Keywords: Ancient Mill
Located in the wonderful chateau village of Etrochey, this ancient Mill is idyllically placed on the banks of the River Seine. A family home.
A two year renovation project. A pleasure to enter the Ivory wrought Iron gates and appreciate the view from the courtyard over the gardens and private entrance to the Riverbank of the Seine.
This property has been renovated to a very high standard, retaining the natural features & charm while upgrading the property as a whole. Through the double doors, the entrance is drenched in natural sunlight and opens up to the wonderful fully equipped kitchen complete with long Oak table & open Burgundy stone fireplace.
Appliances include Smeg oven & hob and American fridge. The river runs through it...or under it...the Lounge with open fire, overlooking the gardens & River Seine. Cozy & spacious(!)this living area leads into the Dining room and both are perfect for the nights in Burgundy enjoying the gastronomic delights this region has to offer.
Sleeping ... All 4 large bedrooms boast French antiques, exposed beamwork & stonework & original oak parquet floors; accommodating all ... couples, singles & children holidaying together. There are 2 ½ bathrooms within this property, over two floors and are decorated to a high standard.
Outside…is wonderful, eat ‘Al Fresco’ , ‘paddle’ in the River, ‘tickle’ the trout, & harvest the fresh herbs and vegetables in the kitchen garden as they seasonally ripen. Having shared our newly renovated home with family & friends who live further away, we know this is truly a wonderful location for a holiday to relax and have fun.
We would be delighted to welcome you soon...
Famille Payot.

We stayed at the old mill for two wonderful weeks. I cannot express how tranquil the environment was! The mill and its accommodation was just right everything you could need and all clean and well presented. We were blessed by the arrival of two new leather settees which made evenings more comfortable still. The weather during our stay was just right for exploring by car, sitting in the grounds or for the more energetic... cycling - two of our party had brought cycles so on most days some or all of us went off to explore the surrounding villages and countryside. Mr. + Mrs Payot were extremely warm, helpful and kind - nothing was too much trouble. We visited local towns and cities but particularly enjoyed our visit to the vineyard belonging to Sylvain Bouhelier a producer of Cremant de Bourgogne in the village of Chaumont-le-Bois. Also worth the drive was the completely unspoilt hilltop village Flavigny which during our visit was sunbaked and beautify - lavender, geraniums, hollyhocks, plum trees. In Auxerre we ate at a restaurant opposite the market. The local bakery in Chatillon was brilliant for an early morning cycle to collect goodies for breakfast. Auchan - supermarket - was just a 10 minutes by car and stocked all the usual supermarket goods. The villagers we met and spoke to were extremely friendly so it made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommended if you don't want to be disturbed by anything other than a resident 'Mrs Chicken' who flew over the garden wall most days and who we all became quite fond of!!
Recommended for:Sightseeing, age 55+, families with teenagers.
