Vacation Rental Description

Recently renovated to a very high standard, yet carefully preserving its unique character, this holiday cottage comprises a substantial part of a stone-built former traditional French farmhouse. It provides a comfortable base for a relaxing holiday close to some of Burgundy's best known vineyards. With three bedrooms and two shower rooms, this spacious gite can easily accommodate three couples or a larger family party and offers private fishing, use of the owners' pool and internet access.

This holiday home is situated between the Cote d'Or wine centre of Beaune to the east and Autun, the former capital of France in Roman times, to the west. The medieaval city of Dijon, meajestic seat of the Dukes of Burgundy, with its famous cathedral and Musee des Beaux Arts is about an hour's drive to the north. This region of France is rich in architectural history and boasts the famous world heritage site of Vezelay, monastic remains at Cluny, the mosaic tiled roof of the Hospice at Beaune and the amphitheatre at Autun. Throughout Burgundy there are numerous abbeys and romantic chateaux just waiting to be visited. Just 20 minutes drive to the northwest, the Morvan National Park offers opportunities for long distance walking, pony trekking and boating on the Lac de Settons and for the archaeologically minded, a fascinating day out awaits at the ancient Celtic city of Bibracte set high in the Morvan hills.

Les Glycines gite is set amongst wooded countryside with views of rolling hills and fields belonging to the local chateau. There is easy walking and biking straight from the door. The house has been carefully renovated by the present owners who live on site and who are at hand to answer queries and offer any assistance needed. Guests benefit from their own enclosed garden with gazebo and outdoor furniture and barbecue. They are also invited to share the owners' pool and, depending on the time of year, may receive offers of fresh garden produce.

In the summer, outside entertaining is easy with steps leading to the garden from both the farmhouse kitchen and the traditional style salon. Meanwhile, the interior with its cosy log fire provides a warm welcome at any time of year. The hydromassage shower upstairs adds an extra touch of luxury!
