General Info |
|
| |
La Mouline is approached via a track and then across a bridge and is set in a valley of woodlands and meadows with direct access to the river Lot. The Lantouy itself is a pure underground water source creating a lake in nearby woods from which runs the river Lantouy through the grounds, bringing with it a richness of nature and peacefulness. There are no distractions nearby to disturb the quiet. The gîte provides its own privacy, whilst embracing the abundant nature all around. The cottage is self catering and has hot water, heating and a log burner for the cooler months. There is a barbecue for your use. Ice making machine, freezer and laundry facilities are also available. The experience is very much of being at one with nature, so whether you prefer an active time or something more restful, La Mouline is the ideal retreat. |

This is our fourth time coming to the island and it's more enjoyable every year! We had a wonderful time being lazy in the sun and exploring the little river and pools surrounding the house.
