Part of a re-built watermill
(Reference:615)
At the end of a tree lined drive, Moulin de Samaran is 4.5 kms from L'Isle-en-Dodon. Substantially re-built in its original style during the 1990s and dating back to 1728, the watermill on the banks of the River Save and straddling its mill leat, is surrounded by a small formal garden and 18 acres of park and woodland which constitute its river island. Comprising 3 gites, sun terrace and poolhouse the Moulin de Samaran is the place on which to close the door on the rest of the world and relax. Covering the entire top floor of the Mill, FIGUIER is a spacious gite having good views across the river and valley from all the rooms.

Two double rooms and one twin bedded room, all having views over either the millpond or the mill leat

One large shower room and one smaller shower room

The large reception room is furnished in a modern style with settees, armchairs, dark wood furniture together with original works of art and antique prints.

The kitchen is fully equipped and has a gas hob, grill oven, microwave, large refrigerator. There is also a large dining table with seating for six

All towels and bed lines are supplied, changed weekly

Easy access to the main sun terrace overlooking the formal garden and river. The terrace has tables, chairs, umbrellas and sunloungers.

L'Isle-en-Dodon has a good range of supermarkets, greengrocers, banks, chemists, bars and small restaurants Market day is Saturday

Our local village ANAN is half a kilometre north, along the D17. A quiet place with the church, Mairie and village school grouped around the square-cum-car park. The nearest shops are in L'ISLE-EN-DODON four and a half kilometres away. It is an interesting bastide town, with its fortified XIVth church where Wellington is thought to have stayed overnight on his way to the Battle of oulouse.Opposite the church is the Mairie and market halls. An odd building which has been described as 'a railway station in search of a railway'! The lively MARKET arrives SATURDAY and augments the 3 bakers, 3 newsagents, 2 banks, 2 greengrocers, 3 chemists, 2 butchers, wine shop, 6 bars and a post office.
There are also two supermarkets, one a Casino convenience store in the centre of town and an Ecomarche on the road to Toulouse, past the petrol station.
For culture vultures, then TOULOUSE is a must. The Rose City is a colourful metropolis which has not suffered at the hands of modern developers. Sit in the Capitole (different markets up to 3 times a week), have a coffee and people watch. We can recommend a short self- conducted WALKING TOUR starting from the CAPITOLE. Taken at a leisurely pace, this is the perfect way to immerse yourself in the style of the city. More information at owners' website below
