PREVIOUS GUESTS WROTE.....: For Jane & myself this is our second visit to Tivauche. We beleive it is a most beautiful gite in one of the most lovely areas of France. Jane & Alec, California. - We could not have asked for a more beautiful place to stay! All of our day trips have been great - Vezelay was our favourite, but the best part of our trip has been coming 'home' to this amazing gite, sitting outside with a glass of wine, enjoying the beautiful view. Scott & Christine, Georgia. - One of our best holidays ever. We could easily have stayed longer; there is so much to see. Andrew & Susanne, Surrey. - We have rented many gites across France, this being our first visit to Burgundy. Never have we experienced this excellent recipe of luxury, cleanliness and warmth to such an extent. Congratulations to you both. We hope to see you again. Heather & Peter, Devon.

We, a family of four, stayed at the gite for a week.
It has been a lovely week.
To start with the Bill and Jenny, who made us feel more than welcome and at home.
The cottage, well appointed, larger than it shows in the pictures, good kitchen, enormous fireplace, the surroundings, lovely sleepy medieval hamlets, Tivauche le Haut itself, and finally the weather, all lovely!
Because is had been so cold there were no trees in bloom, but very slowly you saw spring starting.
The whole Tivauche experience was very relaxing, and we can certainly recommend the house.
One small remark, the downstairs bed is 140 so excellent for the young:-).
Upstairs 160 in a very large, and nice bedroom.
And a view not only from the bedroom window, but also from under the shower!
Hope to be back soon.

Now that's a holiday home

Now that's a holiday home

This is a holiday home that wasn't just comfortable. It's a home I would be happy to live in, it's that good. It may be the style, the facilities or just the fabulous view - more likely a combination of all three. The neighbours (and owners) are as helpful and friendly as one could hope for too.

The photos on the website particularly attracted us but to be quite honest, they don't do it justice.

The area is great too. We only spent a week there and didn't get to see everything we could/should have done. There are some great local places and fabulous towns to visit well within an hour's drive (and we didn't even get to Dijon!).

We're a family that likes to go somewhere new every year and never go back to the same place twice. If anywhere was going to make us break that rule, this would be it. If you love amusement arcades, clubs and a bustling night-life then DON'T come here!! If you need a relaxing holiday, then this is the place for you.

I can't recommend this highly enough. Many thanks, Mike, Jeanette, Charlie (16) & Catherine (10)

A Gem in Burgundy

5 of 5
Submitted: May 13, 2012 Stayed: April 2012
We rented this beautiful French farmhouse in early April. It was accurately described and more. The property was situated on a hill which gave it a commanding view and a perfect setting. The area was very tranquil and just right for beautiful country walks. The interior of the house was very well maintained and furnished to a high standard which made everything extremely comfortable. Our favorite thing was experiencing all the wonderful Burgundian adventures and then returning to our cozy fire and a glass of red wine. The house is centrally located and convenient to Beaune, Vezalay, Abbye de Fontenay and Chateneuf. The owners were fabulous right from the start. They were easy to work with and most accommodating. Bill set up a wonderful bike trip along the canal. It was one of the highlights of our trip. We travel frequently in Europe and have very high expectations, We have to say that this special property fulfilled all our dreams.
