Excellent holiday in bohemian and charming old watermill. Unique holiday. Excellent pool, lots of fun for children and dogs without leaving the rental. Owner very helpful and friendly. Lots to do in local area and lovely food in nearby towns of la reole and marmande. Would recommend it.

The Mill is set is a quiet hamlet 5km outside of Mon Ségur and is a perfect base from which to explore the beautiful rolling countryside of the Duras region. We enjoyed visiting the wonderful local markets and touring some of the regions many vineyards. We were equally happy to stay at home and relax by the beautiful pool which is set in the woodland with the river running alongside. Our children loved messing about on the river in kayaks and trying their hand at fishing and a highlight for the whole family was the evening ritual of the starlings coming home to roost. Rita, our host, was very accommodating and made us feel very welcome.

Nice place, good location and helpful host.
The house was very quiet, surrounded by the lake with a big forest land.
Unfortunately the place was not clean and the furniture not at the standard of the rental cost.
