Séjour au top. Accueil chaleureux de notre hôte: Allison.
Rien ne manque dans ce petit cocon. Allison prend un soin particulier de ses invités pour leur permettre de profiter au mieux de leur séjour. La maison était équipée dans son moindre détail. Nous y retournerons avec plaisir!
Excellent. Une agréable propriétaire qui propose des gîtes de très bonnes qualités, cosy et confortables. Les moulins comme les autres ont ttes les commodités indispensables pour ne pas se surcharger. Tous les linges sont fournis ainsi que les produits d’entretiens malgré que le ménage final soit compris dans le prix! Salle de jeux excellente avec le billard américain, fléchettes… Terrain de pétanque disponible aussi!
What a unique experience! The home is super comfortable and great French country experience. Very warm home with Full Kitchen and living area on the main, 2 bedrooms & Bath on the next floor – and loft with bedroom and bath on the next. Super cute furnishings and had great communication with the host. There are a couple town close by and very short drive to Mont St Michel. I would not hesitate to stay again.
Beautiful French country gite. We so enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. Les Moulins was perfect for our family. It was immaculate and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay. Alison and Malcolm were so kind and helpful, even had a fire in the fireplace on our arrival. Also a very nice guest handbook with cities, sites, and activities in the area. Perfect location for visiting Mont St Michel, Dinan, Dinard, D Day beaches. We would like to return and do a D Day tour with Malcolm. We highly recommend this property!
Relaxing and enjoyable. The pool was a great plus. We were looking for a quiet location for a family holiday, close to the coast and with plenty of nearby attractions to keep 3 early teen kids occupied. This hit the mark every time! The pool was a massive hit and we had sole use of it most of the time. Booking and check in were easy, our hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Cottage was very clean and well equipped. Would highly recommend this for families or couples alike
Gem of a place. Fantastic holiday at Le Moulins with very friendly owners, Malcolm and Alison. So helpful and friendly and so kind to our triplet granddaughters. Brilliant place to stay and will recommend to family and friends. Will be back again.
This location was excellent for our three generation trip including three young kids. The gite had everything we needed for a enjoyable and memorable vacation. We stayed during a heat wave, and the pool was the perfect refreshment. Alison and her husband were gracious hosts , and provided us with fans upon request, offered tips for things to see, and restaurants to visit. They even had a game room with billiards, darts, etc. Highly recommended this place. Thanks again.
Brilliant family holiday home with great facilities. I would highly recommend this property, situated in a beautiful and peaceful location but within easy access of lots of local tourist attractions. The property had everything we needed and some extra touches that made it a great home from home. The children loved having the use of a swimming pool and the games room was a great hit with the older two boys.
I found the property to be really clean and tidy and well presented when we arrived and Alison was very welcoming and helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property to friends and family, and we hope to return again in the furture.
Lovely and comfortable accommodation. Weather was great for the time of the year – but we loved a cosy fire in the evenings nonetheless!! Lots of historic places – loved Fougeres. If visiting the landing beaches in Normandy as we did, the Bayeux Tapestry is also well worth a visit. The kids loved the Aquarium at St Malo, Alligator Bay and also a visit to the local forest. All in all, an enjoyable holiday and we will recommend the accommodation should any friends or family wish to visit Brittany
We have all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here even though the weather wasn’t as sunny as we hoped it would be! We particularly loved the use of the pool and the bikes. Also, we thought that it is very well equipped and a comfortable home to stay in.
Thank you so much for a very relaxing holiday. You made us feel very welcome and all the ‘extras’ were much appreciated in the house – so much more than is usually provided. Mont St Michel in the evening worked very well. We loved cycling along the disused railway line and cycling to the tennis court. The local forest with the lake was a huge hit and we thoroughly enjoyed Dinan, Dinard and Fougeres.
It was lovely to get the family together to meet Annabelle – the latest arrival!!. We had a wonderful visit and so enjoyed the whole experience. A little piece of heaven!!!
What a wonderful break! We had a fantastic time in Les Moulins. The place itself is beautiful and Malcolm & Alison have added all the little thoughtful touches that really make it special. The house was so well equipped and every single thing you need to enjoy your holiday is provided. We brought so many things with us that have stayed in the suitcases because they were already provided. A very special place. Look forward to returning. Thanks again.
We have had a fantastic time here at Les Moulins. Everything we could ask for and more. The boys had a fantastic time in the pool and Games room. We loved our day at the beach at Dinard but the days at the Foret Villecartier were brilliant. – the high wires, boating lake and the hot chocolate went down a treat. Alison and Malcolm could not have been more helpful – we will have no problem spreading the news about how much we have enjoyed it here.
Les Moulins is a beautiful place to stay with everything you would ever need. The Welcome pack is a lovely touch and along with Alison & Malcolm’s kind hospitality, made us feel very welcome. There is a lot to see within easy reach and we found it very easy to fill our 2 weeks. Wish we could have stayed longer!!
The house is great and is a true Home from Home!
What more is there to say – Absolutely fantastic!! Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for a wonderful time. Unusually, we were here over Christmas and found Les Moulins a snug and comfortable base for touring around Brittany. We have been able to do a lot of sightseeing without any crowds. We recommend: the Bayeux tapestry, seafood in Cancale and the Forêt Villcartier for beautiful and manageable country walks. Les Moulins is extremely well-equipped and Alison and Malcolm have been kind and helpful.
Thank you for allowing us to share your corner of France for a week. We wished it could have been for longer!!! We hope to return again next year!! Fantastic house, everything thought of – down to the finest detail. Very comfortable and amazing – always surprises on opening a drawer or cupboard door! We loved the Games room, the pool, the gardens and the surrounding villages and attractions. Thank you!
This is our 3rd year travelling to France with wee ones in tow and by a long shot, Les Moulins has been the best gite ever!! As soon as we set eyes on the place we could see how clean and welcoming it was. The gite was spotlessly clean, the beds comfortable and the whole place well equipped. The pool was Hayden’s highlight of each day and the garden was beautiful to relax in. Best places we have visited – the aquarium at St Malo, Bourbonsais Zoo, Alligator Bay, Forest at Ville Cartier.
