Wellness pool, sauna & massages
Swim under cover, unwind in the sauna, enjoy a massage without leaving the house.
The pool
An indoor pool that doubles as a lap pool
Under its enclosure, the 15-metre pool is as good for swimming lengths as for unwinding. Secure and open from 10 am to 8 pm, it is lined with sun loungers and faces the terrace.

Wellness through the seasons
At Maison Raphaël as at Villa Marceau, wellness follows the calendar: cool water in the warmer months, gentle heat as autumn settles in.
Summer days by the pool
From May to the end of September, summer is lived by the water. You slip in during the morning and drift back in the afternoon, any time between 10 am and 8 pm, as the mood takes you.
The water isn’t heated: the first dip takes your breath away, then wakes you right up. A few lengths of the 15 × 4 m pool, a few minutes in the whirlpool built into the pool, and the afternoon stretches out on a sun lounger, a book open, your skin still cool.
As the evenings draw in, the sauna
The sauna, for its part, knows no season. Yet it’s in autumn and winter that we love it most, back from a walk across the plain, cheeks stung by the cold.
The heat slowly eases into your shoulders. A cool shower, then a cup of tea in the lounge corner, under the eaves. Outside, night falls over the meadows, and nothing is urgent any more.
A massage, just for you
What if, for once, the gift were for you? Our beauty therapist comes to you at the gîte for a back or full-body massage with essential oils.
Afterwards, the evening drifts gently towards sleep. Your bedroom is only a few steps away.
