Les Ateliers du Moulin 14

At the foot of a Jura hillside, 300 m from the town centre, nature comes to town. The property has a delightful country feel: gardens, orchard, canal and river. The water rests, sings or cascades. The terraces look out over the rolling hills and surrounding escarpments. The city's many resources and nearby traffic are all but forgotten. This gîte, converted in 2024 from a carpentry workshop built on top of a very old mill, offers a comfortable welcome in a neat open-plan room with an imposing volume: 90m² and 8.5m under the ridge, the living room/lounge/kitchen/dining room opens onto the mill wheel in the basement. This wheel comes to life as you please. There is also a 45m² kitchen, lounge, dining room, games room and television room. A total of 2 fully equipped kitchens. A rare advantage: the same group - families or friends - can combine independence and communal living in a single rental. The Jura mountains and the great outdoors mean that you'll have fondue, raclette, pierrade and plancha facilities at your disposal.
On the ground floor, there are 2 bedrooms, one with a double bed (160/200), the other with twin beds (90/200), 2 shower rooms and 2 WCs. There is also a convertible sofa in the lounge. On the 1st floor, 4 bedrooms for up to 10 people (1 double bed 180 and 8 twin beds), 3 shower rooms and 1 separate WC. Outside, a wooden terrace overlooks a lawn, while another offers a view of the property and surrounding countryside. Ideal for keeping cool in summer, the sheltered north gallery overlooks the orchard, river and surrounding coastline. Carport for 2 cars unless you prefer to play table tennis there. Free, easy parking in the car park adjacent to the gîte. Orchard access and paths on the property, small canal and its tunnel, pond and cascading stream alongside the mill, shallow river banks bordering the property. GR59 on the other side of the bridge over the river. Next door - the icing on the cake - a bakery and patisserie with wood-fired bread. Poligny enjoys a fine reputation for its heritage, facilities and entertainment. Come and discover!
