Beautiful quiet location

We really enjoyed staying here for a week. The property is on the hosts property but it still feels very private. The house is incredibly well thought out, with a well stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. The pool is just lovely. Lorgues is a beautiful market town and you are perfectly placed to explore Provence.I would visit this property again. Highly recommend.

Well-equipped, comfortable, convenient, relaxing

We have been holidaying in France for over 30 years ad our 3 weeks at le Moulin have been the most enjoyable and relaxing for a long time. The location is excellent, the apartment very well equipped, everyone friendly and helpful. Our family is planning to return

Lovely Lorgues again!

Our family of 5 enjoyed another 2 week holiday in Lorgues staying in Gill & Alan's wonderful Garden apartment property. We are returning guests and quite simply love the property. The accommodation and kitchen/living area are to a very high standard but the outdoor facilities are superb. Gill & Alan are wonderful hosts and we would highly recommend the property.

peaceful and relaxing holiday apartment

We stayed here during May and thoroughly enjoyed our time. The apartment had been thoughtfully furnished to a very high standard. The pool area was a real highlight which meant we did less exploring and more relaxing! The location was ideal as restaurants and bars in Lorgues town was only a few minutes walk away. Some of the streets were a little steep though if you have difficulty walking. All in all a great location and apartment and we would definitely return again.

Beautiful house in the Var region

A very pleasant house with a beautiful garden and great pool. The house is attached to the owners’ place, but when were there, it was just us. We loved relaxing in the garden and every morning doing laps in the pool. It’s very convenient that Lorgues centre is only a minutes walk. There are many nice villages in the area and the Mediterranean is less than an hour drive. The house was well equipped.

A lovely stay

We have just returned from our stay and wish we could go back immediately! The pool and garden is gorgeous, it was lovely and relaxing watching the Swifts swoop around the sky as we sunbathed. The property is a good size for 2 adults with all the equipment you need. The town is a very short 4 min stroll away and has lots of good restaurants and bars, as well as a boulangerie and other shops and weekly markets. There was good communication and lots of helpful information from Gill prior to arriving and also from the local agent Eric when we arrived. We really enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend or book again in the future.

Great place, great location

Beautiful place in a beautiful region. We went there with our 3 kids in the summer. I know the region quite well as i was born and I grew there (so, it's true I'm not really objective). The location is very convenient (in the village but very quiet place : you feel like in the countryside). The apartment has been recently totally renovated : it is very clean and comfortable. Amazing swimming pool and garden.

A wonderful haven in the middle of Lorgues

We absolutely love staying here in this apartment in Lorgues. It is very well equipped and is so central, easy walking distance of bars and restaurants, so driving not necessary! Gill and Alan are extremely helpful in pointing you to the right direction for the best beaches, places of interest to visit etc. There is plenty to do and see in the area. The best part is the wonderful pool and gardens. Plenty of sitting areas in full sun or shade for those lazy lunches. The gas BBQ is great too! The apartment is very clean and well maintained. We have enjoyed many a holiday here and will be there next year too.

Three weeks in Provence

We have spent three weeks in Provence, in the Garden Apartment. We enjoyed the location of the property, the very well equipped kitchen, the garden and the pool. The two bedrooms were comfortable and the bathroom quite spatious. The hosts were charming and helpful and eager to share advice and information. It is a great location to explore the beauty of Provence and come back and enjoy a restful night. We will go again soon. We still have many places we have not fully explored. L&M, Weymouth, USA

Lovely villa with pool

We had a fantastic stay at Gill and Alan's villa in Lorgue. The highlight was definitely the pool which was beautiful and warm. There is lots of outside space too which is lovely. The weather was incredibly hot (38/39 degrees) so we struggled to stay cool at night but other than that is was a great holiday. Lorgues is a pretty provincial town and it was fabulous to be only a few minutes walk from the villa to the town. There are lots of simple restaurants to try out and beautiful villages to explore especially Tourtour. We also had a great day kayaking down the Gorge Du Verdon. We would definitely like to come back for another holiday! Thanks Gill and Alan.

We had a lovely stay at Gill's gorgeous property. The apartment was clean and well equipped. The highlight is of course the beautiful grounds and large sized pool (although sadly it was not heated during our stay as the pump had packed up!). Good communication, Gill was very quick to respond to queries. The location in the town itself is great - lots of places to eat, all easily walkable from the property, plus a super weekly market. Interesting medieval history throughout Lorgues and the wider region. Also good location to explore further afield, whether beaches to the south, or the wonderful Gorges du Verdon higher up in haut Provence, together with several hilltop villages and waterfalls. One thing to note, the entrance to the Impasse du Jardin by car is quite narrow and on a bend, so could be tricky for a larger car to access (we hired a Renault Captur).

