10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (92)
"A fantastic week in Monts. The Moulin was ideal: tranquil river location, which was perfect for swimming kayaking and paddle boarding on the river. The children has an amazing time.

The properties are converted and done in a way that is sympathetic to their original use, the floors and walls weren't all even, but it added to the charm for us. The kitchens were well equipped and even had sharp knives for cooking, which can be quite unusual. The family loved the peace and quiet,...
