About this house rental

Step back in time for a relaxing romantic retreat in an authentic medieval village unchanged for centuries. Situated in the Burgundy wine district, Flavigny Sur Ozerain was chosen as the site for the movie 'Chocolat' for it's old world charm and sense of timelessness. Previously an artist's loft, this barn has been converted into a simple yet surprisingly contemporary home, ancient on the exterior with all of the modern conveniences inside. Come stroll the quiet streets of the walled hilltop village, listen to the church bells mark the time, and experience a life before all of the hustle of today's rat race!

3 hours drive southeast of Paris(an hour and twenty minutes on the TGV!) and an hour northwest of Dijon, between Beaune and Chablis, this home can offer a serene escape or act as the perfect springboard to the delights of Burgundy and the Cote D'Or. With the Restaurant de L'Abbaye, La Grange, and the Creperie Les Ursulines right in town, one needn't leave the village's serenity, but with Alesia's ruins and fabulous restaurant Le Cheval Blanc, Semur en Auxois's vibrant medieval shopping district, the Abbaye Fontenay, and Saulieu nearby there are many temptations to explore.

Come explore the joy of life in the French countryside, and discover what you love most about this enchanting destination!

This hilltop warren of stone houses without any adjacent modern town is a step back in time. This home in the heart of it is ancient and modern at once. Steps from the bakery and two restaurants (reservations recommended) we enjoyed them all. Nearby towns offer many more. choices and the roman/Gaul site of Julius Caesar's victory subjugating Vercingatorix and all of Gaul in 54 BC. Alesia. You need a car but the driving is extraordinary in itself. Wonderful Hosts made us feel at home. Heartfelt thanks to them.

We very much enjoyed our stay in this authentic and rustic cottage in Flavigny. There was everything there which we could possibly need for a comfortable holiday. Flavigny itself is a beautiful village full of charm. However, there is not a huge amount to do when the weather is cold and wet as it was for us. Rather limited too for dining out unless you travel further afield. Our hosts were very friendly and welcoming and we thank them so much for letting us spend a relaxing week in their cadeau français.

A frequent traveller this was easily one of the standout properties that I have ever stayed at. The location is wonderful and the home is picture perfect for some relaxation and a home base to tour the Bourgogne region. For food aficionados- the kitchen is well laid out and fully stocked with all that you need in hardware and service

A very much loved vacation home, that is for sure! With everything you need for a lovely stay for a couple in a beautiful village. We’ve rented this house before and it was a nice relaxing visit again. We recommend it!

The accommodation is very rustic and charming, beautiful garden and terrace to enjoy summer evenings. The owners did give us a pre warning that it may not be suitable for young kids (age 4) as there is an open loft and we need to watch the kids. So we didn’t leave them unsupervised. The kitchen is of high quality, very well stocked. The owners are very responsive to all questions and gave us detailed recommendations. It’s a bit tricky to drive to the property to offload bags with a bigger vehicle but we managed to park at a property nearby to do the packing and unpacking and then used the public parking lot to park our car which is 10 minutes away. Overall lovely stay, make sure to pack your mosquito spray in summer!

The property had a wonderful homely feel with a fanatically stylish interior. It was a treat to come back to at the end of a day sightseeing.
