Le Moulin à Vent

Yvane & Stéphane welcome you to a very rare, authentic, traditional old mill, full of character, built in 1810 (which once produced flour). Steeped in history and meticulously restored, it sits nestled in a bucolic, wild amphitheater of vineyards and meadows, on a gentle hillside, within a scattered rural hamlet overlooking the charming, typical little village of Saint-Désert. Located in the heart of the rolling, gentle wine-growing countryside of the Côtes Chalonnaises (protected as a ZNIEFF and Natura 2000 site for its rich flora and fauna), this peaceful landscape blends hedgerows, vineyard slopes, and wild forests (including the nearby Givry state forest, the literal "green lung" of the region). A very comfortable cottage boasting unusual, avant-garde contemporary architecture, including an atypical bathroom reminiscent of a ship's cabin and a wooden "tipi" bedroom nestled under the eaves, creating a romantic cocoon. Its warm, rustic charm is enhanced by the unique character of the place (preserved elegant stone lintels and walls with niches, beams, and a superb period stone staircase). It exudes charm and character, offering a delightful interplay between past and present in a cozy and inviting atmosphere. A pleasant 1500m² lawned garden, adorned with a fruit orchard (cherry, mirabelle plum, plum, peach, quince trees, etc.), opens onto meadows on a vast, largely natural 6000m² property, offering a sublime 360° panoramic view extending to Mont Blanc on a clear day!
