About this property

Former wine merchant's house, sleeps 7, private pool, stunning view

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.

Wonderful property - great for families

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 wonderful stay

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.

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.

Grands espaces, bonne literie, mobilier et nombreuses vaisselles d’aspect vieillot, belle vue sur la terasse et piscine agréable. Les salles de bain sont très minimalistes et le ménage pourrait être amélioré (toile d’araignées partout) parking sécurisé, village très calme proche de nombreuses visites intéressantes.

Notre séjour à La Paillotte a été très réussi sur tous les plans. La maison est fonctionnelle et conviviale tout en permettant que chacun trouve son propre espace. Même une personne âgée peut s'y sentir très bien. Elle permet de faire de tres belles découvertes culturelles à proximité de Lantilly. Nous avons beaucoup aimé, beaucoup lu et beaucoup cuisiné en toute tranquilité et souhaitons revenir dans la région!.

Plussen en minnen

Prachtige omgeving in de buurt van het Canal de Bourgogne. Geen winkels of bakker in de buurt. Prima zwembad, wel wat smal omdat de bodem aan de zijkanten hoog is. Tuinset zwaar gietijzer, niet erg comfortabel. Wel heerlijke ligbedden bij t zwembad. Rare lucht in de beneden slaapkamer. Inrichting erg gedateerd. Apparatuur keuken prima. 1 bed boven met flinke kuil. Verder goede bedden. Overal kleedjes, waar wij niet zo van houden qua hygiëne.

Precies wat we zochten

Zeer goede en duidelijke instructies. Alles zoals omschreven in de aankondiging. Gastheer reageert onmiddellijk. Goed ingerichte woning met al het nodige aanwezig. Zwembad goed omheind en poortje met kinderslot. Tuin goed omheind voor hond. Ons favoriete plekje: het ruime terras achteraan met fantastisch vergezicht.

Wir haben eine Woche in diesem liebevoll eingerichteten Haus verbracht. Die Ausstattung, insbesondere, wenn man gerne kocht, ist hervorragend. Alle Zimmer sind sehr sauber und großzügig. Auch sind die Betten sehr bequem und nicht durchgelegen. Der hundesicher eingezäunte Garten und Poolbereich ist ebenfalls sehr gepflegt und lädt zum entspannen ein. Eine absolut empfehlenswerte Unterkunft!!!

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.

Das Haus bzw. beide Häuser haben gehalten, was das Inserat versprochen hat. Schöne, geschmackvolle und komfortable Einrichtung. Alles hat funktioniert - was in Frankreich nicht immer der Fall ist... :-) Platz genug für 3 Paare (wenn man das 2. Haus mitgemietet hat). Auch der Verwalter George ist top. Sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

Private gem in the middle of the Bourgogne

This beautiful maison offers tranquility, comfort and stunning views with lots of fun short trips within a 20 minute drive. The maison has been beautifully renovated, offering comfort without losing it's French rural charm. We stayed in the house with 5 persons and it felt very spacious! The pool was such a treasure for us during two weeks of sun, and the view from the pool and terrace is beautiful. Getting into the house was very easy by accessing the keysafe. A few days prior to arrival George sent us a very helpful guide, offering lots of tips and tricks about the house and the (local) area. We were lucky enough to meet George in person (socially distanced of course) and the contact we had face-to-face and via phone was very pleasant. The house offers all the necessary facilities and shops are a short drive away in several directions. Same goes for restaurants. We definitely will visit again!

About the host

Hosted by George Gray

Host profile image
Our local manager George Gray manages the property which is owned by James and Amanda Mallender. La Paillotte was a wine merchant's house that was bought and renovated by our family over 25 years ago. Our children have grown up holidaying here and we have enjoyed many fun times with family and friends.
We have recently implemented a programme of works to upgrade the facilities, replacing furniture, bedding and towels etc and add new resources like toys for the garden and swimming pool.

Why they chose this property

The area is quiet. Although the nearby medieval town of Semur-en-Auxois is a tourist attraction, nowhere feels busy. There are plenty of places to walk, swim or cycle. You can visit nearby towns, villages or attractions like Abbaye de Fontenay which is a world heritage site or the beautiful town of Beaune. And the food and wine is amazing!

What makes this property unique

La Paillotte is spacious and located in a quiet village. It is well equipped and provides a perfect place to relax with family and friends. But there is plenty to see and do in the local area if a more active holiday is preferred
