Le Moulin Vollach (max. 22 personer)

Globe-trotters and multilingual, we have lived and worked for long years in South-East Asia and in Africa, before coming back to the Alsace region of our ancestors, where our four sons have grown up.

The acquisition of this mill, which dates from the 16th century and was erected by the Counts of Hanau Lichtenberg, was an act of emotional response 20 years ago, despite its dilapidated state at the time. The restoration has been a long adventure, difficult but very beautiful all the same (the “mill” part with the machinery of the time has not yet been restored). Our aim was to find a place of peace and quiet, amidst the green and undulating countryside, without any immediate neighbours but still sufficiently close to a small town with all the shops we needed, schools, railway station, etc. This has enabled us to bring our family life and professional career together in harmony. Our four sons, now young adults, have all chosen to pursue their professional careers and private lives far from Alsace, and that is why we are so pleased now to welcome groups of friends or families who, over a weekend or on a longer holiday, continue to keep this place alive, a place which, throughout its long history, has always been a place of meetings, encounters, festivities, and simply the joy of living!

This is an extraordinary country residence which has been transformed from a century old water mill with 2 trout inhabited rivers running through the property with fruit trees, meadows and woodland. It offers all modern comforts whilst retaining charm and authenticity. It has been restored using only high quality materials with full attention to details. .
