Photos and Description of the Cote d'Or vacation house rental 3 comfortable Gites, sleeping 4, 6, 8 or a total of 18

Situated in the small village of Braux these recently renovated Burgundian houses lends their names to all the stone work in and around the property. Flagstone floors, vaulted arches, stone fireplaces, kitchen sinks and work surfaces and stone shower trays add to the charm of these 19th century houses. There is a newly installed swimming pool with a good range of inflatable toys, 8m x 4m, with walk-in steps at the shallow end, ideal for young children and learners. The pool, barbeque and eating areas can be flood lit in the evenings. These well equipped houses can be rented as a whole or as seperate units so if you would like to make up a large group and rent all 3 this is possible. During our off peak season we are also organising themed weekend breaks. We have decided to make use of the old traditional bread oven, that was built in 1850 approx., to make an unforgetable weekend experience, read on for more information.....

The houses are located in a very beautiful area; Dijon for shopping and site seeing is just 40 minutes away and all the wonderful well known wine villages of Burgundy are about the same. Chablis is to the north and it takes about 45 minutes to get there. Don't forget to visit Irancy and St Bris whilst you're there, they have great wines and at a slightly cheaper price. The medieval town of Semur en Auxois is just 10kms away, wander along the cobbled streets, take a walk around the ramparts and down to the river Armançon, have a coffee on a 'terrace' and choose from the numerous restaurants where you will eat. You can find everything you need here, banks, supermarkets, garages, post office, newsagents and a small Sunday morning market which is worth a visit. Fontenay Abbey, the chateau at Bussy Rabutin and Chateauneuf, the basilica at Vezelay and Dijon are just a few of the historic sites to visit.

Notes: There is a childs swing and slide in the garden. The swimming pool has a very safe hard cover on it, which you can see in the photos. It solar heats the water so that the season for the pool is much longer than using a traditional bubble cover. It can be taken off the pool by sliding along rails, it's very light and easy to use. It is also the safest form of protection for the pool, it is kept locked at all times when not in use. It also has the advantage that one can swim under the cover if the weather is a bit chilly or windy, there is a side door that accesses the pool and 2 steps down into the shallow end. The house has a security gate for use if you have small children. The house has been fitted with security smoke alarms.

Further details for this vacation house rental in Cote d'Or, France

There is a bread van that passes 3 mornings a week through the village selling fresh baguettes and croissants, a cheese van that passes on a Wednesday evening and an 'epicerie' van once a week. The house is stocked with information leaflets for all the local sites and activities and we have also included our recommendations for places to eat. There are fabulous walks around the numerous lakes and in the Morvan forest, cycling along the towpath of the Burgundy canal, which meanders through the village, golf courses at the Chateau de Chailly, horse riding near Semur en Auxois and wind surfing and peddeloes at Lac du Pont, 5 minutes away.

.

During our off peak season we are also organising themed weekend breaks. We have decided to make use of the old traditional bread oven. We will be making and cooking pizzas, different breads and brioches, tasting local wines and cheeses and even cooking a suckling pig in the oven. You will also have the time to visit our local market in the medieval town of Semur en Auxois, Dijon or Beaune. If you would like to prolong your break why not stay a couple of extra nights and really visit this lovely area. You can come along and join a group or make up your own group. It's a great opportunity to celebrate a birthday or wedding anniversary, have a « girls weekend »  or come with family and get away from it all. Whatever your choice we can organise the rest..... If you are interested in our weekend break please call or e-mail for the prices and full details of the stay. Prices are £140 per person for the weekend. Our special weekends normally run from Friday afternoon 4pm to Sunday 5pm

Other Activities: Wine tasting

Beautiful stonework, fabulous pool, tranquil spot

NicoPico Seattle, USA
Review Submitted: July 2, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We spent 6 days with our 2 and 3 year old boys in the larger house (because the others were unavailable). The place is beautiful, with a stone sink that must be seen to be believed. Pizza night was a hoot, and our boys generally played lots with the owners kids who live around the corner. Fabulous views, nice garden, several nice spots to sit or lunch or what not. The houses are old but fully renovated with unbelievable amounts of beautiful stonework throughout (sinks, stairs, walls, around the pool, etc). This helps them stay very cool on hot days. Renting two or three houses would make a fabulous spot for a large group.
