Team-building day for our 3 offices on the theme of the Olympics. The Abbey is a very pleasant setting. The management team is welcoming, attentive and caring. We had dinner on the terraces suspended in the forest in a magnificent setting. We could also sleep in their gîtes. My colleagues loved it and have excellent memories of it. I recommend this place.
