A charming country farmhouse set in a hamlet amongst the beautiful Langres countryside in South Champagne, a few kilometres from the border of Burgundy. This is our country retreat giving access to the gastronomy & history of 3 regions of France but providing a peaceful place to relax away from the hustle & bustle of everyday life. The house is full of character with many original features coupled with modern comforts and has been renovated to reflect the authentic French charm and style of the property.
You are greeted with a large fully equipped farmhouse kitchen & separate double salon with woodburning fire plus 3 individually designed bedrooms each with its own private bathroom. Sitting in a wooded valley with uninterrupted views from every window - enjoy the magnificent surroundings in this lovely spot.
This was a good property in which to holiday. It was comfortable, spacious, well-equipped, and an excellent base from which to explore the lovely Haute Marne area, and even beyond down to Mulhouse and Basel in Switzerland. The hosts provided a most useful introduction sheet.The reason we haven't given the property a 5-star rating is because its Vrbo description noted there was a garden. This is inaccurate - there is no garden beyond a tiny area for a table and chairs by the front door. What appears to be a garden is a grassed public access street running between the property and farm fields. Not very busy mind you, but it was public and was used by a local farmer in his car and a few other people on foot.
Huge farmhouse with a bathroom for each of the three of us. Really quiet at the end of a tiny hamlet. We all said our beds were the most comfortable we've ever slept in whilst away from home. We'll miss watching the cows moving around from field to field. We found that very therapeutic! We're big nature fans, so we were very happy to see a nice selection of butterflies and other insects and birds, including a Hoopoe and lots of Red Kites amongst others. The little patio area was nice and cosy, and we enjoyed eating and drinking around the table there. We would definitely consider staying here again.
Authentiek huis in zeer groene en rustige omgeving
Op zich prima, maar we vonden de omgeving te saai. Weinig te doen in de directe omgeving. Dijon is een prachtige stad, Langres stelt weinig voor. Het huis en de meubels zijn oud en verwacht geen luxe. Wel sfeervol en heerlijk rustig en groen. Wel schoon. En goede omgeving om te racefietsen
ZunĂ€chst schien alles nett. Leider sind nahezu alle sitzmöbel total durchgesessen und gehören auf den SperrmĂŒll. Das GrundstĂŒck ist nicht umzĂ€unt oder privat und so hatten wir permanent jemanden im Garten. In 6 Tagen u.a. 4x den GĂ€rtner. Eine versprochene RĂŒckerstattung kam now
My family spent Christmas holiday at the farmhouse. The location and farmhouse was nothing short of brilliant. Charming, well appointed, plenty of space, wonderful neighbors. Iâm definitely planning my next stay.
Your hosts are very responsive so it made the experience even more relaxing.
We spent 3 weeks at this wonderful place in a quiet, green landscape of grass, cows, berries, ways to be found, the milky way visible for it is really dark at night...Dijon is near, as is Beaune not far. However, just staying there was really good as well as exploring the sourrounding by bikes. Perfect place!
We had a wonderful time in the beautifully restored house of Gavin and Shelley. It is a lovely and cosy house, with wonderful views. We very much enjoyed our stay!
Wir hatten eine tolle Woche im Juli in diesem wunderschönen Haus. Das Haus liegt sehr ruhig an einer kleinen Ortschaft in direkter NĂ€he zu einem kleinen ehemaligen Jagdsitz. Die Nachbarin war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Haus entspricht voll und ganz dem Inserat und unseren Erwartungen. Die Inneneinrichtung war sauber und stilvoll. Die Besitzer hatten alle Besonderheiten des sehr alten Hause schriftlich kommentiert und erklĂ€rt, so dass auch antike Möbel bzw. Fenster und TĂŒren sehr gut zu handhaben waren. Die KĂŒche war vollwertig ausgestattet, so dass das Kochen auch viel SpaĂ machte. Die Badezimmer waren sehr sauber und sehr liebevoll eingerichtet und Toilettenpapier, Seife und Duschgel standen ĂŒberall bereit.. Die Betten waren sehr frisch und sauber bezogen. Es fehlte uns an nichts!!! Wir genossen die Stille der Umgebung, beobacheten beim Essen die Vögel auf dem gegenĂŒberliegendem Feld und machten AusflĂŒge in die Region (Dijon, Langres, Quelle der Vingeanne, Lac de Vingeanne, etc.). Wir haben uns sehr gut erholt und kommen gerne noch einmal wieder!
We came back for our autumn break after staying here before, as had such fond memories of this tastefully decorated and comfortable farm house. We were delighted to find that after three years this is still the perfect autumn holiday home: beautiful surroundings, safe for the kids to roam around and close to shops/bakery and beautiful Langres.
My two sons (13 & 16) and I spent a wonderful holiday week in the great house with an idyllic garden. On the one hand we enjoyed being at home, cooking, playing games, reading, painting and just relaxing. On the other hand, it was fun to explore the surroundings with small towns, restaurants, castles, lakes and mills. We felt very, very comfortable here in the tastefully furnished house and the beautiful rural surroundings. Thank you very much Gavin and Shelley
Mooi, oud appartement vol karakter in rustige en groene omgeving
Super fijn verblijf gehad. Fijn dat alle drie de slaapkamers een eigen badkamer heeft en beneden een ruime eetkeuken en aparte woonkamer is. Was schoon en netjes. Super goed contact met de eigenaren en fijn dat ze twee babybedjes hebben kunnen regelen zodat we deze niet zelf mee hoefden te nemen. Buiten het appartement kun je direct de natuur in stappen en niet te vergeten de weinige maar lekkere wijnen die bij de boer te koop zijn. Vergeet alleen niet zelf handdoeken en wat wc papier mee te nemen
Fantastisch huis! Grote ruimtes, alles is aanwezig. Echt super! Het uitzicht is waanzinnig mooi. En de rust⊠samen met onze drukke kinderen brengt het helemaal in balans ;)
Prachtig oude boerderij in stijl ingericht en voorzien van alle dagelijkse benodigdheden. Ruime (slaap)kamers met eigen badkamer en een openhaard in de woonkamer.
