The perfect venue
As hosts we will either keep a discreet distance, giving you the space to quietly explore and enjoy the estate and Rix surroundings during your stay, or will welcome you into our home as our guests, taking an active part in your time at the mill and ensuring you get a true French experience. We can also share with you the professional background we built both in France and abroad – within companies or as entrepreneur – as well as our knowledge of French language and culture.
