Nature and surroundings

Our little village of Uxeau lies at the foot of Mont Dardon (H 506), one of the southernmost foothills of the Morvan. Far away from all the hustle and bustle, with no flight paths—just the silence and tranquility of nature. The cottage is situated on a hill at the edge of the forest. The garden (65 a), complete with a swimming pool, is located on a south-facing slope with a magnificent view and a cozy seating area beneath our hundred-year-old oak tree. At night, there’s no light pollution—just an impressive starry sky. The region is known for its green meadows bordered by endless hedgerows and forests. From the summit of Mont Dardon, you’ll enjoy a breathtaking view of the region. Hiking and forest trails start right from the house, as if in a vast park-like landscape. Beautiful art-rich towns nearby include Autun, Paray-le-Monial, Beaune, Chalon-sur-Saône, Charolles, and Cluny.

    A very well-equipped home with a lovely pool. Everything was perfect for our three children, too. A crib, changing table, baby bathtub, high chair—everything was ready and waiting. There were also plenty of games, books, and water toys... We had a wonderful time. The air conditioning in two of the three bedrooms was also great—it meant we could still sleep comfortably despite the heat! Another plus was the friendly communication with the owners; they responded to our questions almost immediately.

    We’ll definitely be back!!

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    This is the third time we've returned to this fantastic place, and once again we had an absolutely wonderful vacation! What a beautiful location. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet and the open space!

    The bathroom was very spacious, which was really nice.
    Since the living room was very dark—because the shutters were closed to keep out the heat—we didn’t use the living room at all.
    We spent our time either outside or in the kitchen once it got dark.
    The only downside to being outdoors was the flies, which we found particularly
    annoying while eating. We understand this is part of nature, but it does make
    the overall experience a little less enjoyable.

    Nature, peace & environment: 5 /5

    It was a wonderfully peaceful setting, with a beautiful view from the garden and pool.
    Lovely forest trails for walking. Plenty of privacy. Plenty of space.
    Many beautiful vistas across the hilly landscape.
    Cycling was enjoyable, especially along the rivers.

    A lovely house with a beautiful pool. Because of the heat wave during our stay, the pool was a godsend. The house stayed reasonably cool despite the high temperatures outside. It was so hot that we didn’t get around to doing any activities in the area. Fortunately, there was plenty of shade around the house. We had a wonderful time.

    We enjoyed the peace and quiet in and around the house and the beautiful view
