Sassenay rentals with pool

We were delighted with this lovely property. It’s very charming with an aged feeling that kept on surprising us. We were a four generation family, with some friends coming and going. The cooks among us were very happy in the well-equipped kitchen and the bedrooms large and beds comfortable. The bathrooms were slightly quirky in a French way but the hot water pressure and availability were great. The pool was fantastic with a huge garden including various interesting areas. The sunken pond area - which I called the ‘Roman bath’- was fascinating. Near the pool is a great BarBQ area with a proper outdoor table setting. Our host Sigrid was very helpful answering questions - like which Nespresso pods we needed - the original ones. It’s a flat 20-25 minute walk from the train station but you really need a car to explore the area.

We absolutely loved our stay in Burgundy. The property is beautiful, the views gorgeous and local produce at butcher/baker was delicious. We cooked at home each night and sat on the wonderful balcony. The pool was also a lot of fun - swim with a view! Our only negative is to bring everything you need. We had to buy washing powder, dishwasher powder, garbage bags etc as nothing was provided.

We had good communication with Nathalie before and throughout our stay, as she lives next door. The house is a 10 minute drive to Beaune in a quite street and pleasant village setting. If you're cycling, as we did, it's an easy cycle into Beaune using off road trails. The house is well presented with comfortable rooms, great showers (very important!) and a large lounge/kitchen area. We sat out the front garden as that is where the sun was in the afternoon but it's still private. Overall, the area beat our expectations and cycling through the vineyards was beautiful and being able to return to a smart, comfortable house made the trip exceptional.
