Le Moulin Du Roc

LosAngeles59677 months ago

Our stay at Moulin du Roc was nothing short of spectacular. The inn feels like walking into a dream. The inn is nestled next to a quietly flowing river, in the country side, it feels secluded and special. Once inside the inn, you notice the exquisite furnishings, and the warm greetings of the people who work there. ||The restaurant has beautiful oil paintings, and apples over the tables and in the bookshelves, it feels like entering a Dutch still life painting. Very poetic, but also warm and casual. ||Our room was carpeted, and very comfortable. Lamps everywhere, and a comfortable mattress and pillows. We slept very well!!! Our room had a full size bathtub, and a wonderful shower with powerful water flow, that gave a spa feeling. A very large bathroom, felt very luxurious..||Breakfasts at the inn was absolutely delicious, as was dinner. The preparation and design of the food is both comforting and complex, and the service is nothing short of excellence! I absolutely loved the apples on the tables, and the beautiful prism lighting. It made dining in the interior and on the patio to be magical experience.||It is these little touches that makes this inn so wonderful! Also the side lounge is so comfortable, they played jazz, and we sat in the lounge after dinner relaxing and taking it all in. I would have loved to have a digestif in this lounge if they offered it, something local like a walnut wine or eau de vie.||This inn feels like staying at an intimate bed and breakfast. You feel the soul and the warmth. ||I am so happy we decided to stay here for 3 nights! We were a bit worried it might feel too remote, and also considered staying in Brantome, but I am so so happy we did not. Brantome is wonderful and we explored it thoroughly, but this inn made the visit to this area of the countryside memorable. Driving every night back to the inn after touring the area felt the perfect way to end the day.||We did not get a chance to play tennis, or swim in the pools, but they do offer this. |||||
