A Beautiful Longerre Farmhouse set in the heart of Burgundy

Le Buisson is one of the small friendly hamlets that make up Sainte Colombe Sur Loing.

Gite de Pete is part of a traditional longerre, built around 1850 of Burgundy Limestone, the outside has been rendered and is tastefully painted to reflect the local colours, the interior has been sympathetically renovated, while retaining traditional high beamed ceilings and fireplaces with cosy log burners.
Our home is the second half of the longerre, separated and in it’s own grounds, giving you privacy, but we are available should you need anything.

We are also able to provide breakfast - croissants and pastries, as well as extra coffee for the machine. An evening meal can also be provided, each evening, with notice when booking
