Holidays Rental in Provence

Rent an authentic 18th century provencal windmill, facing the Pont du Gard

It would be wrong to think that the mill of Alphonse Daudet really belonged to him and that the house of Tartarin de Tarascon belonged to the character of the novel Tartarin de Tarascon! Some legends are very persistant in our region and Maître Cornille's mill is no exception to the rule.


Its millstones couldn't have ground any of Maître Cornille's wheat. And yet... similar in every part to Daudet's hero's mill, there's still a lovely smell of sweet Provence flour. Its wings are still in motion and still seem to echo the moving miller's words, a miller who was the victim of a too cruel progress. It preserved environment in a protected natural area make it look like a real postcard of Provence.

Everything's on it: view, tranquility, space, shade and mostly aromatic plants like thyme, rosemary... Cades, brooms, cypresses and sicadas enhance the authenticity of the place.

Finally, in front of you, the majestic bridge, le Pont du Gard offers a sight no one can be immune to. Alexandre Dumas was comparing it to a stone rainbow.


Le Moulin de Maître Cornille offers all modern conveniencies : 3 bedrooms, equipped kitchen, living room, dining room and bathroom.
A special care has been brought to decoration and the site is enchanting...
