Jean-Louis & Patricia open the doors of an authentic 19th century Burgundian farmhouse of character, carefully restored, nestled in a quiet area on the edge of a lane & the edge of a small wood, on an unusual site steeped in history on the site of an old quarry of which a few imposing rocks remain. Nestled on the banks of the Saône (with direct access by small footpath & mountain bike) in the hollow of an area classified as a "Natura 2000 Zone" for its remarkable ecosystem, not far from the Truchère nature reserve, the peaceful typical village of Lacrost faces Tournus, & its beautiful colorful facades of Mediterranean character, nestled on the opposite bank.

Authentic 19th century Burgundian farmhouse of character, fully restored with care, nestled in the peace and quiet of a peaceful little typical village nestled on the banks of the Saône - in the hollow of a protected area classified as a Natura 2000 Zone - on an atypical & unusual site (old quarry of which some imposing rocks remain on the courtyard side!), opposite the charming gastronomic city of Tournus, gateway to southern Burgundy, & its world-renowned abbey site located on the opposite bank (all amenities on site). Prime location on the Romanesque church circuit & a marked mountain bike loop, 2 km from the greenway, a referenced 42 km "Coup de cœur" bike loop and the renowned GTM (Grand Tour du Massif Sud Bourgogne) route, very close to several marked hiking trails as "green walks" (crisscrossing the countryside), 5 km from the first vineyards of Haut Mâconnais (and the wine route) and 5 km from the Truchère Nature Reserve (remarkable ecosystem, mosaic of natural environments nestled near the Saône-Seille confluence). Particularly privileged central location - equidistant from Dijon and Lyon - bordering the Mâconnais vineyards in close proximity to the Côtes Chalonnaises & famous Côtes de Beaune (various wine routes to explore), at the crossroads of the rich territories of Tournugeois-Clunisois (labeled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire"), Mâconnais, Bresse Bourguignonne and Chalonnais. Ideal for exploring (A6 4 km away): 6 km from Cuisery, listed among the very exclusive 8 French Book Villages, 26 km from Louhans (and its iconic medieval thoroughfare with 157 arcades), 30 km from Chalon-sur-Saône (labelled City of Art & History), 32 km from Mâcon (Mâcon Loché TGV station 38 km away), 36 km from the illustrious abbey city of Cluny and 40 km from the sublime landscaped jewel of the Roche de Solutré, labelled Grand Site de France.
