"The mill is very nice and special, unfortunately the weather was not so good and therefore we had cold in the house. Only one of five electric heater worked in the sleeping room. In the leaving-room you can only heat by makeing a fire in the fireplace and it takes nearly two hours until is getting slightly warmer in this big room. Unfortunately we could not use the extraordinary terrace because of weather terms. I guess summer times it would be a great place to stay. I booked this big hours...

The constant rain prevented us from fully enjoying the beautiful property and the pool as much as we would have liked it. Lots of things to explore around the area, and a bit further (Loire chateaux and so on)."

"We travelled to Princay as a family of 16, 8 adults and 8 children between 4 and 8. It had been very hard finding a configuration of properties that suited us and this was exactly what we needed. 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,...
