Le Moulin de la Vanne

Dominique Popihn welcomes you to the Moulin de Saint Benoist sur Vanne. The 16th century building, built on the reach of the Château de Saint Benoist, has been completely restored to become a gîte (4 ears of corn) which can accommodate 12 people. From the entrance the scene is set, the mill machinery system has been preserved and the bags used to transport the flour decorate the walls of the large stairwell. On the ground floor, a large living room and a dining room invite you to spend a moment near the fireplace around the large table whose top was made from the wood of a tree from the castle park. A large, fully equipped kitchen adjoins the dining room. 6 spacious bedrooms with their private bathrooms, equipped with walk-in showers and separate toilets, are located on the 1st and 2nd floor. Outside, a large terrace with sun loungers and garden furniture awaits guests. The mill garden offers a beautiful view of the Vanne valley. The owner has planted an herb garden, thyme, chives, basil but also mertensia maritima, an astonishing plant with an oyster flavor, are available to enhance your dishes. Electricity is provided for the mill wheel. The reach being adjacent to the accommodation, children are the responsibility of the parents. The Moulin de Saint Benoist is located in the south of Champagne and a few kilometers from Burgundy in Pays d'Othe. A territory with a hilly landscape with a rich heritage, notably thanks to its fruity and tangy cider, its market halls, its rich 16th century glass heritage and the remarkable wooden rood screen of the collegiate church of the Assomption-de-la-Vierge in Villemaur -sur-Vanne, certified as the most important of the six rood screens remaining in France.
