About this house rental

Our 2-bedroom house is in a charming village which sits on the River Yonne and Canal du Nivernais in rural Burgundy. The interior has been kept faithful to the style and decor of the prior owner, an old Frenchwoman. Fast wifi internet is available in the house. It features two good-sized double bedrooms (plus a fold-out bed), a large dining room, a sitting room and a small kitchen. The bathroom has a shower, toilet and illuminated vanity/sink. Towels and washers are provided, and the cleaning costs are included in the price. Please note that the garden is detached from the house - only 10 metres away on the other side of number 22. It has a table and 4 chairs and clothes lines to dry your washing, but is not private from the street.

The village is very well appointed for its size with amenities including a tiny but comprehensive grocery store, a superb boulangerie (bakery), cafe/bar, restaurant, pharmacy, hairdresser, service (gas) station, marina on the canal, wine cellar and more. The village is overlooked by a lovely old church which has a 9th century crypt.

The neighbours are friendly, and the rural nature of the area makes driving easy. Don't miss the Thursday morning markets in the main square, or for larger shopping needs, Avallon and Auxerre are just 26km (16 miles) and 37km (23 miles) respectively. Or catch a train to Clamecy (17km). The village has a railway station (Corbigny line) which is 1km (0.62 miles) from the house - a 10-12 minute walk.

We recommend drives in the country; walks or bike rides along the canal tow paths; fishing in the river and canal; visiting vineyards; chateaux and abbeys, sampling the delicious local cuisine and wines, and browsing in antique stores. Buy fresh bread, croissants and delicacies every day from the bakery, and on Wednesday (when it's closed), have a croque monsieur and a coffee at the cafe/bar in the main square while watching the world go by. Vezelay is a UNESCO heritage-listed village just 15km (9 miles) away, and the Caves of Arcy-sur-Cure are just 18km (11 miles) away. The wine growing area of Chablis is about 40km away - the whites are superb.

Everything in the gite that was necessary. A wonderful location in an enchanting village.

I was torn between 4 stars and 5. I settled on 4 because the apartment is not perfect, but I was tempted to 5 because the price is so reasonable that ‘perfect’ seems an unreasonable demand. The location is convenient both within the village and within the region. The place is quiet & spacious & generally well-furnished & comfortable. The shower is good. Access was easy and the owner, though not local, was very responsive to emails. What was not perfect? The apartment is noticeably darker than the photos would suggest—why I chose “lair” in my heading. It’s a bit dowdy. And, to me the most annoying thing & the easiest to fix: the bed pillows were square, flat, & hostile; bad enough to detract from a good night’s sleep. But let me end on a most positive note: for the price, you would be hard-pressed to do better (especially once you hear the pillows are new).

Nice, well-appointed house in quiet village. Garden a bit of a disappointment Lots to see and do in the area

From friendly neighbours bringing baskets of cherries from their gardens to the Jazz night in the village square this traditionally furnished cottage in Burgundy allows you to experience French life first hand. Great for two couples.
