Beautiful setting
Despite some mixed weather, we had a lovely week by the river. Lots of wildlife, even caught a glimpse of a red squirrel. The house is well equipped, with a cosy log burner for chilly evenings. Lots to see within an easy drive. There are plenty of guidebooks and maps available in the property for use of guests. This was our second visit and it is perfect for a relaxing stay.

Highest recommendation for an authentic French experience!
This 3-story mill-turned-home-rental sits on a beautiful stream and is an easy drive to everywhere in the Loire Valley. Had everything we needed and was even better than described. We had a fabulous experience and a great host with excellent English communication skills.

Beautiful tranquil location
Le Fleuriaux is set in a beautiful quiet location, it is very well equipped and had everything we needed. We loved Kayaking and fishing on the river. We will definitely be going back again. The communication with the host was good, responding very quickly to any queries or requests.

Mill on river
Lovely house in a wonderful location. Lots of grounds and use of the river was great fun. Rooms comfortable and had everything we need. The age of the property showed in the plumbing (eg when flushing toilet, water came out of the kitchen plug hole) Communication from host received information for check-in in good time (instructions were really clear) and was prompt to respond to queries. Would have been nice to have had a check that we had arrived / got in / everything fine. Overall, really recommend

A most relaxing stay by the river. A wonderful property, well equipped and the most beautiful location. Near to supermarket and bakery but far enough to feel isolated in a nice way. We didn’t go anywhere the whole week, choosing to enjoy the peaceful nature of this wonderful mill. We saw kingfisher’s many times a day, deer red squirrels and lots of fish. We will definitely return.

Sewage from the property discharges directly to the River Indre
This is a lovely characterful property in an idyllic and tranquil setting. Overall the property is very well appointed. However, we were concerned and upset to observe that the raw sewage from the property discharged directly to the River Indre. Pollution of rivers is a global environmental problem, and it was disappointing to see this apparent disregard for the environment. It was also concerning that guests are not informed about this issue in the guidance notes for the property. We abandoned any thoughts of swimming once we became aware.

Truly remarkable
Upon arrival we were on awe. Incredibly beautiful setting. The old restored mill is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We spent hours outside on the terrace and boating in the Indre river. Very quiet, perfect spot to retreat to after visitng neighbouring chateaux or villages. Monts is within walking distance. Our 3 teenage kids also loved this home. Hosts were easily accessible and very quick to respond to any questions. This would be a most incredible place to paint or write We would love to return for a longer stay 5 nights were not enough. Only suggestion would be is be prepared with eruos (cash) for payment of electricity at the end of your stay.

Lovely, authentic mill in the perfect location for exploring the Loire Valley.
On arrival at Moulin des Fleuriaux we were delighted with the beauty of its setting. Once inside we found everything we needed, it is well equipped and we very much enjoyed returning there after days visiting Chateaux and places of interest nearby. The weather was mixed during our 10 day stay but we were able to enjoy the outside space on fine evenings and sit around the splendid wood burner inside when it was chilly. Communication with the owner was excellent before and during our stay. The four of us thoroughly enjoyed our holiday.

A piece of heaven
This is our second stay at the Mill. We keep coming back to Monts just to stay here. Our little ones (4 and 6) love playing in the creek and under the willows, letting their imagination run wild. My husband and in-laws took out the kayaks. There are life vests of all sizes, even for the littles. My husband, kids, and I slept on the top floor. My inlaws (in their 70s) stayed on the second floor. Everyone was able to navigate the stairs easily. There were plenty of supplies in the kitchen and we were able to eat in each night, including grilling three nights. There is a grocery store in town and a Carrfour a short drive away. There is also a great bakery. The famous Chateaux are within easy driving distance. We really love this place as an escape from the busy world and the opportunity to immerse ourselves in the French countryside.

Amazing water mill
What an absolutely amazing property, even better than the photos you are literally in the middle of the river. My family really enjoyed using the kayak, fishing rods and sitting by the water. The house is perfectly decorated and furnished. Only 2 small improvements that would be great, more pillows and fans for the top floor bedrooms as they got very hot.

Moulin aux fleuriaux
An absolutely delightful setting, in the River Indre (literally). With sunny weather, the deck is a great place to sit and relax. A wealth of first rate chateaux within easy reach, plus the Montlouis and Vouvray appelations (try Chidaine at Montlouis). With kind weather, this is an ideal gite, very highly recommended.

Un petit paradis sur l'eau
Nous avons passés un fantastique séjour dans ce si mignon "petit" moulin, l'environnement est absolument merveilleux, nous avons encore plein d'étoiles dans les yeux ! Cela restera un merveilleux souvenir pour notre fille. Un vrai petit paradis naturel pour nous (en plus des nombreux oiseaux d'eau, il y a même un petit écureuil qui est venu nous faire un petit coucou sur la terrasse). Chants des oiseaux, écoulement de l'eau, calme absolu, literie très confortable, nous avons tous dormi comme des loirs. Bien équipé, propre, chambres et salles de bain très cosy, nous avons également beaucoup apprécié la chaleur de la cheminée et le mécanisme du moulin au rez de chaussée. Un beau travail de restauration. Rien à reprocher pour nous. Interactions très sympathiques avec Mme Grosbois, aucun problème. C'est avec le cœur lourd que nous avons dû quitter notre petit paradis, nous y repasserons un nouveau séjour avec grand plaisir !
