Brewery Gîte

The Brewery Gîte is a one-bedroom cottage situated on the grounds of our mill house and brewery. It is ideal for those wanting to get away from it all while still enjoying all the comforts of a modern holiday rental.

Peace and quiet is assured here, where most of the time all you can hear is nature; the birds, the stream and sometimes the church bells. We are surrounded by woodland and it feels like you are in the middle of nowhere, yet within minutes you can be in town enjoying a coffee and a croissant.

Our ethos

We moved to France over 12 years ago in search of a new way of life. We believe in trying to be as self-sufficient as possible, so grow our own produce in our potager and have fresh eggs from our free-range chickens. We also feel strongly about renewable energy sources, so our hot water is solar heated and during the winter our heating and cooking system is wood-fired. As a last resort, we will use electricity when the sun doesn’t shine – so there is never a shortage of hot water!

After a long search for our dream home, we fell in love with the charm of Le Moulin de Mazieras and the surrounding area. The countryside is beautifully unspoiled and we are lucky enough to see flora and fauna here that have become rare, if not almost extinct, in the UK.

Reviews

July 2016: The cottage was absolutely lovely, first class. Decorated to a high standard and very comfortable and homely. Well we did stay 3 weeks! We would definitely recommend this accommodation to other people. It is far better in reality than the pictures would have you believe.

August 2016: The property was perfect for a couple and dog, plenty of room and good equipment. The welcome was warm and genuine, good walking in the area and very central for lots of chateau visiting, markets and historic towns. Off the beaten track no road noise but only a short walk to restaurants and bars.

August 2015: It was a truly French dream. Lovely cottage surrounded by woodland, a little stream and a lake too! All too perfect to describe. First question you will ask yourself when you’ll get there will be: “how did they even find it, places like this don’t exist”! But they do and you will find it all when staying with Val, Mike and Claudia.

Our hosts were so friendly and accommodating that I would need to write a book to put it all in words. Some hotels should send their staff for training there, I’m sure Claudia would teach them lesson or two! It was a great pleasure to be staying with you guys and we hope to see you soon again.
