WE DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE….

Our stay was perfect! The home and surroundings were stunning and serene. Located in a very tiny village, it gave us a feeling of security and peacefulness. (We are two 77 year old ladies, friends since we were 10). The home was better equipped than most personal homes……there was nothing we could not find! Plenty of linens, great beds, charming decor. Many town and sights within a hour’s drive. Carcassone, Albi, Mirepoix, Lautrec. Exceptional stay. The hostess Maryse and her husband couldn’t have been more helpful and delightful! Thank you.

Un lieu ressourçant

Le moulin du Chayla est un endroit idéal pour une famille appréciant la nature, les randonnées, les visites culturelles, les baignades dans les lacs et rivières. La location est bien équipée et très agréable ! !

Séjour parfait

Un endroit idéal pour se retrouver en famille ou entre amis La maison offre tant de possibilités d activités de plein air ou à l intérieur qu on a a peine envie de la quitter pour explorer les environs. La maison est équipée de tout ce dont vous pouvez avoir besoin et les aménagements sont absolument conformes à la description. Charme,nature calme nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour et les participants, de 20 à 60 ans ont tous été séduits. La rivière qui passe si prés de la maison est indéniablement un atout majeur.

Perfect destination for our family reunion

The old mill was a perfect destination for our family reunion. It is an exceptional property, fully renovated and exquisitely decorated, minutes away the medieval towns of Sorèze and Revel. The house is orientated to the South, flooding the rooms with light during the day. It is significantly larger than it appears on VRBO pictures. We particularly appreciated the comfort of the perfectly appointed bedrooms with high quality beddings, the large kitchen and family/dining room that enabled us to cook and entertain, the separate library/TV room for quiet moments, and an eclectic collection of books all around the house. The house has picturesque surroundings including a stream (“Le Sor”), a stone bridge, woods, and a large field for outside activities and walks. Maryse was a terrific host. She was very responsive and provided us with excellent recommendations for all the local delies. Must-see nearby attractions include the museum of Dom Robert in Sorèze, the belfry of Revel, and the bassin of Saint-Ferréol supplying the Canal du Midi.

Un havre de nature confortable

Venus pour des raisons professionnelles, nous avons passé un excellent séjour. Le gîte est un ancien moulin au bord du Sor (le doux bruit du cours d’eau est reposant). Il est très confortable (belle qualité de literie), meublé avec goût ; il possède tout pour se sentir comme chez soi (plaisir de pouvoir flâner devant les bibliothèques). Merci à Mme Vergne pour son accueil chaleureux. Une à adresse à redécouvrir pour des vacances afin de profiter des extérieurs.

A stunning home in a picturesque setting

We had the most wonderful stay in Durfort. Jean and Maryse are excellent hosts and presented the house beautifully. They provided everything you would need with thoughtful touches. The home is beautifully decorated and the beds are extremely comfortable. The most special part of this home is it’s setting. It is in a valley just 200 meters from the artisan village of Durfort. There is a river running through the garden which is magical and provided the setting for some memorable lunches. We will definitely be back.
