Stone cottage in traditional Burgundy village

Description from the owner

A very pretty three storey stone cottage in excellent condition with charming enclosed walled garden and separate barn, set in the heart of a tranquil village on the east Tonnerrois border.

The house was recently renovated but still retains its traditional charm, including many original features, such as oak beams and stone walls, whilst offering all modern comforts, such as full central heating, well equipped kitchen with dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer, electric hob and oven, microwave and fridge/freezer.

The accommodation includes an open plan living area, with spacious kitchen/dining area, which comfortably seats... 7 people, and a comfortable raised lounge area with leather furniture, wood burning fire and Flat-screen TV (with UK satellite TV). WiFi broadband is also available.

There are four bedrooms set on two floors and the large bathroom has twin wash hand basins, power shower and Jacuzzi bath. There is a separate loo. Bed linen and towels are included in the price.

The pretty walled south facing courtyard style garden is graveled with flower borders and has an old stone well (filled in, so perfectly safe), and a separate stone barn housing logs for the log burner.

Local shops including boulangerie and small supermarket are 5 minutes drive away in Laignes and a bread van calls in the village daily (except Mondays).

  Welcoming Retreat

  We have stayed in this lovely traditional french country house a couple of times. It is a welcome retreat during the cold winter months. With central heating and a log burner you won't be cold. The spacious open plan living, dining an kitchen areas are great for family holidays. The bedrooms are very comfortable. The house is clean and tidy.

  Great place to relax and explore

  Left on 04/14/2011 for a stay in October 2010
  
  

  This is a lovely traditional French house set in heart of Burgundy. The house is set in a quiet village and is roomy, rustic and in good condition. We found it a great place to chill out and sample the delightful local wine and cheese.
  
  The Burgundy region is a lovely place to explore as well, including some very scenic river spots to cycle, fish, boat or just watch the world go by!
  
  If you have time, I would also recommend a drive to auxerre, as well the Champagne region.
