Where is it

Charente
 

The Moulin du Pontour is a 3 star property situated on a private island in the Charente River. When you drive across the bridge onto the island you will find yourself transported to a haven for Nature's diversity. A mill has occupied this site since the 15th Century. There are 5 acres of garden and lawn to explore.

The original mill owner's cottage has been renovated to a high standard, providing a wonderful base for a holiday. If you want to give yourself a treat, evening meals can be provided using vegetables from the garden, local produce including fish from the river washed down with a small but interesting selection of wines and cognacs.

Accommodation detail

Le Loft is a newly converted former grain barn with double height ceiling and beams for guest's sole use. It is a spacious studio apartment situated on the first floor and accessed by an external stone staircase. There is a modern fitted kitchen. Both windows have views over the Charente.
