Le Moulin de la Follaine

Wonderful stay Sabine and Jean-Luc’s place is delightful, as are they. A beautiful and relaxing place to stay, with a delightful garden where we had a picnic on our last night. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. We definitely hope to return one day. Thank you Sabine and Jean-Luc.

Wonderful place We had a wonderful holiday at le moulin de la follaine. Its a calm and quiet, lush place and a great location from which you can travel to all the wonders of the pays Loire. We stayed at the gite, resembling a cute cottage, for a week and a half. There is a beautiful private garden when you rent the gite, but the whole premise (pond included) is accessible, very pretty and filled with animals such as 4 great cats, geese and chickens. The hosts were welcoming and accomodating. We would definitely recommend staying here.

OMG!!! Where do i begin?! This place is one of a kind! Nestled on a private island with streams on either sides, a gorgeous home built over a watermill, beautiful and huge lawns to find your own private corner, hosts that are most caring and above all 4 adorable cats!!! This is as atmospheric as it can get!!! We stayed 3 nights in the beautiful Belfroi room (family of 3). Its spacious, well done up, great bathroom and has 2 big windows with for cross ventilation. There is also an air-condition which we did not need to use. The Belfroi room is on the 2nd floor, a bit of a climb - afterall you are in a home built on the watermill. :) There is a tea and coffee maching in a tiny lounge outside the room on the same floor. The breakfasts were delicious - bakery products, local produce - cheese, honey, rillettes, crepes and ofcourse juice, tea and coffee - everything was delicious and served with the nicest crockery and cutlery. The hosts, Sabine and Jean-Luc are very warm and affectionate - it's like walking into the home of your favourite relative or friend. We were touched when Jean-Luc insisted on us having breakfast despite us having a very early departure to the airport. Azay-Sur-Indre is a very cute village and Loches, a short 20 minutes drive is a delightful town. This property also sits in the background of a Chateau - just adding to the overall charm. We loved spending time with the four adorable cats - Repeto, Flash, Inewa and Mervin and we are delighted to be able to put a pin on the world map! While the Loire Valley is special, it is our stay here made our experience even more precious and memorable!
