Do you enjoy peace and quiet? Then the watermill is the perfect spot, located right on the Tourtoulloux River. Inside, it’s wonderful to relax by the crackling wood stove. You can read undisturbed or finally write that book. There’s no TV, but there is an excellent internet connection. Enjoy cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and take a sauna every now and then. The mill can accommodate four people. The comfortable living and dining room, featuring a wood stove and underfloor heating, opens onto a balcony overlooking the river. On the ground floor is a large bedroom with a double bed and an extra sofa bed, and a bathroom with a shower and toilet. Upstairs is a landing with a seating area. The bedroom has two single beds and a bathroom with a shower and toilet. The laundry room and a traditional sauna are in the basement, and a door leads to a terrace by the river. The mill is generally available for rent year-round, even during the off-season—please email us.

Nature and surroundings

The watermill, located at an elevation of 454 meters, sits on the banks of the Tourtouloux River, also known as Le Pic. The river is one of eight rivers in France to have been awarded the “Natural River” designation. It’s a place where you can also spot wildlife and kingfishers. On the land next to the mill, there’s a net where you can play badminton, and there’s a picnic table by the river. During rainy periods, the river and the waterfall are at their best. There is no light pollution, so you can see beautiful starry skies. The wooded area is popular for hiking. The Cascade des Jarrauds, a popular tourist attraction, is within walking distance of the mill. You can visit the weekly markets featuring local products, and Lac de Vassivière is just a 20-minute drive away. All of this in an area free of mass tourism.

We cannot add anything more to the previous reviews. It is a beautifully renovated mill house, fully equipped and decorated with great attention in an idyllic place. Very nice hostess and host, we felt very welcome.

Slept wonderfully. Due to the good insulation, the sound of the stream did not disturb at all. It was very special to experience a flowing stream and beautiful forest so close by.

Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

It is a perfect house, tastefully decorated, with everything you could need. Absolute tranquility. More important: cleaner we have really never experienced it. Only the toilet regime took some getting used to, but the heated seat was very nice! ;-)

In the morning we woke up with a cup of tea on the balcony surrounded by birdsong and then came face to face with a roebuck on the other side of the house. Further beautiful walks in the area, but actually we stayed mostly at the house, because it was so nice here already. We would love to come back again!

Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

We had a fantastic time! The house so nicely and comfortably furnished. Everything around the house is really beautiful! There are so many places to unwind. The house is also well insulated. So you can only vaguely hear the river in the background at night. The hosts are very attentive and friendly.
