Pets not allowed
There’s a lovely apartment available for you in the old school. It has all the comforts you need, without any frills. Nature is the biggest attraction here in the Morvan. You can walk or mountain bike right into the forest from the school. Or you can pull out a garden chair, visit a small town, or drive to a museum. As a guest of our village, you’re welcome to use the small swimming pool in Villapourcon (5 km away) for free. Upstairs in the sturdy school building, we have our own space. We’ll welcome you personally and show you around; after that, you’ll have complete peace and privacy. On the ground floor, there are two apartments. One of them—the one with the front door on the right in the photo—is ready to accommodate two people. It’s very quiet in and around the school, and at night it’s incredibly dark (bring your telescope?). So it’s also an excellent place to get away for a week and finish your project plan, thesis, or book undisturbed. We look forward to your visit!
Nature and surroundings
The Morvan Regional Park is a green oasis. Our little village, Le Puits, is a hamlet with about 20 houses. Our immediate neighbors are two horses and a pasture with cows. The houses are a few hundred meters apart. The southern part of the Morvan is greener and higher than the north. Whether you’re hiking, biking, or driving, you’ll be enchanted time and again by the overwhelmingly beautiful vistas and views. In the spring and summer, nature is a beautiful patchwork of various shades of green, with hedgerows and overhanging wildflowers. In the fall, your path leads past stunning autumn colors and across a carpet of fruits and nuts. Shops and cafés are just a 15-minute drive away. We highly recommend Bibracte, the Celtic settlement that is now a museum and research institute (7 km from us). Some charming villages include Luzy, Larochemillay, Moulin-Engilbert, Château-Chinon, and Glux-en-Glenne. The larger cities nearby are Autun, Nevers, and Dijon.

Don't hesitate, go! Response from host: Thank you Femke, you make me blush! Good to hear you had such a good time. And many thanks for keeping it neat (and cozy)!
Niet twijfelen, gaan!
Reactie van verhuurder:
Dank je wel Femke, je laat me blozen! Goed te horen dat jullie het zo goed naar je zin hebben gehad. En veel dank voor het netjes (en gezellig) bewonen van de school!What a nice place to stay. Peace, space, nature, nicely decorated, good kitchen, fantastic views and a very warm hostess Heleen. Super reception with treats, homemade jam and tips about the area. There is plenty to discover villages, walks, flea markets and markets. And nature, nature and nature. Birds in front and behind the house and a beautiful view next to the house. Even when it's raining or foggy. We enjoyed it enormously. Thanks to Heleen.
Wat een fijne plek om te verblijven. Rust, ruimte, natuur, fijn ingericht, goede keuken, fantastisch uitzicht en een zeer hartelijke gastvrouw Heleen. Superontvangst met lekkernijen, zelfgemaakte jam en tips over de omgeving. Er valt genoeg te ontdekken aan dorpen, wandeltochten, brocantes en markten. En verder natuur, natuur en natuur. Vogeltjes voor en achter het huis en een mooi uitzicht naast het huis. Ook als het regent of mistig is. We hebben enorm genoten. Met dank aan Heleen.

The only thing we missed was wifi. But if you're looking for peace and quiet, that's nice too sometimes.... Response landlord: Thank you Joop! Glad you enjoyed it so (sports-wise). That's exactly what we do it for!
Het enige dat wij misten was wifi. Maar als je rust zoekt, is dat ook wel eens lekker….
Reactie verhuurder:
Dank je wel Joop! Fijn dat jullie zo (sportief) hebben genoten. Dat is precies waar we het voor doen!We were wonderfully received by Heleen and Rob in their beautiful, cozy former school building. We immediately felt at home. Heleen had snacks ready and in the refrigerator was a bottle of rose. In the kitchen everything was ready for the first day. In short, very attentive and friendly. The apartment is great, complete, clean and really well equipped. We had a fantastic stay there. Heleen and Rob kept a low profile, but were always available with advice if we wanted to know anything. This is really a top stay for those seeking peace and quiet. In the vicinity are plenty of hiking trails through the (sometimes tough) hills of the Morvan.
Wij zijn geweldig ontvangen door Heleen en Rob in hun prachtige, sfeervolle voormalige schoolgebouw. We voelden ons er meteen thuis. Heleen had snacks klaargezet en in de koelkast stond een fles rose. In de keuken stond van alles klaar voor de eerste dag. Kortom, heel attent en vriendelijk. Het appartement is geweldig, compleet, netjes en echt van alle gemakken voorzien. We hebben er een fantastisch verblijf gehad. Heleen en Rob hielden zich op de achtergrond, maar waren altijd met raad en daad beschikbaar als we iets wilden weten. Dit is echt een topverblijf voor rustzoekers. In de omgeving zijn volop wandelpaden door de (soms pittige) heuvels van de Morvan.