Lovely Lorgues

It was our second visit to this wonderful property in charming Lorgues and I can confirm that the property does live up to the promise provided by the website photos. Our party of five stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment. Our younger family members who are aged 10, 9 & 4 spent plenty of hours in the manicured garden/pool area. The Moulin is superbly appointed within close proximity to the town. The location cannot be underestimated as it is wonderful being able to stroll to the village for bread, coffee, food etc. Gill, Alan & Luce are delightful to deal with. Would we return? – Absolutely.

Perfect home away from home!

This property is superb. As a family we have been coming for a number of years, and now that I have my own family, I was eager to see what it was like with a baby. Well, it couldn't have been better. Gill kindly let us use her grandchildrens cot and we had use of all I could possibly require for our baby boy eg high hair, bibs, beakers and toys! The pool is glorious and the grounds stunning. Gill and Alan have been working hard and the garden is glorious. It's a peaceful tranquil well equipped haven, but a stones throw from the lovely town of Lorgues, where we pottered down for 5 euro breakfasts and enjoyed a few meals out. Safe to say we have already booked for next year! Thank you!

Le Moulin Garden Apartment

This two bedroom garden apartment shares the large pool and gardens with the main house. There was no one in the main house during our stay. However, given the large size of the pool, garden and orchard and the extensive choice of places in the garden to eat, relax, sunbathe etc we do not envisage this being a problem. The garden is very well maintained and is also quite private.The pool was a lovely temperature, much warmer than many pools we have used in June. The apartment itself is well appointed and was ideal for the two of us. It has great views from the bedroom and sitting room out over the town to the hills in the South, which was an unexpected bonus. Overall, this is a very pretty apartment, which has clearly been carefully developed and maintained to a high standard. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property as a destination or as a base to visit other parts of Provence. Mark and Judi Longhill

A tastefully restored house of very high quality

We have just returned from an extended stay at the garden apartment which has been lovingly restored to a very high standard. Alan and Gill have taken great care to preserve and create those all important ambient features that you hope to find in a Provencal villa. We particularly enjoyed lounging around in the idyllic and well equipped pool environment after days out exploring the local area. The location also provides a peaceful rural retreat with the convenience of being just a short walk from restaurants, bars and shops in the characterful town centre. You can also base yourself here to discover all of the other leisure activities and pursuits that Provence has to offer e.g. Beach, cycling, canoeing and visiting regional towns, villages and cities etc. Alan and Gill were fine hosts albeit that they only arrived on our final day. No review would be complete without a special mention of Luce the caretaker who was so helpful and friendly and a delight to talk to. We were very depressed on the day that we finally left and we would not hesitate to return or recommend this ideal holiday bolt hole to friends.

Fantastic! Can't wait to go back!

I can't say enough good things about Lorgue and these fantastic accommodations. The apartment had all the comforts of home and is in such a beautiful location. We were tempted to spend our days just lounging in the garden by the pool and we were always so happy to have such an idyllic spot to come home to after our daily excursions. Gill and Alan provided excellent service and the apartment is so well organized right down to the small reference library with maps, brochures and guidebooks of the area. The location is unbeatable, putting you within an easy drive of sites such as the Gorge de Verdon (1 hr) Frejus/St.Raphael/St.Tropez (40 mins), Aix en Provence (1 hr), Vence/St. Paul de Vence (1.5 hr). But best of all is the multitude of exquisite and historic villages surrounding Lorgues. We were there with our two daughters (10 and 7) and they were delighted. They particularly enjoyed the gardens and caves in Villecroze (20 mins away) and swimming in Lac St. Croix and the Gorge de Verdon. They loved the house and swimming pool. Lorgues has plenty of great little restaurants as well as a large, well stocked Supermarket, so plenty of choice for food. We can't wait until our next visit!

fantastic holiday

We had a fantastic 2-weeks holiday at the moulin. The apartment is well equiped with a nice kitchen and clean bathroom. There's plenty of space for a holiday apartment. The garden is beautiful and peaceful. The swimming pool is big and a paradise for swimming and playing with the kids. There's also enough space to enjoy a sunbath or to play 'pingpong' or even to play badminton. A very small minus is the gravel (rather big stones) in the area where you can eat outside - the gravel is not so handy to move your chair and so on. A big advantage of the moulin is its location. You're staying in the center of Lorgues. Bakery, restaurants, the historic center, you can do it all by foot and still you can have a quiet, peaceful holiday. Gill and Alan are great hosts. They're always available to help and to answer your questions. The service on towels and linen was OK. Lorgues is a nice little town and has a good location to discover the Var. In the apartment a lot of information is available about the Var and the Provence. The 'Impasse du grand jardin' is a surprising small street but you can get through to get to the moulin - we did it with a Renault Scenic - it can give you nice pictures to show your driving skills :-)

