The moulin is a beautiful property in beautiful grounds. It's very spacious and is a genuine heritage building with modern comforts. The air conditioning in the bedrooms was very welcome when it was hot.A river runs through the grounds and it was fantastic to have access to the kayaks and to be able to canoe up the river with freedom. It is a haven for wildlife in a very quiet country area and we loved spotting the variety of birds and animals.Also, Estelle was a great host, excellent communication and very friendly and helpful. Thank you very much for wonderful family holiday.

Wow! This place is magical. The pictures are accurate but don't fully capture how nice it is. The property is quite unique; you are in and old mill. Very spacious, very comfortable. The mill stream and garden are stunning. We used the canoes to paddle up the river, which was very special. Petanque in the evenings. We had every meal on the lovely terrace overlooking the mill stream. Nicolas and Estelle were wonderful hosts.

Cadre magnifique en pleine nature

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour au Moulin de Briand. Situé en pleine nature, le cadre est magnifique avec ce grand jardin arboré et la rivière. La maison est grande et confortable pour une famille nombreuse. Les plus : le terrain de pétanque, les canoës, le barbecue, les jeux de société. Idéalement placé pour rayonner en Bretagne, Pays de Loire et en Normandie.

Un bel endroit plein de charme

Accueil très sympathique des gérants, propreté impeccable des lieux, beauté du cadre, calme, possibilité d'emprunter des barques et canoës pour se ballader sur la rivière attenante au moulin (super chouette à faire !!), charme de la bâtisse, literie confortable (les cadres de lits anciens peuvent être juste un peu "restrictifs" pour les gens de grande taille). Nous avons passé un agréable séjour entre amis ! C'est un bel endroit où nous aurons plaisir à revenir pour découvrir la faune & flore sur une autre saison !

Endroit magnifique pour un fabuleux week-end

Que dire! L'endroit est vraiment reposant et joli. Se dire qu'on a dormi dans un moulin rénové, c'est assez unique dans son genre. Franchement ca vaut le détour. La cuisine est sympa. Le salon bien aménagé. Les chambres sont bien arrangés. Le terrain est parfait pour un barbecue! Pour ceux qui mesurent plus d'1m90 il faut faire attention car il y a certains endroits qui sont assez étroit. Mais en dehors de ca. Je recommande fortement! Merci encore pour cette découverte !

Absolutely beautiful property in stunning grounds. Perfect place for unwinding.

The moulin surpassed all our expectations; the photos didn't do justice to how stunning this property is. Extensive grounds, perfect for relaxing and a dream for a photography mad husband! Loads of wildlife, including coypus and a resident duck we called Keith! Perfect place to unwind but within driving distance of places like Vitre and Rennes. Great we had use of a boat and canoe for trips down the river. The owners were extremely welcoming and helpful. Thank you Estelle and Nicolas from the Crew family.
Response from VrboOwner on 22 Mar 2020
Elizabeth and her family were very nice. They let the mill very clean and never were loud during their stay. We recommand the Crew family which even offer us to send us their photos of the area. That warms our hearts. You're of course welcome if you ever want to come again. Estelle and Nicolas
