France, Burgundy, Autun, Moulin Renaudiots

THE best way to extend your holiday when driving back from the South of France is to stop at Moulin Renaudiots. When we arrived we directly pitied the fact that we would only stay for one night...

Moulin Renaudiots is a 100% chocolateonyourpillow address. Beautiful location in the Burgundy countryside close to the Morvan, a charming completely renovated old watermill, a fantastic garden with swimming pool and multiple terraces, a tastefull and inspiring styling mix of local brocante and modern scandic design, but most importantly two enthusiastic hosts who give you a direct 'home away from home' feeling. And we are clearly not the only ones who had this experience, just have a look at the reviews on tripadvisor: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g187106-d1064030-Reviews-Moulin_Renaudiots-Autun_Burgundy.html

Although Moulin Renaudiots is ideal for a romantic escape a deux, our stay there with the kids was just perfect. There are no playgrounds or toys, but the swimming pool, the dog, lots of space to run and the child friendly approach of the owners compensate bigtime for this. A great example was when we booked to join the table d'hote Jan (one of the owners) directly offered to cook something simple for the kids an hour before, so that we could enjoy our dinner with the kids sound asleep. These are little things that are so memorable and that make a good place a GREAT place.     

Table d'hote




















But let me not forget to share THE best feature of Moulin Renaudiots: the table d'hote with the creations of the hosts. An absolute not to miss experience. The local (mostly organic) dishes are not only a sensation in your mouth but also for your eyes. And the fine Burgundy wines... the great setting... the lovely company... 


When we left Moulin Renaudiots we meant every part of 'Au Revoir'!