A second visit to the Moulin in pretty Lorgues

I have never been back to the same place twice but my family and I returned to the Moulin for a second year running and I know we will be back again for a third time. If you love France then look no further. A gorgeous converted Olive Mill awaits you in the heart of beautiful Lorgues. Each morning we'd meander down to the medieval town and grab a coffee, visit the patisserie, boucherie or supermarche to get the provisions we needed for the day. I love a market and every Tuesday Lorgues is the life and soul of Provence with beautiful stalls. Clothes, bags, shoes, crafts, food..... You name it they have it! We have three kids under five and they loved swimming in the large heated pool. We also made it to the seaside which is only an hour away. You have the best of both worlds and if you don't fancy the sea then there are gorgeous towns/villages to visit. Tour Tour is one of our favourite spots. High up on the hill with spectacular views and local craft shops too. If you love your wine then you are spoilt for choice! There so many vineyards for wine tasting. I would recommend the Moulin to anyone. It never disappoints! Look forward to seeing you next year Gill & Alan.

Perfect Provence Property

Our first taste of Provence and we couldn't have chosen a more perfect place to stay. On making the booking Gill was extremely helpful and provided brilliant directions and advice for our stay. On our arrival we were warmly greeted and immediately made to feel at home. The Garden apartment was clean and welcoming. It has been lovingly restored and provides the necessary comforts and conveniences needed for a super holiday. Our teenage boys made good use of the outdoor ping-pong table in the large, pretty garden that also provides plenty of opportunity for shade. A ready to use gas BBQ provided us with some great al fresco meals. The large swimming pool was wonderful to cool off in during the hot days of mid June. Whilst the view from the garden gives you the feeling of being in the countryside the delightful town of Lorgues is only a short stroll away. Very handy for breakfast croissants! Its location is also ideally situated for exploring what the area has to offer either coastal or further inland. Our trips included Gorges Du Verdon, Lac St. Croix, Grimaud, St Tropez and the Abbaye De Thoronet. Before flying home from Nice we made an excursion by train to Monaco - very easy to arrange and a wonderful end to our holiday. Although we generally do not return to the same place twice (so many places to see) we would make an exception for this superb Garden apartment and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it.

Fantastic Villa

Lorgues is a great little town with plenty of restaurants and a nice market with good but expensive produce. It's well placed for excursions to the mountains and the coast alike. The owners have gathered together lots of information for days out. We took their advice and headed into the hills on a really hot afternoon to the little hilltop village to the north which is both cool and spectactular. A car is essential. The entrance from the main road is quite tight but you do get used to it. The owners proudly showed us the main house which is huge and beautifully re-furbished. We had the apartment which is lovely too and by no means second best. It's really nicely furnished with a mix of simple contemporary pieces and some local market bargains. The open plan living/dining/kitchen space with views in 3 directions makes for convivial, lively atmosphere. There are books to read and lots of games provided for the odd dull day - not that there's many of those. The kids had lots of space in their twin room and and although the double bedroom isn't that spacious there is a large wardrobe/store opposite the door. Outside there are several discrete areas of garden and terrace to sit in at diferent times of the day. The pool is lovely, large and clean. It's too deep for our kids to touch the bottom which was a worry at first but by the end of the week they were both swimming without armbands. We had a truly fantastic holiday and will be back - in fact we've already booked it for 2010

Wunderbar

Das komfortabel eingerichtete Garden Apartment ermöglicht wunderbar entspannte Erholung. Die gesamte Anlage ist sehr gepflegt, der Garten bietet viele Plätze zum Entspannen, der große, geheizte Pool ist einfach herrlich. Man teilt sich die Anlage mit Gill und Alan, den sehr freundlichen, hilfsbereiten und diskreten Vermietern (die allerdings nicht immer da sind). Die Lage der Wohnung ist ideal: Wenn man aus dem Fenster schaut, wähnt man sich auf dem Land, der Blick geht über das gesamte Tal bis zu den Bergen. Trotzdem sind es nur ein paar Schritte in die schöne Altstadt von Lorgues mit guten Restaurants, gemütlichen Bars und kleinen Geschäften. Die Stadtnähe bezahlt man allerdings mit einigem Straßenlärm, besonders in den frühen Morgenstunden. Dennoch würden wir wiederkommen.
