We spent a great time in Negreville, the Miller's house is fantastic, special ideas applied and very well equipped. You can feel the special effort put into the house, and it was a please to learn a lot about the mill itself, seeing it in operation and to get a lesson in Boullier de Sarrazin, with all the background. Thanks for providing us this experience!
I am absolutely delighted to express my utmost satisfaction with this extraordinary Cottage Rental. The owners have meticulously restored this 12th-century mill, transforming it into a captivating haven of tranquility and beauty. The property radiates a remarkable level of cleanliness, ensuring a serene and rejuvenating environment for a memorable family vacation. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the property manager and owner, who effortlessly conversed in both French and English. Their unwavering dedication to exceptional hospitality knew no bounds as they catered to our every whim and requirement throughout our stay. Without a shadow of doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend this remarkable property to anyone in search of an unforgettable experience.

Je suis tombé amoureux de ce moulin à eau du 12eme siècle classé monument historique il y a 3 ans. Malgré que le moulin et la maison du meunier soient en très mauvais état j’ai décidé de l’acheter pour le rénover afin de le refaire fonctionner dans sa configuration d’origine et d’en refaire un bel endroit lieu de rencontre et de partage comme autrefois.
