Welcome Home
Situated
in the heart of the "Vouvray"
wine country and the many Castles of the Loire Valley (UNESCO), this charming
XVth Century flour mill surrounded by a stream opens its doors to you.
While staying at the Moulin des Landes, you will have the opportunity to visit the local Castles, taste some of the finest wines from Vouvray, Montlouis and Chinon, discover local cuisine and the art of living "a la Française" and after a full day of discovery, enjoy a refreshing swim in our private pool (Children are under the responsibilities of the parents).
The Mill - History
The Moulin des Landes is made up of three buildings. The earliest one was built in 1625 by Louis de Houdan. The second one was constructed in 1726 when the mill was converted into a wheat mill. The chimney in the dining room dates from the 18th century. The third building, the Market, was built in 1851. After its purchase in 2001, the three buildings were renovated over a period of two years leading up to the moment it opened its doors to visitors for the first time in 2003.
