Old building but comfortable, in a quiet very rural area. Very pleasant owners live nearby.
Warm cosy and comfortable property with 'character' and in a good location for visiting Vézelay and area. Renovated and modernised inside to a good standard, with pleasant outdoor seating areas. Bring your own teapot if you need one! A useful bread van comes 3 times a week with baguettes. Nearest village shops (in St Père) are about a 10 minute drive. Neither our 'school' French nor the owners' English was good so the booking process via the web site emails wasn't easy. The whole booking process (for this, and for another gîte) through the HomeAway web site was very clunky and tedious. I would not choose to book through HomeAway again. The owners are very pleasant and helpful despite our language difficulties. Electricity and the local tax are charged extra, as are bedding and towels if you don't bring your own.

Ecrin de verdure très calme et régénérant
Très bel emplacement, avec des promenades aux vues superbes ( avec dégustations de grappes de mûres le long des sentiers… ) Très proche des sites emblématiques de la région ( Vézelay, Bazoche, Avallon…) Maison où on se sent " comme à la maison", aménagé, très pratique… Annie est une hôte charmante et très disponible. Repos assuré et dîners sous les étoiles… Merci Annie pour ce merveilleux séjour !

Ruhe und Landidylle
Sehr freundliche Vermieter!! Wir haben die Ruhe genossen, absolut kein nerviger Verkehrslärm. Für den Hund ideal durch den umzäunten Garten. An den ersten beiden kühleren Abenden wärmendes Holzfeuer. Die Ausstattung lässt nichts vermissen. Idealer Urlaub, wenn man sich darauf einstellt, dass es in näherer Umgebung keine Läden gibt - also ist etwas Einkaufslogisitik gefragt.
