Anne-Marie & Heinz welcome you to a charming 1850 castle steeped in history nestled "on a balcony", on a west-facing hillside, on the wooded foothills of the South Burgundy massif & the vast Cluny national forest (a wild area partly protected as a "Natura 2000 Zone", dotted with hiking & mountain biking trails in the heart of nature & panoramic viewpoints). Pleasant green setting on the edge of meadows, in the hollow of a residential area overlooking the bucolic Grosne valley on the first heights of the famous abbey city with the prestigious "European Heritage" label (all amenities on site). In the countryside, a stone's throw from the monastic center with its inestimable historical heritage, the spiritual heart of medieval Europe. Spacious, very comfortable gîte. Noble dimensions & volumes. The exotic atmosphere of a "bourgeois" residence blends a warm, cozy, and comfortable country feel with the elegant and refined ambiance of the place. Enormous charm and character. Exceptional, well-kept 2-hectare property with century-old trees (American red oak, Atlas cedar, sycamore maple, etc.) offering rare leisure and relaxation facilities: shaded dining area, above-ground swimming pool (7x4m), tennis court with basketball hoop, real soccer field with goal posts, natural pétanque court, table football and ping-pong room. Beautiful panoramic view of the rolling Cluny countryside. Superb scenery.
