Lovely Riverside Holiday Rental Cottage in Bessay, South Vendee - Le Moulin Bodin Reviews

We arrived later than we wanted but we were given a very warm welcome by Kate and Ian, and we were told to 'make ourselves at home and to wander where we liked'. The property was spotlessly clean and well equipped, comfortable, spacious and very French rustic style - it suited us perfectly for a break away from it all. The sound of the birds and the frogs were a delight, and one morning early my husband looked out of the window into the garden and saw an owl flying close to the ground and past the house. The ducks were always pleased to see me especially when they saw the bread! We were told to help ourselves to the fresh produce that Ian quite lovingly grows and the tomatoes were particularly delicious (you could almost taste the sun!). The property is very remote and off the beaten track and was blissfully quiet and relaxing. The coast is about three quarters of an hour's drive and La Rochelle and Les Sables D'Olonne were a very pleasant visit. The downside was that we did not have enough time to visit any of the Cave's on the Route de Vin and taste some of the rather delicious local wine because we were just so relaxed sitting and reading at Le Moulin Boudin. As Arnold Schwarzenegger said "I'll be back" Thanks again Kate and Ian.
