Each self-catering holiday gite has its own fridge/freezer, gas hob and oven, dishwasher, microwave, washing machine, private garden, garden furniture and barbeque.

Details for The Water Mill in Loire Valley, France

This former flour mill has been carefully restored keeping as many of the original features as possible and retains an atmosphere of the working mill it once was. The stone flagged ground floor, entered from the main courtyard, retains most of the original mill wheel and its workings, and is sited over the mill race. The ground floor also provides access to the private grass terrace with weeping willows and is adjacent to the mill pond. There is a WC on this floor. A staircase leads to the spacious open plan first floor living room, dining area and integrated and fully equipped kitchen. Absolutely ideal for a self catering holiday. On the second floor there is a large landing with three bedrooms, two with double beds and one with two single beds (a third single bed can be provided), there is also a bathroom/WC and a separate shower room with WC and wash hand basin.

Lurais is within easy reach of the Loire where almost all of the nobility in France built themselves a chateau during the 17th century. Most of these wonderful chateaux are open to the public. Le Moulin de Lurais is in the 'Parc Naturel Regional de la Brenne'. designated such because of its varied and fascinating wildlife and the 'Pays de Trois Vallees', the Creuse, the Anglin and the Gartempe. This is a magnificent landscape of rolling hills and wooded river valleys, farmland and forests, fields, rivers and lakes. In the surrounding countryside are excellent facilities for cycling, canoeing, walking, riding, climbing, fishing and golf. There is excellent fishing in the many rivers and lakes in the area. There are good Golf courses in nearby La Roche Posay, and at Poitiers, Chatellerault and Chateauraux. The 'Centre-Ouest' is one of the main wine growing regions of France. Some of the best known regional wines are; Vouvray, Montlouis, Muscadet, Sancerre, Pouilly, Saumur Champigny.
