Quirky and comfortable stay and a great welcome

We were amazed by the way that the windmill has been renovated. It was very comfortable for two - comfy bed in a romantic middle room and a cosy kitchen with a great view through the main door and with the option to eat outside. There are great walks and we really appreciated riding around on the bikes that we were provided with. There was plenty to do for five days. We are keen on swimming but took the advice not to swim in the Loire seriously. We found a safe pool to take a dip in a pretty tributary near one of the railway underpasses - swimming through the flowers. Best of all was the welcome that we received from Yvonnik and Claudie. They looked after us and we really kind and jolly. We had a great time - thank you for everything.

Un séjour de rêve annoncé... nous n'avons pas été déçus ! Une expérience inoubliable. Nous avons profité de l'extérieur avec bonheur : une vue imprenable, au milieu des vignes.A l'intérieur, la magie opère grâce à une déco faite avec beaucoup de goût, jouant avec la forme insolite et les dimensions réduites de ces vieux murs.Une vraie maison de poupée sur 5 étages. On s'y sent bien. A savoir : en période de fortes chaleurs, le moulin garde la fraîcheur !Le seul bémol : la taille des WC. C'est extrêmement étroit et il est compliqué de s'y mouvoir. Nous avons été très bien accueillis et y retournerons avec plaisir.

Mal anders Wohnen

Als Familie haben wir gerne in dieser toll sanierten Mühle gewohnt. Man lebt auf engen Raum mit vielen Treppen zusammen. (Nicht geeignet für Menschen mit körperlichen Handicaps oder kleine Kinder). Da die Mühle auf einem kleinen Hügel mit Weinstöcken als Bewuchs steht, hat man sogar im Erdgeschoss einen tollen Ausblick, der in den oberen Etagen noch besser wird. Wir sind mit Tischen und Stühlen immer im Schatten der Mühle umgezogen. Ein begehbar Außenbereich zieht sich fast um die ganze Mühle. Trotz des Niedrigwassers in der Loire, waren wir beim Campingplatz auf unserer Flussseite schwimmen. Kanus haben wir für eine Tour flussabwärts mit Shuttleservice im Nachbarort ausgeliehenen. Leckere Backwaren gab es im Tabakladen an der Brücke. Einen großen Supermarkt gibt es auch im Ort. Die Bäckerei und das Kino hatten Sommerferien. Wir würden die Mühle an alle weiterempfehlen, die Spaß an individuellem Wohnen haben.

Great stay in an unusual property

We loved staying in this thoughtfully and beautifully restored windmill. Everything we needed was provided and communication with the host was excellent. We loved the unusual living space, but be prepared for stairs (short flights) as there are 5 floors. It's worth it for the hammocks on the top floor though! The location was perfect for walking and cycling the well marked routes along the Loire, and there are many recommended tourist spots to visit not too far away. We would highly recommend this property to anyone who wants to enjoy an unusual getaway in the beautiful French countryside.
