Clotilde

Clotilde and her husband, Yves, have quite a history with Petit Soleil. I first met them at their little store in Paso Robles as I was looking for French antiques and treasures to decorate Petit's rooms and common areas. Yves travelled to Paris once a month and would return with a container of really unique pieces. We bought a few goodies - in the Herbes de Provence room (rm 22) we have a fabulous old sink (filled with lavender), and a little garden table in Le Jardin (rm 15), some garden chairs and a real Pierrot doll and original piece of art that I treasure in the Pierrot room (rm 16).

Consequently, I think the travelling to and from France, to antique shows on the weekends and running a store took its toll on the charming French couple, so they changed directions.

Olea Farms was born. This venture has turned out to be one that suits both of them perfectly. They live in a perfect setting, enjoy working their farm and making the different oils, visiting with people who come to visit the farm and loving life!

C'est la Vie!
