It’s hard to imagine a more idyllic setting, with glorious gardens filled with century-old sycamores, pines and summer laurels. Sit back and read a book in a deckchair by the riverside, dine al-fresco in the shade of the beautiful trees and listen to nothing but the sound of the flowing water and birdsong. Spend carefree summer days swimming in the river followed by a barbecue with regional delights picked up from Farmer’s markets close by, sipping Languedoc wine from local vineyards.
The historic watermill was one of the last working mills on the Hérault and is now listed as an ‘Historic Monument’ of France. It has been recently restored to create a fine holiday home of the very high standard with five elegant bedrooms, an attractive living space and open-plan kitchen. Each of the five bedrooms feature en suite bathrooms and on the upper floors they enjoy river and vineyard views. Throughout this graceful abode there’s a true sense of character alongside modern home comforts and beautiful style.
You can arrange for your breakfast to be delivered each morning and there’s no finer place to enjoy it than the spacious terrace looking over the river. If you prefer not to cook, a private chef can also be arranged or you could head to one of the many charming restaurants in the pretty town of Pézenas, just 5km away, one of southern France’s historic gems with its 14th century market and famous L'illustre Théâtre.
Visit vineyards and wineries, wander through picturesque villages, hike or bike through the stunning landscapes and enjoy all that the Languedoc has to offer. Within twenty minutes you can be enjoying freshly harvested oysters from the Étang de Thau in Mèze or swimming in the warm Mediterranean with a choice of sandy beaches just half an hour by car.
End the day with a chilled glass of Pays d'Oc wine on your terrace as the river flows around you. Moulin de la Pêche offers a unique and memorable Languedoc experience in this true haven of serenity.
- Two of the double bedrooms are each on a mezzanine level with their own living space and bathrooms below – look out for low ceiling beams and open-tread stairs in these beautiful rooms.
- There’s a terrace looking over the river as well as direct river access from the glorious gardens – it goes without saying that children need to be supervised whilst enjoying the glorious outside grounds.
- Please note that rates for bookings during the Olympic Games may differ and are on request only.
