Top 10 Reasons To Book With Us
We recommend the places we love
Ravi and I started this business after spending one of the best holidays of our lives in a Dordogne Chateau. The factors that made that such a brilliant week are the same factors we now look for at Oliver’s Travels – that’s why we hand select our properties and only recommend places we love ourselves. More on the Oliver's Way >
You can trust us
We've been in the business for over 20 years and send over 100,000 happy customers on holiday each year. We've made the necessary checks to ensure your villa actually exists and is in top form. Plus, you'll book using your credit card for added peace of mind.
Everybody deserves a bit of excellence
We like villas that have that something special; whether it’s extravagant luxury, a stunning vista or quirky design; we want to leave you breathless. But as we’ve discovered, excellence needn’t always come with a price tag to match - with an average of just £69 per person per night, you can be sure you’re getting excellent bang for your buck.
We're great for groups
Booking villas for large groups can often be tricky. Not so at Oliver’s Travels! We’ve got villas that comfortably sleep 10, 20... even 50 people (our largest property sleeps an impressive 80 guests!). Furthermore, we have hundreds of party houses and even venues for your stag or hen do. So whether you need somewhere for a school reunion or the annual gathering of the family clan, we’ve got it covered.
Our customers love us
Hundreds of our happy customers leave a good word for us with our Independent Service Rating Feefo every year. We also win Feefo's Excellence in Customer Service Award every year. But don't take our word for it! Read our latest reviews >
We're honest
If that picturesque castle tends to get a bit chilly at night, we’ll let you know before you set off so you can pack an extra jumper. That's not to say we're down on any of our properties - we just want to make sure that when you head off, you know exactly what to expect. Check the "Need to Know" for each villa or call our concierge team for expert advice!
Our huge choice of chateaux & villas
We might be picky about quality, but that doesn't limit our selection. When it comes to uncovering unique, quirky & exceptional homes, we’re like a pack of hounds on a Sunday morning (just without all the tweed & “tally-ho!”). New character villas are added daily.
We offer a best price guarantee
As we work directly with the owners of our properties they set the prices - so that's the price you'll pay. This way, you're not only cutting out the middleman but you also get the security of booking with a trusted company. If you find any of our properties cheaper anywhere else, we'll match the price, and throw in a free bottle of wine!
We're at your service
At Oliver's Travels, the service doesn’t stop at the front door of your villa. From car hire to local activities, catering & transfers, we can help you to arrange anything you might need for your perfect holiday. Just get in touch with our Free Concierge Service. Spoilt for choice? Our consultants can help you shortlist the homes you'll love if you don't have time to browse. If you do have the time, you can get stuck into the top 10 lists and travel guides in our blog "Oliver's Journal".
