The house

  • Quiet, rural area with some traffic

In the beautiful Lot-et-Garonne just south of the Dordogne, 2 holiday homes hidden in the greenery. Ideal for holidays with several families (up to 16 p). There is plenty of space to do things together and yet there is also enough privacy for everyone. In the summer months of July and August, the houses are only rented together! Outside the months of July and August, either 'maison d'Isabel' or the whole with the 2 holiday homes is rented out, guaranteeing complete privacy.
The prices mentioned here are for the rental of the whole domain, with the 2 houses. For the rental of only maison d'Isabel outside the high season: contact us or consult gites-lamoulinal.eu
The houses are located in a 1.7-hectare estate, completely surrounded by greenery, and yet only a few km from a village (Castillonnès) with a supermarket, shops, cafés, restaurants,... On the estate, young and old can have fun in the large swimming pool, on the volleyball court, at the ping-pong or pool table, the petanque court, the football pitch or on the swing, or ... with a book or the ipad under a tree.
The pool house, built in 2023, with its large lounge area, fridge and outdoor kitchen near the swimming pool, invites you to enjoy delicious aperitif moments together! Extra large terrace with enough furniture to eat together near the outdoor kitchen. There is also a herb garden with fresh herbs near the outdoor kitchen.
A game of petanque is also no problem with the newly built petanque court. In the barn next to the petanque court, entertainment continues at the pool table. Something for everyone!
NEW: electric car charging station on the property
NEW: carport for 2 cars, plenty of parking space on the property and close to the houses

    We hebben enorm genoten van ons weekje in La Moulinal! Hoewel het reeds mid september was, konden we nog dagelijks genieten van aangenaam zwembadweer. De vakantiewoning was pico bello in orde. Vooral de nieuwe lounge meubelen in de poolhouse en de petanque waren erg in trek bij de studerende jeugd. Als ouders hebben we vooral genoten van de wandelingen en fietstochten (met gehuurde elektrische fietsen) in het heuvelachtige landschap.

    Wat hebben wij ons geamuseerd in La Moulinal.'s morgens met onze 2 gezinnen uitgebreid ontbijten onder de pergola bij maison d'Isabel. En daarna op tocht in de buurt: een gezellig marktje, een schilderachtig dorpje, wandelen in het groen,...in de namiddag luieren aan het heerlijke zwembad met een boek, de schaduw van de zonneluifels op de ligstoelen was hierbij erg handig. Onze kinderen ravotten in de grote tuin, voetballen, volleybal, zwemmen, petanque of uren lang monopolie spelen in de schaduw. Om 4 uur gezellig koffiekletsen en 's avonds naar een marché gourmande waar je op een nonchalante manier de lokale keuken leert kennen met op de achtergrond een orkestje. Of de pizzeria in de buurt of de BBQ ter plekke. La moulinal is een prima uitvalsbasis voor uitstapjes en het doet dan ook deugd om na een lange avond terug te keren en te weten dat je een goede nachtrust hebt in het koele huis ten midden van het groen, wij in maison d'amis en onze vrienden in het andere huis. We hebben ook gretig gebruik gemaakt van de koffiemachine met verse koffiebonen. Puur genieten...wij komen zeker terug!

    10 stars

    Met 14 volwassenen waren we ... een hele familie! De ontvangst was meer dan in orde: een warme welkom en een persoonlijke rondleiding gehad van de vriendelijke en sympathieke eigenaars ... veel info gekregen over de lokale activiteiten en bezienswaardigheden ( de map met info ook zeker inkijken!)
    De huizen zijn authentiek, ruim en karaktervol. Alle comfort is aanwezig voor een zorgeloze vakantie...je hebt verschillende zithoekjes op het domein waar je even heerlijk-op- je-gemak kan vertoeven.
    Het grote en perfect onderhouden zwembad en de sportmogelijkheden zijn zeker een pluspunt...
    La Moulinal is puur genieten ... en als God bestaat, woont ie daar zeker in de buurt...

    Comment from Isabel Lootens

    Beste familie Ver Cruysse, het was een plezier jullie te mogen ontvangen in La Moulinal! Blij dat jullie met volle teugen hebben genoten! Graag tot een volgende keer!

Restaurants, food & wine

In this region, they know the art of good food. No wonder with the variety of local products: tomatoes from Marmande, prunes from Agen, wines, 'foie gras', strawberries, melons,... You can find them on the numerous local markets in the region, where it is lovely to linger, or you can taste them in a local restaurant or during a visit to a farm.
We highly recommend the cosy night markets (Villeréal, Monflanquin,...), where you choose a nice plate at one of the stalls, buy a bottle of wine and take a seat at one of the long tables to enjoy the food together with local people and other tourists, while a band provides the necessary musical entertainment. Super cosy, delicious and very democratic prices!

Activities

It is blissful to relax in or around the large, south-west facing swimming pool (6m*12m) with roman steps. The pool is secured with an alarm system. This swimming pool is exclusively available to the guests of both gîtes. There are plenty of sun loungers and the terrace and lawn around the pool offer plenty of space. NEW from summer 2023: you can also relax in the pool house with lounge area and fantastic view of the pool and the green surroundings and there is even an outdoor kitchen. The pool and pool house are illuminated, creating a moody atmosphere and perhaps tempting you to take a night dive on balmy summer evenings. After swimming, the pool can also be covered with an automatic shutter.

Furthermore, there is a spacious football pitch with goal, a volleyball net, a swing and a ping-pong table set up under cover, which many of our guests enjoy using. NEW from 2023: an area for petanque.

The region is a fantastic holiday destination. There is the varied and rolling landscape, with vineyards, orchards, forests and sunflower fields, which is why this region is also called 'Little Tuscany'. Moreover, its historical heritage is particularly rich and well-preserved over the centuries. Recommendations include the castle of Monbazillac, the abbey of Cadouin, and the medieval villages nearby such as Castillonnès (4km), Issigeac (10km), Monflanquin (15km), Villerèal (14km) and Monpazier (25km). The magnificent castles of Biron and Bonaguil are also worth a visit.

On foot, on horseback or by bike ... plenty of marked trails to explore this beautiful sun-drenched region. Teenagers will love canoeing or kayaking down the Vézère or Dordogne rivers. Golf enthusiasts are also well catered for: one of the best golf courses in SW-France is less than 15km away. In Castillonnès, at ~5km, you can play tennis (information at the tourist office).

The estate is very quiet, surrounded by meadows and nature. Yet the nearest village, Castillonnès, is only 4km away. In Castillonnès there is a supermarket, and several bakers, butchers, restaurants, pharmacists, doctors and a weekly market on Tuesdays.

In the holiday homes there is a comprehensive documentation folder available to our holidaymakers, with tourist and practical info.

It is possible to rent bicycles. Your bicycles are delivered and collected free of charge from your holiday home (bicycles for adults, children, bicycle helmets, child seats, etc.).
