What a lucky find to end up staying at the watermill at St Jean just outside Loches. Right from the start John and Liam his son, made us welcome. Rather than go out for dinner we were able to have a very pleasant evening by the river. We booked in for dinner with them the next night - wich we... More

We stayed at this gorgeous B & B for 2 nights and absolutely loved it! It is not only amazingly serene and beautiful but also perfectly located. This old watermill has a lot to offer, it is close to many main attractions and yet away from any noise and hustle and bustle of the streets. The rooms are very pretty,... More

This uniquely restored watermill was a great centrally located home-base for our stay in the Loire Valley. John and Bernadette were very welcoming and chatty. The breakfasts served each morning were very generous with a great selection of foods to enjoy. Our room was quite comfortable and spacious, as was the ensuite bathroom, but both could have had better lighting... More

If you want to explore the Loire Valley, then The Moulin St. Jean is the place to stay, we were there for six days and Villandry, Chaumont, Saumur and Chinon are all within easy driving distance. It has been tastefully restored, although a little more thought might have been given to the positioning of power sockets in our bathroom. This... More

This is our 3rd visit to the beautiful watermill, it's always just perfect, great food and home from home accommodation. Looking forward to the next time,

It’s a beautiful water mill and has been authentically and tastefully refurbished and the rooms are nicely presented, with thoughtful personal touches. We chose to have dinner on the terrace for one evening. The food was good value at 25 euros, although the chef mentioned in... More

Unfortunately we only had one night at Le Moulin but what a treat it was. The setting is divine and even better than the beautiful website photos had led us to expect. On arrival we were cordially greeted by the English family who ran the place, even though they were in the midst of dealing with a minor plumbing disaster.... More

My boyfriend and I often say how we wish we were back at Le Moulin de St Jean. (Sigh.) This place is just idyllic! It really is set on it's own little island and is surrounded by water, which is instantly relaxing. John is a fantastic host - very friendly and fun - and we were lucky enough to also... More

We had a truly brilliant 2 nights at the moulin on the way back from our wedding in the south of france. It was a lovely spot to spend some of our "mini-moon" - great hospitality, lovely food, idyllic scenary and the lovely medieval town of Loches on the doorstep.
