Our nature house is located just outside the small fortified town of Chatillon sur Saone in the valley of the river Apance which flows into the Saone there. In our little street outside the actual village there are 4 houses. The nature house is fully furnished with a well-equipped kitchen, 1 large bedroom with double bed + double sofa bed, loft with double sofa bed located on the covered roof terrace, a lounge with fireplace. The 1000 m² plot slopes up to the village street and has a beautifully landscaped garden with numerous seating areas. The higher you get, the more spectacular the view. Furthermore: lots of peace and quiet. The village is a starting point for walks and bike rides, and there is an information point/shelter for hikers. The village is proud of its history. You will find a good restaurant, tea house, gallery, some gift stores and a museum about the history of the village and the region. Many buildings from the 17th century have been restored and included in the Unesco World Heritage List.

Nature and surroundings

Nature is spacious and expansive. In the forests there is a varied flora and fauna. Wild boars, badgers, foxes, deer.... It all walks around and with a little luck and if you behave a little modestly you will sometimes see them too. The bird population is colorful and numerous. It is the prelude to the High Vosges Mountains. The area is a paradise for hikers and cyclists. The walks lead you through forests, vast fields, small villages and the hilly landscape. They are well marked from the village. The inhabitants of the village are friendly and helpful, as long as you behave with respect for nature and village life. You can swim in the Apance or in Lac de Morimond. Nice towns nearby: Chaumont, Langres, Troyes, Plombiers les Bains. The old Roman bathing culture is omnipresent in the region. 15 kilometers away is Bourbonne les Bains, a town with all amenities. In the village there is a vide grenier every year, and twice a year a Fête Renaissance.

    A beautiful, playfully remodeled and tastefully decorated house equipped with all amenities. A beautiful terraced garden with a multitude of plants and flowers, laid out against the slope behind the house. A very helpful, alert and easily accessible landlord. Point to note for people like us who appreciate visiting the toilet at night, as you sleep upstairs and the toilet is downstairs the spiral staircase can be a challenge at night.

    A lovely quiet area with many opportunities for hiking, visiting towns or just relaxing at the cottage.

    Nice and spacious house with a large bedroom. All the amenities are there and it is more than fully furnished. The bathroom is on the cramped side and the stairs to the upper floor require a steady stride. The strongest point of the house is the wonderful garden. Next to the house you have a comfortable sitting area on a lawn and behind the house the garden is terraced against a rock wall allowing you to sit at different levels. Our favorite spot was a rocking bench overlooking the valley. Fons is a good host with whom contact is pleasant and easy.

    Delightful. What peace and quiet. From the beautifully landscaped garden you have a magnificent view over the valley through which flows a small river. And in the evening you can enjoy the beautiful starry sky.

    The contact with the owners was pleasant. I would definitely recommend this cottage if you love peace and nature around you. We were with a family with two children, ages seven and nine, and they too had a great time. There is no cable TV, but there is good wifi, and a TV with DVD player. Even doing the dishes ourselves was not a problem, because hey it's vacation. And our children even like washing dishes, because they don't know that from our daily life at home. Lovely that you can also do your laundry before leaving. The sofa bed was fine for our kids, with the mosquito net around it also fly free. No problems with flies and wasps.

    The cottage is beautifully situated in a very quiet rural setting. Plenty of privacy around the house and yet the presence of nice neighbors elsewhere down the street. A small village within walking distance where we had a nice dinner. Supermarkets are nearby at a 10-15 minute drive. From the cottage you can walk to the river and cool off there. A little further drive was in Selles a wider river where the children could build dams and play in the current.The cottage is fully equipped, especially the covered outdoor terrace is great to stay on hot summer days. The smell of lavender everywhere in the large garden, on the terrace and in the house is soothing.
