Le Moulin de St Donat is possibly unique of its genre. Originally a hunting lodge, the cellars below the house go back at least 600 years. It is situated within its own grounds of 4 hectares and is unusual in the south of France in that it enjoys green grass and verdure through a large part of the year. The top end of the land has a natural spring which the owner has cleverly adapted to form a series of delightful fish ponds. It is this spring that keeps the rest of the gardens green, even in high summer.

The interior is styled in an eclectic manner with wonderful points of interest, such as the deep ruby leather of the sofa in the games room, or the unusual rotating worktops in the kitchen. If you are looking for a modern, squared-off villa then St Donat is probably not for you. On the other hand, if you are seeking a property with fascinating, unusual, and rare attributes then look no further! And fascinating, unusual and rare are not euphemisms for rustic, cheap or shabby; this is a classic property offering classy furnishings and decor.

The kitchen is very modern with brushed stainless steel worktops and interesting revolving cupboards. It's well-equipped for all the guests in the house.

The games room - suitable for all the family or a good place for the teenagers to hang out - offers a very large screen TV and a pool table. There is table football on the Garden Floor.

The master bedroom has its own garden room making it a great, relaxing 'get-away' spot for the parents with a lovely view across the garden and the valley. It even has its own entrance, making it even more secluded. All the bedrooms are of a good size and all have en suite facilities.

Meanwhile, out on the terrace you'll find massive hand-finished wood seats and dining for all guests. The terrace also houses a koi carp pool so the sound of gently rushing water will soothe and accompany you as you relax in the shade or dine with friends and family. You would be welcome to feed the fish on both the terrace and the fish ponds. This is a wonderfully therapeutic thing to do!

The terrace leads out to a handsome heatable pool adorned with Grecian columns. The pool is large at 11m x 6m. There is also a new electric sauna leading off the terrace.

Out of sight of the house and in the woods is the tennis court.

Just overlooking the house is the ancient Chapelle de St Donat. This tiny church has been the subject of extensive renovations sponsored by a charity and forms part of the Moulin de St Donat estate.
