"This is the seventh time we've stayed in France and can honestly say that "The Old Walnut Mill" is the best equipped and most comfortable house we have come across so far. Extremely relaxing and a superb point from which to discover the treasures of the Loire Valley and surrounding areas. Many thanks to Jim and Pauline for putting in the extra effort to ensure that this cottage is a real home from home."
