Gîte de la Maleine - CERSOT

Caroline & Christian (horse enthusiast, owner of the "Haras des Blinys" located nearby / visit possible in his company) open the doors of an authentic 19th century barn, steeped in history & very carefully restored according to the rules of art (formerly linked to the farm & wine estate which occupied the premises), nestled in the calm on the edge of pastures (with horses & Charolais cows as peaceful neighbors in seasons) on a vast "open" plateau of wooded meadows & cultivated fields. A typical small rural hamlet nestled near the vineyards, in the heart of the verdant Guye Valley, in the gentle rolling countryside (protected as a ZNIEFF and Natura 2000 site for its rich flora and fauna), a peaceful landscape blending agriculture, viticulture, and the great outdoors (perfect for relaxing walks or mountain biking), a succession of vineyard-covered hillsides, hedgerows, and beautiful wild forests, bordering the bucolic lakes and ponds of the Creusot region. A spacious and very comfortable gîte. A large 50m² living area enhanced by a stunning designer metal staircase and the unique character of the place (original stone walls and stone and wood lintels). Bedrooms nestled in a cozy, cabin-like style under the eaves. A warm country charm with contemporary touches, blending tradition and modernity. A pleasantly shaded terrace in summer opens onto a lovely enclosed garden with lawn and trees. Composition: Semi-detached house (comprising the holiday cottage and a vacant apartment) adjoining the owners' house (complete privacy). Wi-Fi. Heat pump heating (electric upstairs). Duplex cottage on two levels. Ground floor: living room/kitchen/lounge, shower room, separate WC. First floor: 2 bedrooms (2 single beds 90x190cm that can be joined to make a double bed 180x190cm / double bed 140x190cm + single bed 90x190cm), mezzanine landing (relaxation area), separate WC. Enclosed garden (100m²) + terrace + bicycle storage + private parking. Shops & supermarkets 8 km. Authentic barn built in the 19th century carefully revisited into a very comfortable holiday home, nestled in the quiet on a pleasant enclosed garden, in the hollow of a bucolic plateau of fields & meadows, a stone's throw from the vineyards, in the heart of a small rural hamlet located 7 km from the charming medieval, wine-growing & commercial town of Buxy (numerous amenities on site including a supermarket). In the heart of the gentle rolling wine country (protected as a ZNIEFF), on the borders of the Creusot basin (and its large lakes & ponds) and the southern Chalonnais, a soothing preserved landscape combining agriculture, viticulture & the great outdoors, between hedgerows, rivers, vineyard slopes & vast wild forests, next to the verdant Guye valley (partly protected as a Natura 2000 Zone for its rich ecosystems) & the sublime Vaux valley ("the little Switzerland of Chalonnaise"), at the crossroads of the Côtes Chalonnaises & Mâconnais vineyards, traversed by the "Burgundy Wine Route" & the "Great Wines Route" (which is extended by the illustrious "Great Crus Route" crossing the mythical wine villages of Puligny-Montrachet, Pommard, Meursault…). Ultra privileged location on the GR7 & GR76 routes (at the junction of the two routes), the Romanesque churches circuit, a marked "green walk" footpath (very rich network of similar hiking trails, winding between vineyards & open nature, to be explored on foot or by mountain bike), 6 km from a marked cycle route serving the Canal du Centre Greenway (river route to be explored also during relaxing boat trips / river marina 23 km away) adjoining the EuroVelo6 cycle route as well as the "Tour de Bourgogne à vélo" & 8 km from the Greenway of the "Grande Boucle de Bourgogne du Sud" linked to the "Cycloroute71" (Tour de Saône et Loire à vélo).
