A unique vacation rental for cycling, hiking, and nature enthusiasts. We have transformed this old farmhouse—which had been uninhabited for over 40 years—into a pleasant place to stay. We’ve restored the old, characteristic features from the past—such as the unique stone floor and the beamed ceiling—and complemented them with a fully equipped kitchenette, a bedroom with a box-spring bed, and a bathroom with a walk-in shower, sink, and a separate toilet. As the icing on the cake, you’ll find cycling-themed details throughout the house, making it a truly unique cycling retreat. But even without a bike, you’re guaranteed a pleasant stay here! Want to enjoy it even more? Reserve our outdoor wellness area for private use for an evening, complete with a wood-fired hot tub and sauna. It’s located in a secluded spot on the adjacent property, overlooking a private lake and the hills. Enjoy an evening in the wellness area (5:00 PM – 10:30 PM) for €125. Please note: not always available, so contact us in advance to check availability.
Nature and surroundings
This nature house is located in the southeastern part of the Morvan Regional Nature Park. The gîte is in a quiet spot on our private road, with a view of the hills. It’s a wonderful place to get away from it all. The Morvan is one of those unspoiled areas where you can fully enjoy nature and hardly ever run into other cyclists or hikers. If you’re lucky, you might spot wild boars, deer, and foxes. And where it gets truly dark in the evening, and thanks to the absence of light pollution, you can spend hours enjoying the often magical starry sky. The Morvan Nature Park offers a diverse landscape. It features many dense deciduous and coniferous forests, meadows, and hedgerows, interspersed with heathlands, rocky hills, lakes, ponds, and numerous streams and rivers.

Neat, clean, functional, and with a wonderful bed. The only real area for improvement would have been a full-featured combination oven. The rolls we wanted to bake weren’t great. It turned out to be just a kind of grill-microwave combo.
Netjes, schoon, functioneel en voor een heerlijk bed. Als enig echt verbeterpunt had ik graag een volwaardige combi oven gezien. De broodjes die we wouden afbakken waren niet geweldig. Het bleek slechts een soort gril magnetron te zijn.
At first, it seemed as though the area was particularly barren and dry. But the hilly landscape and the serene tranquility that prevailed there felt very pleasant. As we saw more and more of the Morvan during our stay, our appreciation for it grew steadily.
In eerste instantie was de indruk dat het vooral erg dor en droog in de omgeving. Maar het heuvelachtige landschap en de serene rust die er heerst voelde heel fijn. Naarmate we tijdens het verblijf meer en meer van De Morvan gezien hadden, werd de waardering steeds groter

Definitely worth an 8!
Zeker een 8 waard!
A lovely little cottage. Clean, tidy, and comfortable. Jorinde and Paul are very hospitable people who are happy to tell you about all the wonderful things the area has to offer. We had a wonderful time here.
Een heerlijk huisje. Schoon, netjes en comfortabel. Jorinde en Paul zijn hele gastvrije mensen die je graag vertellen over al het moois dat de omgeving te bieden heeft. Wij hebben het heel fijn gehad hier.

As for the interior, when the weather is bad and we’re spending more time inside, it would be nice if there were a more comfortable chair in addition to the two-person bench.
Qua interieur zal het bij mindere weersomstandigheden met meer verblijf binnen fijn zijn als er naast het tweepersoonbankje nog een comfortabeler stoel aanwezig zou zijn.
Jorinde and Paul have renovated part of their home and converted it into accommodations for two people. The interior design features smart and practical choices, such as a comfortable double bed, a well-functioning shower room, and a restroom—where the lack of space for a door has been cleverly solved with a sliding door on a track— a well-equipped small kitchen with modern amenities such as a refrigerator, a small microwave oven, an exhaust hood with lighting, and an electric stovetop—though unfortunately the instruction manual was missing, and we eventually figured out how to use it on our own. It was very hot during our stay, but in the afternoon, the outdoor seating area under the attic roof and the opportunity to eat outside at the table were very pleasant.
Communication with the owners was easy and friendly. The nearby lakes (Lac des Settons and Lac Paniciaire) were well worth a visit!Jorinde en Paul hebben een deel van hun onderkomen gerenoveerd en geschikt gemaakt als verblijf voor twee personen. De inrichting wordt gekenmerkt door slimme en praktische keuzes, zoals een prettig tweepersoons bed, een goedwerkende doucheruimte, een toiletruimte, waarbij het gebrek aan ruimte voor een deur slim is opgelost met een deur op een schuifrail, een goed geoutilleerde kleine keuken met moderne voorzieningen als koelkast, magnetronoventje, afzuigkap met verlichting en een elektrische kookplaat, waarvan helaas de gebruiksaanwijzing gemist werd en we zelf uiteindelijk er achter kwamen hoe deze te gebruiken. Het was tijdens ons verblijf erg warm, maar in de namiddag was de buitenzithoek onder het zolderdak en de gelegenheid aan tafel buiten te eten erg prettig.
Het contact met de eigenaren verliep makkelijk en vriendelijk. De in de omgeving aanwezige meren (Lac des Settons en Lac Paniciaire) waren een bezoek meer dan waard!This text is automatically translated.
