Le Moulin de Corbel, St. Trimoel.
Spacious eighteenth century mill, sleeps 2 to 12 people.
Ideal for 2 families.  Recently decorated and exceptionally light and airy.

Le Moulin Corbel is a stunning, spacious eighteenth century mill set by a (fenced) millpond with trout, in 10 acres of land and woodland.  It provides the setting for the perfect holiday for one or two families. Sited just outside the village of St Trimoel in NW Brittany, it is close to boulangeries and tabacs, 12 minutes from the medieval town of Lamballe and all its facilities and 20 minutes from the Emerald Coast and its beautiful beaches.

The house is approached through a high gate and a 100 metre private drive leads to the house and a south-facing courtyard.  This looks on to the fenced millpond and its itinerant wildlife including trout and otters. The house, recently painted and refurbished, is exceptionally light and airy and comfortably sleeps 10-12 people.   It is divided into two parts, which are referred to as the house and the cottage. 

The cottage is within the house, as seen in the picture, but accessed separately, by stairs that runs up the front of the house.  (Years ago, this would have been the accommodation part of the mill.)  This slightly separate arrangement means that the house is ideal for two families, or family and grandparents or family and teenage children.  The house sleeps 7 and the cottage sleeps 5.

Details of the accommodation are as follows:

On the ground floor of the house the dining room furnished with an old country table seats 10-12 people. This leads on to the hall and a very large sitting room with sofas surrounding a traditional and functioning fireplace, table and chairs for games and writing, and a further sofa and chairs for television viewing.  Television, VCR and stereo/CD are provided.  The new kitchen has washing machine, dishwasher, fridge, freezer, oven/hob, toaster and kettle.  This floor has one lavatory.

On the first floor are one bathroom with bath, shower and second lavatory, and then three bedrooms leading off a roomy hall.  The master room contains one double bed, the second room has two single beds and the third room has adult sized bunk beds and a single bed.  There is a good quality put up bed that can be placed in the hall if necessary.  All bedrooms are light with wonderful views over the millpond.

The cottage comprises of a good sized-reception room with sofa bed, and chairs encircling an open fireplace and a dining room table seating four within a small kitchenette area.  The kitchenette is equipped with two ring stove, microwave, and fridge.  Upstairs in the cottage is the bedroom with double bed and single bed.  There is also a bathroom with shower and wc.

A large kettle barbecue and furniture is provided for outside dining.

Behind the house is a cottage garden, with fruit trees, vegetable patches and shrubs and flowers.  This leads down to and along the grassy banks of a small stream.  It provides quiet walks, picnic spots, fishing and hours of fun for any family.  Horse riding, tennis, golf, fishing, water sports and cycling are all within a short radius of the mill

Set in the beautiful and entirely unspoilt Breton farming countryside, the mill is only 12 minutes from the medieval town of Lamballe with its national stud, a bustling weekly market, good restaurants and all shopping conveniences. Just 20 minutes away is the Emerald Coast with its numerous peninsulas and promontories, spectacular sea views, and endless sandy beaches.  Further afield but a comfortable day trip are historic towns like medieval Dinan and seventeenth century St Malo, castles, cathedrals and churches, and, of course, the famous Mont St Michel.

In the area are any number of recommended restaurants offering delicious regional specialties from moules-frites, (mussels and chips) and homard a l’armoricaine (lobster cooked in brandy and white wine) to the more simple but many flavoured crepes and galettes.

Le Moulin Corbel is two hours from Paris by TGV train; 2 hours drive from Brest airport and just 40 minutes from Dinard (serviced by Ryan Air from the UK’s Stansted Airport).   The ferry ports of St Malo and Roscoff are 40 minutes and a one and a quarter hour drive respectively.

Facilities for small children include plastic plates, cups and cutlery, a high chair, porta cot, children’s bed linen and a tricycle.
