In the northwest of Morvan Nature Park lies the quintessentially French village of Mhère. This nature house is the last house in the village; it used to be the post office. The landlord has been the proud owner of this charming property since 2010. Since then, it has undergone a complete transformation! The heart of the house is the large, cozy kitchen-diner. The sun shines in here early in the morning. The tall windows offer a beautiful view of the hills. In the evening, it’s a great place to relax in the “salon,” which has a cozy atmosphere thanks to its special decor. The two wood stoves keep the kitchen and salon warm. On warm summer evenings, you can sit on the terrace, enjoying the starry sky and the sounds of crickets, frogs, and owls. But the bench in front of the house is also a favorite evening spot! The warmth of the sun still lingers in the walls, making it a wonderful place to enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. As dusk falls, bats flutter around the lamppost. Here, you’re truly in the heart of nature—the most beautiful hikes start right at your front door! The house is set up for small children. The spacious garden (1,500 m²) transitions halfway into more rugged terrain, where you can build huts and light a campfire at the fire pit.

Nature and surroundings

Burgundy is one of the most beautiful and diverse regions in France. The ultimate in peace and space can be found in the Le Morvan Regional Nature Park, a protected nature reserve covering more than 1,700 km². The village of Mhère is situated in a rural setting within this protected landscape—a beautiful, hilly, and wooded area with streams, lakes, and castles. This region has much to offer and serves as an excellent base for an active or more leisurely vacation in an authentic corner of France. The many country roads and hiking trails provide an ideal setting for cycling and hiking excursions, ranging from a pleasant stroll to challenging “grandes randonnées.” And all of this right from your doorstep! Birdwatchers will also be in their element. From the bedroom window, you have a view of La Chapelle Banquet. There’s a beautiful hike from the house to this little chapel, where you’ll be rewarded with a panoramic view! The lakes of the Morvan offer water sports and natural beauty—a unique combination! The nearest and quietest lake, Lac de Pannecière, is a 15-minute drive away. The larger Lac des Settons is about a 30-minute drive away. This is where you’ll find the most water sports options.

    Nice place. The house does need refurbishing.Too bad there is no direct connection between the kitchen or living room with the garden.But inside very cozy.

    Truly a nature house. That's all we can say about it. Because that describes it. No TV, a gas stove, and of course in the middle of nature!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Super nice contact with the lovely landlady! During our stay a number of things went differently than planned, but she has thought well with us and helped where she could. The stay would have been possible without contact, but we appreciated the approachable and non-committal contact! Also a beautiful cottage with a beautiful garden! Really to dream away. All day long you have sunshine in the garden. Really a gem, this house! Really enjoyed it immensely in the old post office. There was also a folder with tips for trips in the area, really nice! For sociability people there are nice contacts in the village and for nature lovers there is also more than enough! In short, an absolute must for everyone!

    Het huis is een (gedeeltelijk) verbouwd postkantoor dat qua inrichting en voorzieningen de sfeer van vroeger ademt. Vooral mensen die geen eisen hebben m.b.t moderne apparatuur (audio/video, wifi) zullen het huis waarderen. De inrichting is voor een groot deel afkomstig van lokale brocantes, die het huis een karakteristieke sfeer geven. De benedenverdieping is (nog?) niet voor verblijf ontwikkeld (wel opslag van spullen). Het huis heeft een grote tuin die mooi uitzicht biedt op het omringende landschap. De toegang tot de woonverdieping is aan de weg, de toegang tot de tuin is via een trap, die minder geschikt is voor minder mobiele/oudere mensen. Die kunnen eventueel om het huis heen naar beneden lopen. De verdieping met de slaapkamers is ook via een trap bereikbaar, hetgeen het huis wellicht ook minder geschikt maakt voor minder mobiele mensen, aangezien de (overigens prima) badkamer zich op de lagere verdieping bevindt. Er is een gezellig lokaal café waar je twee keer in de week brood kan bestellen, en waar je tegen zeer bescheiden prijzen goed kan eten. Voorzieningen als winkels en restaurants bevinden zich op een afstand van ongeveer een kwartier per auto (bijv. Lormes). Binnen een uur rijden zijn er diverse zeer aantrekkelijke stadjes (Avallon, Vézelay, Corbigny, Autun).

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    Huis ligt in een gehuchtje met akkerland en bos erom heen, met goede wandelmogelijkheden. De ligging in het regionale Morvan-park betekent dat de natuur in de omgeving bijna niet is aangetast door stedelijke ontwikkelingen.
