"Un petit coin de
paradis" - this is how the French refer to Le Moulin de
Chaquel.
It truly is a little
corner of paradise, with over nine acres of nature reserves,
meadows, woods and streams.
It is a place to
relax, chill out and get back to nature. The
only sounds you'll hear are the wind in the trees, the
water tumbling over the rocks and the birds singing.
Le Moulin de Chaquel
is situated in a tranquil, wooded valley just a couple
of miles from Pluvigner, which is on the D768 between
Baud & Auray and is about 160k/100m from St Malo.
We are just south of
the beautiful and extensive Forêt Domaniale de Camors
(lakes, walking and wildlife) .
Detailed directions
and maps are available on
[Maps - How to find us].
Our nearest town is Pluvigner
- population 5600 - supermarkets, boulangeries, charcuteries,
bars, restaurants, etc. We are just 15k north of
Auray and the Golfe du Morbihan (beautiful
inland sea full of islands) and the magical Riviére
d'Etel is only 10k to the south west of us.

We have easy access to the coast
with its many fine sandy beaches (swimming,
windsurfing, parasurfing, etc.), the extensive local
forests and many local lakes and rivers (fishing
and boating). The Golfe has 365 islands and there
are boat trips to many of these as well as out to the offshore
islands of Belle Ile and Ile de Groix.
There are just too many local attractions
to list them all here! See
[Local
Activities] for more details.
