Eric and Françoise welcome you to an authentic, traditional Morvan farmhouse dating back to 1881, fully renovated and nestled in the peaceful countryside of the upper Morvan. Enjoy peace and tranquility in the heart of a typical small agricultural and rural hamlet, nestled on a hillside in a splendid, unspoiled cirque of gentle mountains, offering the rare privilege of observing wildlife (foxes, deer, wild boar, birds, etc.). A magnificent landscaped setting of nature and greenery, nestled on the edge of fields and meadows, at the edge of a vast forest, overlooking the bucolic Ternin Valley and the village of Chissey-en-Morvan, the northernmost village in Saône-et-Loire. Located on the old Roman road linking Sens to Autun (remains to visit), the village boasts a notable heritage (numerous castles, manor houses, fortified houses, and mills) as well as superb landscapes. It is also designated an "International Dark Sky Reserve" (for the Morvan Regional Natural Park). The cottage offers comfortable accommodation. It has a warm, rustic charm with a vintage feel, combined with the gentle and exotic atmosphere of a former residence (original French-style ceilings, cement tiles, fireplace mantel, and stone walls). A large enclosed gravel courtyard features a spacious terrace (sunny or shaded as desired). A welcome bonus: fresh, seasonal vegetables are provided by the owners, straight from their family garden. Composition: Detached house next to the owners' residence and the other gîte on the property (completely independent). Wi-Fi (fiber optic). Electric heating. Ground floor gîte: kitchen, living/dining room (double bed 140x190cm), 1 bedroom (double bed 140x190cm), shower room, separate WC. Enclosed courtyard/terrace and private parking. Small grocery store 3 km. Shops 7 km. Picturesque little agricultural & rural hamlet nestled in the heart of the Morvan Massif! Authentic traditional farmhouse dating from 1881, located in the heart of the Morvan countryside in a bucolic setting preserved from nature & greenery, 7 km from the charming small typical & commercial town of Lucenay l'Evêque. A soothing landscaped setting of gentle mountains, combining meadows & deep wild forests, nestled in the very heart of the Morvan Natural Park, on the routes of the Romanesque churches circuit & marked footpaths in "green walks" (a very rich network of similar paths, winding through nature, to be explored on the massif), 9 km from the renowned GRP of the "Grand Tour of the Morvan Massif" (connected to several GRs), 9 km from the mythical mountain bike route of the GTMC (Grand Traversée du Massif Central), 14 km from the greenway (in its "all-terrain" version connected to a marked cycle route) and about fifty km from the first vineyards of the Couchois crossed by the "Route des Grands Vins" (Côtes Chalonnaises adjoining the Côtes de Beaune). A splendid wild and preserved environment nestled on the border of Côte d'Or and Nièvre (and the territory of the "Great Lakes of Morvan"), in the heart of the Autunois-Morvan, a sumptuous natural territory, steeped in history, imbued with legends and mysteries, rich in a very rare historical heritage as well as absolutely magnificent landscapes. Ideally located in the heart of Burgundy, 21 km from Saulieu, 23 km from Autun (a designated "City of Art and History" boasting an invaluable heritage spanning over 2,000 years of human presence), 24 km from the renowned Lac des Settons (with its supervised sandy beach, water sports center, and numerous aquatic activities), 33 km from Château-Chinon, 39 km from the famous Gallo-Roman archaeological site of Bibracte, a prestigious "Grand Site de France" site, 45 km from the medieval town of Nolay, and 59 km from the Le Creusot TGV train station. Both cottages on the property (including cottage no. 1837) can be rented together, accommodating up to 8 people. An ideal, affordable retreat for a relaxing, nature-filled getaway, perfect for couples or families!
