Moulin de Chaise-Dieu du Theil

Moulin de Chaise-Dieu du Theil is a fishing and hospitality destination in Normandy, France, known as the country’s oldest fly-fishing course, established in 1968. Set across 12 hectares, the property offers three kilometres of river, five bodies of water and two lakes supplied by the Iton and natural springs. Its fishing grounds welcome beginners and experienced anglers for a respectful, nature-focused experience, with initiation sessions, lessons and guided outings led by a qualified instructor, available by reservation. The fish feed naturally, and the waters include rainbow trout, Arctic char and brown trout.

Beyond fishing, the Moulin offers three guest rooms and a lodge, along with a table d’hôtes, bar and tea room. Visitors can also browse fishing supplies, regional products such as smoked trout, and brocante items. The venue hosts seminars, events and group activities, including celebrations and farewell gatherings, and offers seasonal animations and fishing courses. Open Wednesday through Sunday, the Moulin brings together outdoor recreation, accommodation and Norman hospitality in a peaceful rural setting.
