Nature house in Onlay
Burgundy-Franche-Comté, France
- 4 persons
- 2 bedrooms
- WiFi
- Pets allowed
Enjoy the house and its unobstructed location with views in every direction. In the garden, you can enjoy both sunny and shady spots. From the south-facing terrace, you can admire the beautiful sunset in the evening. It’s a charming old farmhouse equipped with all modern conveniences, featuring a spacious living room and a Godin wood stove. The house features an authentic beamed ceiling and is fully furnished with a dining table and a lounge area equipped with a television and radio. The house is situated halfway up a hill, offering panoramic views in all directions and allowing you to admire both the sunrise and the sunset. About 150 meters south of the house flows the Dragne (accessible on foot via the “Brion” exit in Onlay). This small river can be admired from the garden. Onlay is within walking distance of the house, while Moulins Engilbert—with amenities such as a supermarket, small shops, and outdoor cafes—is 7 kilometers away.
Nature and surroundings
Our old farmhouse is located 150 meters from Onlay, in the southwestern part of the beautiful “Parc Régional du Morvan” nature park, which is part of Burgundy. The Morvan covers 243,000 hectares and is characterized by a hilly landscape with forests, meadows, lakes, and picturesque villages and towns. It’s an area where time seems to have stood still and is ideal for activities such as hiking, biking (including over 300 km of mountain bike trails), and fishing. A 20-minute drive from the house is the Bibracte Archaeological Museum, located on Mont Beuvray. Here you can view ancient artifacts and excavations and enjoy endless walks. We regularly hear the hoopoe and the nightingale, among other birds, here.

A solid passing grade.
Dikke voldoende.
As soon as we got home, we immediately started to “miss” this fantastic house. A house equipped with every convenience. Amazing views all around. Friendly, curious neighbors… cows, calves, and a bull. Places to sit everywhere in this beautiful home—sun and shade, whatever you want. Communication with the hosts, Ellen and Marc, went wonderfully, even from a distance. They provided help and advice whenever needed. It was a shame that the restaurant in Onlay turned out to be temporarily closed. But just a short distance away is Moulin-Engilbert, a lovely little town where you can really relax. We came for the peace and quiet and nature, and that’s exactly what we experienced. We’d love to come back here.
Frans and Mathilde.Wij hadden na thuis thuiskomst meteen "heimwee" naar dit fantastische huis. Een huis voorzien van alle gemakken. Rondom geweldig uitzicht. Vriendelijke nieuwsgierige buren ... koeien, kalveren en stier. Zitplaatsen overal in de mooie thuis, zon en schaduw, wat je wil. De communicatie op afstand met de verhuurders Ellen en Marc verliep fantastisch. Gaven hulp en advies daar waar nodig. Jammer dat het restaurant in Onlay tijdelijk gesloten bleek. Maar op korte afstand is Moulin-Engilbert, een mooi plaatsje waar je goed kunt vertoeven. We kwamen voor de rust en natuur en dat hebben we ervaren. Hier komen we graag terug.

A lovely, spacious house on a large lot. Practically everything you need is provided, both inside and outside the house.
fijn ruim huis op een groot perceel. practisch alles is aanwezig zowel in als buiten het huis.
The house is located on a main road, so you’ll regularly hear cars passing by between 7:00–9:00 a.m. and 4:00–5:00 p.m. However, since the house is situated on higher ground and quite a distance from the road, this certainly isn’t a nuisance.
The house is situated on a hill, offering beautiful views; it isn’t completely enclosed, so you also get a nice breeze. There’s plenty of space—spots in and out of the sun, with or without a breeze.het huis ligt aan een doorgaande weg waardoor je tussen 7.00-9.00 en 16.00-17.00 regelmatig auto's langs hoort komen. Omdat het huis hoger ligt en een heel eind van de weg geeft dit zeker geen overlast.
Het huis ligt op een heuvel waardoor je prachtig uitzicht hebt, het licht niet helemaal ingebouwd waardoor je ook een lekker windje hebt. Er is volop ruimte ; plekjes in en uit de zon, met of zonder windje.This text is automatically translated. -

A very nice house, wonderfully cool in warm weather, and the bed is very comfortable. It feels just like home when you stay there. Beautiful surroundings, both right around the house and throughout the rest of the Morvan.
Heel fijn huis, heerlijk koel bij warm weer, het bed ligt heel goed. Het is net alsof je er woont als je er verblijft. Prachtige omgeving, zowel direct om het huis als de rest van de Morvan.
