About this house rental

La Paillotte provides a relaxing and comfortable home-from-home in a peaceful village five minutes from Semur-en Auxois, a medieval market town.
Sleeping up to 7 in total, with a combination of double and single beds, the house is comfortable and fully equipped making it ideal for families or friends holidaying together. La Paillotte has a well stocked kitchen and a large BBQ is supplied. There is room for everyone to dine together in La Paillotte's large dining room or on its generous wooden terrace with views across the valley. An open fire may be welcome on chillier days, and ample wood is supplied.
The garden is fully enclosed and the swimming pool is surrounded by a security fence. A cot can be provided and dogs are allowed by prior arrangement. The terrace, garden and swimming pool all offer exceptional views across the Brenne valley.
There is room to park 4/5 cars off street and space to turn cars around. Board games and jigsaws are provided, garden games and pool inflatables are supplied. Fast WiFi and excellent mobile phone reception enable you to stay in touch with the outside world.
This is a perfect base from which to explore Burgundy or other nearby areas whether wine tasing in Chablis, Beaune or Dijon, cycling or walking along the Burgundian canals, visiting the charming French villages like Semur-en Auxois, Epoisses and Gevry Chambertain or visiting local attractions like Abbaye De Fontenay, Parc L'Auxois or Alesia-Museo Parc.
Across the courtyard is La Petite Paillotte, which also sleeps 7 people and has a play room and may be rented together with La Paillotte. If you rent only La Paillotte, the other house will not be let at the same time, so you have exclusive use of the pool and garden. If you wish to rent both houses for a party of up to 14 people, please see listing No. 10959767HA.

Beautiful house with everything we needed only 5 hours from Caen and with a beautiful view over the valley. Very prompt responses from George the property manager. We had a lovely holiday visiting nearby villages and sites of interest and would recommend this house and location in such a lovely part of Burgundy.

We have just packed up after a wonderful stay in this beautiful house. It was perfect for our needs, as grandad was able to stay on the ground floor, while the rest of the family had the upper floor. Well equipped kitchen, extremely comfortable beds and a view that our camera’s will never do justice to! Happy holiday-was all round…!

A fantastic house in the most sublime setting with views of the Burgundy countryside from the raised deck. George, the manager was helpful when we asked about an event in the nearby town and George’s wife was also when we had a minor medical issue. Everything we needed in the kitchen was provided - and we made a range of meals for 6 every day for a week! The beds were comfortable and the showers worked fine, even the internet was good and we had 4 IT dependent under 25’s with us! All in all a wonderful place to stay.

Great Place in a great location

We had a very enjoyable week staying at this property. The property was well equipped and comfortable. It was in a quiet village location, near to some good places to visit. It got a little hot upstairs with the mini heatwave we experienced but fans were provided, so we managed. We would recommend it.

Lovely house with wonderful view from the terrasse. The owners did a great thing restoring the house like this. Everything was well equipped: kitchen, bathrooms, garden furniture...A TV would have been nice too, f.i. when a person gets ill (like I did) it would have been nice to look at a DVD while the others were out of the house. Normaly I don't need a TV in a holiday house, but now it would have been nice. The surroundings are beautiful: lovely and peaceful villages, and a couple of nice towns such as Semur-en-Auxois. The heating wasn't functioning when we arrived but Richard and Caroline send a friend to have a look at it the day after. He could help us, but we still had to restart the whole system a couple of times and still couldn't get more then 19° in the living area. In the end this wasn't a great problem because the wheather became better and we still had a little 'mobile' radiator. (very useful in the bathroom downstairs in the morning) The logs for the fire place gave a lot of smoke in the room, probably because they still were a bit damp. But apart from this we had a lovely week! There was a person with us with restricted mobility but he too enjoyed the house very much with the sleeping room and shower room downstairs. There's enough parking space near the house, the swimming pool is lovely (though still very cold this time of the year) and shops are not far off (there's even a supermarket opened on sunday) . The owners were very friendly to let our 2 (little) dogs stay with us in the house. This was wonderful for us, because it's very hard to find places where there are 2 dogs allowed. I would surely recommend this house to friends!

Burgundy at its best.
Burgundy at its best.
A property that can be highly recommended from various aspects. The two houses are both well planned and exceptionally equipped; really there was nothing lacking. The open kitchen was great for communal cooking and each of our two families had ample space for ourselves. The village is very quiet but not far from shopping and a host of culteral sites. We especially enjoyed biking the area which is simply gorgeous with good, little traveled roads. A perfect get away location for one or two families. Burgundy at its best.
