The swimming pool
The swimming pool
The Moulin domain has a 16-metre long, outdoor pool - a real must for cooling off during your Occitanian stay in the south-east of France. The pool is bordered by a large terrace, dotted with sunbeds and perfect for soaking up some rays. So, whether it’s diving competitions, swimming races, or simply siestering on inflatables while being lulled by the gentle song of the cicadas, you’re sure to spend many a happy moment here. The pool is available for use from the end of April until mid-September and is not heated.

Outdoors
Outdoor Life at the Moulin
The 4-hectare grounds surrounding the house provide a variety of green spaces and amenities that will make for a truly unforgettable stay. You’ll be spoilt for choice as to where to enjoy your meals and aperitifs, be it in the garden lounge, around the inner courtyard’s dining table under the cool of the trees, or poolside below the covered terrace with its barbecue. While of course taking time to laze by the pool, why not also enjoy a rousing game of boules, your very own mini-Olympics on the multi-purpose sports court (basketball, tennis, volleyball and badminton) or a frenzied game of table football with friends?
As well as enjoying all the amenities on offer, you can also simply soak up the garden’s natural beauty. With its 4-hectare grounds, lush vegetation, scattering of olive trees and very own river, it truly is an exceptional setting. There is a stream crossing the grounds which requires the vigilance of parents of young children
