About a week ago we had the good fortune to stay in Blere at the Moulin du Fief Gentil. Madame Fleurance Heurtebise was an excellent hostess. We had a rental car from EuropCar that we had reserved and picked up in Caen, France across from the train station. We picked it up on a late Friday afternoon. We needed to... More

My wife and I stayed for three nights in the Clementine room and had a wonderful time. The room, B&B and grounds are all lovely, and Florence was very helpful. We had great weather while we were there, so we were able to enjoy the patio and pond in back. The location couldn't be better for touring the various chateaus... More

My wife and I recently stayed at Moulin du Fief Gentil and we enjoyed our stay very much. The town of Blere is a great jumping off point to visit the many Chateaus in the region. Before we arrived we had contacted Florence to let her know we would be arriving earlier than expected. She was very accommodating in staying... More

We stayed at Moulin for several days and felt very welcome there. The room was great - firm bed and comfortable bath. We were fortunate to be there on an evening that the hostess cooked a fabulous dinner. We felt like family, rather than guests. The host and hostess are interesting and hospitable people. We would stay here again. Location... More

My wife and I recently moved to Paris, and we've started to explore various regions of France. Using Rick Steve's book, we chose to stay and eat at Moulin du Fief Gentil, a bit unsure what to expect, as it sounded 'unique.' As it turned out, our evening there was both unique and magical, far exceeding our fondest hopes. Frankly,... More

My husband and I booked several nights at Moulin du Fief Gentil, in order to tour the Loire Valley. After our first, very rainy day of chateau-hopping, we arrived back at the B&B soaked to the skin, looking forward to a hot shower. The four towels that were rationed (I had to plead with Fleurence for a wash cloth), were... More

Moulin du Fief is near Chateau de Chenonceau and an easy drive to Cheverny. After a day of sightseeing, sitting under a lovely tree by the pond was both relaxing and rejuvenating. Our room was spacious and immaculate and the food was excellent. The owner, Florence, was very helpful in recommending local restaurants. The highlight of our stay was a... More

We chose to stay outside the main tourist area of Amboise. Bléré is a small town about 15 minutes from Amboise and Chenonceau. We stayed in an atmospheric and comfortable, 400 year old mill property with a lovely pond and gardens, and a charming hostess/chef. The common areas of Le Moulin are very comfortable and well-stocked. Le Moulin du Fief... More

We stayed in Moulin du Fief Gentilfor 3 nights in June 2011. It was the most enjoyable experience. Florence and François, the owners, are just wonderful! Highly recommended.
