Hotel Moulin aux Draps is a charming, modern, hotel tucked away in the peaceful countryside of the Pas-de-Calais, near the town of Desvres in Northern France. The perfect place for a quiet weekend away and an ideal location from which to explore the secrets of this fascinating region.
Only forty minutes from Eurotunnel Le Shuttle Calais Terminal and within striking distance of the Opal Coast, Boulogne, Lille, World War historical sites, fascinating museums, fantastic restaurants and golf courses with beautiful countryside you can explore by foot or bicycle.
In our restaurant you will find fine food and heavenly views. On summer evenings, watch the sun go down. In winter, the ceramic fire adds a homely glow. The menu changes each day and traditional French dishes are a plenty. Only the finest locally sourced produce is used.
The rooms
Our English-speaking manager Francois and his small, friendly team will go out of their way to make each guest feel comfortable and at home. And, after all that exploring and relaxing, you can look forward to a cosy night in one of our lovely rooms...
At Le Moulin we have standard double and twin rooms, family rooms, dormitories and fabulous rooms on the ground floor with wheelchair and disabled access. All our rooms are en suite with loads of hot water for your shower or bath, plenty of soft white towels and there's even a hair dryer so you don't need to pack one. There is also a fridge for keeping your water and wine perfectly chilled. If you're into French TV, then there is a flat-screen television in each room.
Free Wifi is also available. And, if there is anything else that you need then you only have to ask our manager Francois or one of the team at reception – we want to make you feel totally at home...
Restaurant & bar
Fine food and heavenly views….
The picturesque views from the restaurant at Le Moulin set the scene for a perfect meal. On summer evenings, watch the sun go down. In winter, the ceramic fire adds a homely glow. Our chef Eric changes the menu each day and traditional dishes are his absolute forte.
Eric also has a wonderful way with fish and with France's largest fishing port, Boulogne-sur-Mer so close he regularly comes up with some mouth-watering fish dishes. If you are lucky, you'll get to try Eric's favourite dessert, omelette à la norvégienne (Norwegian omelette), otherwise known as Baked Alaska. This show-stopping pudding, made from ice-cream and cake, is so difficult to create yet exceedingly easy to eat. Eric's Creme Brûlée is a dream too so don't be shy.
