Description
Moulin de Passais Retreats is set in the heart of the Normandy countryside. The stunning, tree-lined 5-acre lake serves as a back drop to your retreat.
We have a 2-bedroom stone cottage for guests; one double en-suite room and one triple sharing room with separate shower room. The kitchen is well equipped and the table and benches are perfect for "family-style" meals during retreats. The shepherd's hut provides additional accommodation on the lake. There is a double bed, has its own kitchenette and lounge area, and a terrace and compost toilet outside. Guests staying in the shepherd's hut would share the shower room in the main cottage.
There is a 50m2 wooden covered platform overlooking the lake for your retreat activities and another deck near the shepherd's hut which is a beautiful spot in late afternoons. Our forest area next to the cottage is also ideal to incorporate into your retreat, along with the meadows adjacent. Fire pits are dotted around the place which can also be used.
