    Owners Profile
    For us the Moulin is our piece of paradise which we enjoy to share.

    I'm English and my wife is French so between us we can speak 2 languages fluently!

    We are lucky enough to have visitors who return year after year, some for the peace and solitude, some for the wildlife and some for the regional attractions. All enjoy the comfort and cleanliness of the Gite.
