Welcome to the ultimate nature house in Chaumard. It’s located in Burgundy, a 700-km drive from Utrecht. The house is situated in the beautiful Morvan nature reserve. The nature house is a detached home offering plenty of privacy and a large fenced-in garden. It’s situated on a hill with stunning views. It features a large south-facing terrace. You’ll enjoy a panoramic view of the hills and valleys. Here, you’ll hear only the birds, and if you listen closely, the babbling brooks flowing toward “Lac de Pannecière.” The cottage features: - Living room with open kitchen (induction cooktop/dishwasher) - Bathroom with shower. - Separate toilet on the ground floor. - Two bedrooms, located on the first floor. - Porch under the balcony with a barbecue. - Ample parking. - Spacious, fully fenced yard. - Free Wi-Fi via fiber-optic connection. You can set out on beautiful hiking, biking, and mountain biking trips right from the house. The natural surroundings are breathtaking, with all the beautiful forests.

Nature and surroundings

With its babbling brooks, meandering streams, and overgrown paths, you’d think you were in a scene from *The Lord of the Rings*. The hilly, rugged landscape is covered with coniferous and deciduous forests. It smells of brush, wet leaves, and kindling. There are many lakes in the Morvan, such as Lac de Pannecière and Lac des Settons. You can sunbathe, fish, sail, water-ski, and canoe there. Cycling or hiking around both lakes is a fun challenge. The rafting and kayaking are fantastic. TIP: Want to cycle on flat terrain? Head to the beautiful Canal du Nivernais. Autun is a Roman city over 2,000 years old with a magnificent cathedral. The city offers shops, restaurants, and impressive architecture. Other beautiful towns include Avallon, the wine town of Beaune, the porcelain town of Nevers, and Vézelay, home to the remains of Mary Magdalene. We highly recommend the Bribracte Museum, which covers everything about the region during Roman times, or the visitor center in Brisson.

General rating: 8 /10

After some initial difficulties (the place was only superficially clean and the shower was clogged), we had a great vacation.

The owners were helpful and took care of the issues right away.

The fence is scheduled to be repaired after our stay. Renovation work is also needed (some electrical outlets are loose, wallpaper is peeling, etc.).

Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

A beautiful, peaceful location. You can watch lots of birds. One evening, we even saw a badger.

You can go hiking right from the house, or there are trails just a short drive away.

General rating: 7 /10

It does need a bit of touch-up work. (loose plugs, wallpaper coming loose) The cottage had also been cleaned only very superficially—there were a few things we had to clean again ourselves. But all in all, it’s a lovely cottage with a certain charm.

Nature, peace & environment: 4 /5

A uniquely situated, quiet cottage with a stunning view and beautiful surroundings.

General rating: 9 /10

A cozy little house with a lovely balcony right off the living room, from which you can step right into the garden.

Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

Stunning views and so much peace and greenery. It gets dark enough there to see a beautiful starry sky and fireflies!
A lovely fenced-in yard for the dog.
The lake (Lac de Pannecière) was beautiful and peaceful. Great for swimming.
A truly quiet place. Just birds and crickets.
