About this property

Le Moulin de Lalheue

An exceptional and very rare authentic 12th-century mill, meticulously renovated into a supremely comfortable and charming holiday retreat, steeped in history and perfectly preserved (a heritage gem once linked to the Abbey of La Ferté, incorporating all its original works of art), nestled on the banks of a vast, private 1-hectare pond on the Grosne River, with a rowboat available (renowned for its pike, open to anglers). Peace and tranquility in the heart of the countryside, within a tiny rural hamlet nestled on the edge of fields and meadows (with peaceful Charolais cows as close neighbors) at the edge of the vast, wild state forest of La Ferté. A soothing, unspoiled setting and a truly unique location, nestled in a magnificent landscaped setting (a protected Natura 2000 site), just a stone's throw from the center of the typical and picturesque village (with its listed 12th-century Romanesque church). A very comfortable and spacious holiday cottage. The vast living area boasts an impressive cathedral ceiling (7m high). It exudes a warm, refined, and rustic charm with contemporary touches (superb staircase and designer glass roof), blending tradition and modernity in an elegant mix and match, enhanced by meticulous heritage restoration (majestic fireplace mantels, stone lintels and walls, sculptural original timber frame). Full of character, it offers a cozy and relaxing atmosphere, a complete change of scenery. A large, enclosed courtyard-terrace offers both sunny and shaded views. A pleasant, natural garden of 1100m² is planted with trees, flowers, and greenery. Enjoy beautiful, unobstructed views of the river and surrounding countryside. Layout: Detached house. Oil-fired central heating + wood-burning stove. Wi-Fi. Ground floor: living room/kitchen/lounge, 1 bedroom (double bed 160x200cm) with en-suite shower room (shower/WC), laundry room. First floor: 2 bedrooms (double bed 160x200cm in each) with en-suite shower rooms (shower/WC / open-plan bathroom with freestanding bathtub + separate WC). Balcony + courtyard/terrace + garden (1100m²) + private parking. Amenities 7.5 km. Train station 18 km. A truly exceptional address, an absolutely magical setting! This very elegant and charming gîte, with bedrooms and en-suite bathrooms, is nestled within a rare and perfectly preserved authentic 12th-century mill – steeped in history and meticulously restored according to traditional methods – in a peaceful location on the banks of a wide river at the confluence of two protected natural areas designated as "Natura 2000 Zones" for the quality of their rich ecosystems. It is 7.5 km from the charming, typical market town of Sennecey-le-Grand (with numerous amenities). This peaceful rural hamlet is nestled on the edge of meadows, a stone's throw from the center of the picturesque village of Lalheue, in the bucolic Grosne Valley, which meanders at the foot of the wooded foothills of the South Burgundy massif. The gently rolling countryside offers sublime landscapes, a succession of vineyard-covered hillsides, hedged farmland, rivers, and vast wild forests. An exceptionally privileged location at the crossroads of the vineyards of the Haut-Mâconnais and the Côtes Chalonnaises (first vines 8 km away), ideally situated on the Romanesque churches circuit and several marked "green walks" hiking trails, 6 km from a marked mountain bike trail (connected to the vast marked area of the southern Burgundy massif, including the renowned GTM / Grand Tour of the Southern Burgundy Massif), 7 km from the GR76 long-distance hiking trail alongside the legendary "Monks' Way", 10 km from the greenway connected to a 26 km "favorite cycling loop" (3 other similar routes accessible within a radius of about 15 km), 15 km from the blueway (along the Saône River), 10 km from the "Route des Grands Vins" (Côtes Chalonnaises & Couchois) and 13 km from the "Route des Vins de Bourgogne" (Mâconnais-Beaujolais). A prime location. between the Grosne and Saône rivers, at the crossroads of southern Chalon, the Tournugeois-Clunisois region (designated a "Land of Art and History"), the Mâconnais, and the Bresse Bourguignonne, all rich in exceptional heritage and magnificent landscapes. 13 km from the medieval town of Saint-Gengoux-le-National (designated a "Town of Character of Burgundy-Franche-Comté"), 17 km from the medieval village of Brancion, 18 km from Tournus (world-renowned abbey site), 20 km from Chalon-sur-Saône (designated a "Town of Art and History"), 30 km from the illustrious abbey town of Cluny, 39 km from Louhans, 41 km from the Le Creusot TGV station, 49 km from Mâcon (Mâcon TGV station 52 km away), 51 km from the sumptuous jewel Landscaped around the Roche de Solutré (a designated "Grand Site de France") and 52 km from Beaune. A true haven of peace, 100% rejuvenating, combining great comfort, a gentle way of life, unspoiled nature & rich history!

Early June Retreat

Loved the property and its eclectic design of 12th century and modern fittings. We enjoyed the walking trails, the neighborhood and the small villages surrounding this special Gite.

Wir(sechs Erwachsene) haben unseren Aufenthalt in dieser gepflegten und geschmackvoll eingerichteten Mühle sehr genossen. Lalheue ist ein hübscher kleiner Ort, in dem es jedoch keinerlei Einkaufsmöglichkeiten gibt, dafür aber viel Natur, die zum Wandern /Radfahren einlädt.Ein Aufenthalt in dieser Mühle ist auf jeden Fall empfehlenswert.
