Only 5½ hours drive from Calais our comfortable former farmhouse is set in idyllic countryside. Secluded and enclosed mature gardens of approx. 3/4 acre. BBQ and garden furniture with sun loungers surrounding the heated swimming pool. Suitable for families sharing or friends' get-togethers. The house is tranquil and has a certain charm. The living room has its original flag stone floor, a typical Burgundian beamed ceiling and a magnificent open fireplace, leading onto an elegant formal dining room. The sleepy village of La Riviere is situated between Beaune and Dijon in the heart of Burgundy, the wine capital and gastronomic centre of France. Also within easy reach is the town of Autun with its Roman market square, ampitheatre, cathedral and museums, ten pin bowling and many restaurants. We are also on the edge of the Morvan National Park with beautiful forests and lakes, particularly Lake Settons where you can hire sailing boats, hobby cats, pedaloes or go water skiing.
