This is a classic piece of French history, a delightful old flour mill dating back to the 1700’s the mill has been totally renovated and offers spacious accommodation on grounds of 3500m2. With a private island. The river is the Lary, which runs through Charente Maritime and runs under the solarium, there is no working mechanism.
