Savonnières is a beautiful village, and has won the coveted
“Verte” classification. Moulin des Fontaines offers a relaxing holiday in one of
the three most popular tourist regions in France. It is also a convenient base
for traveling further afield, to destinations such as Normandy, Brittany,
Bordeaux and Paris. Le Grenier du Moulin will make your stay in France memorable
and pleasurable.
We hope you will give us the pleasure of having you to stay.
History : The mill probably dates back to the Gallo-Roman period, and the present building to the 13th or 14th century in its lower part, which is flanked by large buttresses. The mill continued to produce until 1949. Its wheel (the only major component no longer existing) measured 23 ft across. The gears and millstones are still in place. In addition, the building houses an exhibition on mills. The large and picturesque mill pond continues to form part of the property.
