Açıklama İngilizceWalk over the wooden bridge and be enchanted by the setting of Moulin des Libellules on a small island on the Dronne River. With river access all around you, look out for kingfishers, carp and dragonflies at this idyllic retreat on the Dordogne and Charente border, a short walk from a traditional village, little shop and restaurant-bar.

Hear the village’s 12th-century church bells ring as you picnic in the garden, swim in the river or simply relax by the river’s edge. The characterful house comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests across its seven bedrooms, five with king-size double beds and two single rooms, alongside four bathrooms (one en suite). This is a genuine home-from-home with comfortable furnishings, attractive decor and interesting objets d’art.

The living spaces across Moulin des Libellules allow you to spend quality time with loved ones. Sit back with family and friends across the living-dining room, chill out in the TV lounge or make the most of the grand salon. Gather in the superbly restored pigeonnier, now a fun-filled games room near the swimming pool with its full-sized snooker table, table football and table tennis.

There are several places to dine al fresco including an especially lovely spot around an olive tree near the barbecue and swimming pool accompanied by the scent of summer jasmine. Laze back in one of the garden’s hammocks or head out in the rowing boat – there is also seasonal canoe/kayak hire within a very short stroll.

When not relaxing by the riverside, there’s plenty to explore across the Charente, Dordogne and beyond. Discover the art galleries, restaurants and café terraces of Aubeterre-sur-Dronne around 20 minutes away, classified as one of France’s ‘Plus Beaux Villages’, and experience one of the Périgord’s most famous markets in Ribérac on a Friday morning.

A little further afield, fall in love with riverside Brantôme and its famous abbey, sample some of France’s finest wine at prestigious châteaux in Saint-Émilion or spend the day in the heart of the Dordogne and you admire the grand architecture, vibrant markets and wonderful restaurants of Périgueux, only about an hour away from your charming riverside moulin in southwestern France.
