17th Century Farmhouse Nestled in a Hamlet in a National Park, Burgundy

This restored 17th Century Farmhouse features the chestnut beamed ceiling 'a la Francaise', stone walls, low fired floor tiles and antique furniture from the period. Situated in a small hamlet in the

regional Park , Le Morvan, the house is very tranquil with a spectacular view of Autun & the vineyards of Burgundy far below the mountain top where it sits. The house is in a tiny hamlet on a one lane road that leads you through a forest to a river & waterfall with some terrific walks right from the House.

The property comprises:

 2 bedrooms; one with 2 beds and each with an armoire and closet. The living room has another bed. A fully equipped American style kitchen with microwave, coffee maker, dishwasher, oven, pantry, fridge/freezer, hob, gas stove, toaster and pantry items. There is a bathroom & separate W.C. as well as a laundry room. The house has a 2 level private garden with fruit trees and garden furniture; the upper garden is in the sun, the lower in the shade, all surrounded by hedges for privacy and a garden wall to keep toddlers from wandering away.
 

The National Park is so pristine that it has unusual wildlife not found elsewhere in Europe. It is a popular area for outdoor sports in France, a destination for hiking, biking, horse-back riding, fishing, swimming, rock climbing and more!

The house is 345 Km from Paris and it is a short drive from the airport (3- 1/2 hours). It can also be reached easily by flying to Geneva (a 3 hour drive), Lyon (a 2 hour drive), or Nice. The climate is temperate since it is on the Mediterranean corridor.

Burgundy is known for its excellent wines & gourmet foods & restaurants. Autun is a walled city rich in Roman & Gallic history with magnificent ruins and a Roman Theatre still in use today! The outdoor markets are a treat, the shopping elegant and comparatively inexpensive, with lots of delightful small villages & vineyards to visit. The house is 1 km from the closest restaurant, 2km from the closest village & 8 km from the super market for shopping for provisions.

The property is wheelchair friendly.
