open area, the garden, and a closed area, the hunting park.
From spring and during the summer, you can walk through the hunting park free of charge and discover the life of the wild boars.
