With a delightful selection of accommodation options available, Le Moulin du Calvaire offers you and your loved ones a fabulous break on the island of Île d'Yeu in Western France. Tucked away in the heart of the island’s largest private protected natural area, the eight-hectare site boasts a number of unique features and amazing accommodation choices.
You can choose between a restored windmill, a studio apartment and two fantastic houses. Guests can book these separately for smaller stays or all together for big group getaways.
The site itself is of Neolithic interest, with megaliths and cup stones. The marvellous surrounding environment has remained entirely unspoilt, allowing you and your loved ones to stroll and relax away from the world and the rest of the island.
First up is the restored windmill. This space features a nicely fitted kitchen, a double bedroom, a study and a dining room where you can enjoy long social meals into the night. The windmill’s sails still turn with the wind adding an authentic, old-world feel to your stay. The windmill’s modern bathroom is nicely equipped and you can enjoy a peaceful night’s sleep in the comfy double bed in the bedroom.
Guests can also stay in the studio apartment, a former farmhouse and a miller’s cottage, which offer up six bedrooms, four bathrooms, a spacious modern kitchen and a grand dining room with space for 18 guests! The big dining room is the perfect place for long lazy lunches and delicious dinners with the whole group. There is also a comfy living room where you can relax with a good book and a laundry room for added convenience.
Outside, the beautiful garden is set in open countryside and offers amazing sea views. With local flora all around, as well as orchards and two wells, this is a lovely place to stroll and settle in with a good picnic. There are various activities on offer too, such as zip lining, climbing walls and play areas, all of which blend into a unique and inspiring landscape.
Located in the centre of the island, Le Moulin is within walking distance of Port Joinville and just a five-minute walk from Ker Châlon beach. So you’re spoiled for choice when it comes to spending your days. Be sure to relax by the sea in the sunshine, before returning back to your home for an afternoon snooze. Or, head out on foot or by bike to explore the island in style, visiting its many beautiful landmarks, delightful shops and lovely restaurants.
