St Emilion retreat
The location and views are excellent. Hosts are lovely and responded quickly when bathroom sink sprang a leak A reminder that being surrounded by vineyards is beautiful but includes early morning industry noise of people and machinery at work. I'm not a Princess but... the Moulin interior decor was somewhat disappointing - nasty plastic storage cupboards in kitchen and bathroom really cheapen the look which could easily be made more ' luxurious' with a visit to a Brocant and a little imagination. Some simple repair jobs- misaligned cupboard doors, l9se electric sockets, detached extraction hood vent - had been neglected which detracted from the general expectation given the cost of the stay. Don't plan to cook anything that needs more than reheating as there was only one induction ring and a microwave. Overall 3 stars out of 5

Perfect property for two, location superb amongst the vines and only a short walk into stunning St Emilion. Future renters take note the bathroom is in the basement and the bedroom is three floors above, so a tricky descent if you require the bathroom during the night, otherwise a perfect stay.

Enchanting accommodations
We were beyond impressed with our stay! Solange was accommodating and helpful. It was a once in a lifetime experience. We will be reminiscing for years

Not quite what we envisaged but soon got acclimatised to the stairs & coped well at our ages (76&81)
A superb location set amongst all the vineyards with the wonderful town of St. Emilion close by. Weather great most of week and it was a real benefit to sit out and gradually recover from treatment I’d received prior to leaving home, it was like a tonic. Our delightful contact Solange was most anxious that we were enjoying ourselves and was very helpful. Perhaps we needed a lesson in how to use the microwave but overall we managed well. A great experience for two experienced gîte dwellers over many years in our beloved France which we visit every year. By the end of the holiday we were refreshed and grateful for yet another rewarding vacance enjoying all that France has to offer. Thank you.

Smaller accommodation than we had expected
The accommodation is small, which is ok if you book with that expectation. It looked bigger in the photographs (which are clearly from at least 3 years ago) The main issue with the accommodation is to do with the lack of air conditioning. You might think “so what, that doesn’t matter” Let me explain. The heat in the mill is significant, particularly at night. The sleeping quarters are on the top floor and as the heat in the mill rises the bedroom becomes stiflingly hot - unbearably hot actually. To combat this you have no choice but to open the one window in the bedroom. The problem with that is that you are in the middle of the countryside, surrounded by vineyards and you are then swamped with biting mosquitoes during the night which was very very unpleasant - particularly if you want to wander the streets of the local villages with legs which look like you have leprosy! So our view is that the thought of living in a converted mill in the middle of the French countryside is much better than the practical reality. Big plus point though is the proximity to St Emilion which is a very beautiful place. Solange, the owner, is lovely and we feel awful about giving a review that is less than complimentary.

Posto meraviglioso nel cuore delle vigne per chi ama la pace e la tranquillità. Proprietaria al top (grazie a lei abbiamo potuto risolvere un problema personale), ci ha anche offerto la miglior degustazione di vini illustrandoci curiosità inerenti a questo mondo e siti da visitare. Ci ritorneremo di sicuro!

Foutoir et tromperie sur contenu présentation photo
Détails impossibles à décrire tant ils sont nombreux ! Entre -autres : Gîte non prêt à l'heure prévue, d'où 3 heures d'attente sous la canicule, défaut de réponse aux appels téléphoniques, impression d'un laisser -aller total de la propriété à l'arrivée, jardin à l'abandon non soigné et en ce qui concerne l'intérieur : pas de TV, (Il y a 1 poste de TV et une antenne mais c'est purement décoratif car ils ne sont pas raccordés, absence de tentures, 4 chaises cassées au jardin , volet cassé, spot défectueux sdb, armoire cassée cuisine, taque de substitution, fuite d'eau sdb. RIEN ne correspond aux photos du site. J'ajoute que quand nous avons protesté on nous a répondu qu'on pouvait aller ailleurs. Suite à notre colère on nous a apporté une chaise longue et deux chaises de jardin et on nous a payé un verre...! et le jardinier est venu le lendemain. Et bien sûr pas de wifi après tout on n'est qu'au XXIème siècle. Bref une véritable escroquerie car les photos sont une tromperie par rapport à la réalité.

Magnifique vue mais Sommaire à l'intérieur
Joli point de vue mais le prix est élevé par rapport aux prestations intérieures. Dommage, avec des matériaux d'aujourd'hui, le lieu pourrait être mieux aménagé. Très bon accueil du propriétaire.
