Description for B&B:
Imagine a picturesque region filled with lakes, forests, and charming village cafes where the untouched uplands and quaint spa towns have remained unchanged for centuries. This is the Creuse in the Limousin region of France, a place where the air is pure, the horizons are vast, and encountering another car is considered a traffic jam. Welcome to this serene and idyllic destination.Located approximately 18km south of Aubusson, renowned for its tapestries, Le Moulin de Sansonneche in the commune of Gioux provides a peaceful retreat. The nearest town is the charming market town of Felletin, just a short 10-minute drive away. With its cobbled streets and a typical French square adorned with several cafes offering open-air seating in the summer, as well as restaurants, bars, and shops, Felletin is a delightful place to explore.
Le Moulin itself is a beautifully renovated wool mill nestled in a wooded valley on the banks of the river Gioune. Accessible by crossing a small stone bridge, the setting feels like something out of a fairytale, making it the perfect location for a dreamy holiday in the heart of the stunning Limousin region.
The two 3-bedroom gites at Le Moulin offer impeccably furnished and decorated accommodation, providing a cozy and comfortable home away from home. The delightful gardens, wooded grounds, swimming pool, and nearby river ensure a tranquil and relaxing stay. It truly is a small piece of paradise, where one can unwind and rejuvenate both mind and body.
