Le Moulin is very comfortable with little extras like nice soap, lovely linen, a little breakfast for your first morning. Mariel enjoyed having my three children to stay. We swam in the river every day and went canoeing, Mariel helped us organise this. I highly recommend Le Moulin. ##### Petra J. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Patrick P. 26 Jul 2018 #### Magnifique logement meublé avec goût et très bien conçu. Accueil très agréable.

Mariel the owner is a fantastic host and nothing is too much trouble for her. The apartment is beautifully presented and fully equipped for all your need: a real home from home in a stunning riverside location, we would certainly recommend this property. Just wish we could add more star rating than this review allows. ##### Brendan S. ---
