'Le Moulin de Palbas' lies at 5 kms from the center of a village of 500 souls, Pruniers, in the heart of the Berry region, 250 kms South of Paris, in the Indre. The Berry region is rich in history ('les Ducs de Berry) and culture, but has not been discovered by tourists yet. The rivers Cher and Indre flow quietly, the landscape is hilly with meadows and forest.
The nearby forest and the country roads invite you to long or short walks (several villages have set out walks going from 5 to 40 kms) and bike-tours, or trips on horseback. Do bring your pet, if it's a cat, dog or horse: they will love it here too! You may wish us to prepare a pick-nick basket, you can use the outdoor pool, go fishing or birdwatching. The kids will be having fun in the playground, playing table football or table tennis while you enjoy your drink on the terrace. In the nearby village you can play tennis, there are several itineraries in the neighbourhood.
If you prefer cultural activities, you won't be disappointed either: two of the most picturesque villages in France are to be found in the Indre region.
