Beautiful nineteenth-century mansion set in idyllic landscape with large lake and hectares of surrounding woods. Accommodation in converted barn ideal for four pairs and ensuite bathroom in each room a very big plus. Every comfort and games for all : boules, table tennis and swimming - and fishing in the lake. Splendid hosts living on site in main house.
La grange est rénovée avec des matériaux de qualité et beaucoup de goût. Confort absolu, l'idéal pour se ressourcer. Nous avons passé un séjour au delà de nos espérances. Merci à nos hôtes, charmants, agréables et discrets.
Pour moi, c'est la vraie définition du luxe: sérénité, propreté, qualité, environnement.
PARFAIT.

UN PARADIS AVEYRONNAIS
Merci à Jean-Yves et sa famille pour cette découverte. Nous avons passé chez vous un magnifique séjour. Le moulin est magnifique, les prestations sont de qualité que ce soit les 4 grandes chambres avec chacune son univers, la grande pièce à vivre, la cuisine ouverte et le petit coin lecture. Le charme des vieilles pierres avec tout le confort moderne. Et que dire des extérieurs, le lac avec son cygne, la piscine immense et chaude, les ânes, les poules. Dépaysement assuré. De plus l’accueil est chaleureux, encore merci pour le vin.
Je recommande vivement cet endroit.

Un coin de paradis en Aveyron
Encore merci à Jean-yves et ses proches pour un accueil chaleureux dans un écrin de verdure magnifique. Nous avons apprécié particulièrement la qualité de la rénovation, conservant les vieilles pierres et apportant le confort et la modernité dans toutes les parties de la maison. Bravo pour les 4 grandes chambres toutes équipées de salle de bains et meublées et décorées avec grand goût. La grande pièce à vivre et la cuisine ouverte sont très agréables et les extérieurs, terrasse, piscine, étang, chemins sont simplement à ravir.
Nous reviendrons.

Un séjour reposant dans un cadre verdoyant : parfait !
Le moulin est tout simplement magnifique, l'espace pour les hôtes très spacieux, décoré avec beaucoup de goût et les chambres sont grandes avec tout le nécessaire à disposition. La piscine est très bien exposee et entourée de verdure. Nous avons été très bien reçus par le propriétaire des lieux avec des petites attentions comme un bouquet de roses ou encore du vin. Nous gardons précieusement cette adresse !
