WHAT YOU WILL VISIT
Marie Ravenal Mill
Dating from the 18th century, the Moulin Coudrairie operated until 1935. Abandoned for 64 years, the thatch-roofed mill was reopened and renamed 'Marie Ravenel' after a miller-poetess who lived here for over 30 years. Today, the giant waterwheel is back in operation - driving the gears that turn the stones to crush wheat into flour. In the charming old kitchen, join the master baker who'll reveal the secrets of French bread making. From shaping the dough to sliding your fragrant finished loaf from the wood-burning oven, lose yourself in the wondrous sensations and smells of this age-old process. While your bread bakes, tour the mill's workings, visit an exhibition titled 'Intérieur Normand' detailing rural life of the past and enjoy a delicious lunch.
LUNCH
Enjoy a lunch of fresh-made pizza baked in the wood-burning oven.
