La Roche Enchantée - ETANG SUR ARROUX

Barbara & Patrick welcome you to an authentic 19th-century Morvan farmhouse, carefully restored using eco-construction methods, nestled in the peace and quiet of a chestnut grove, on a hillside on a southern slope, in the hollow of an intimate clearing on a 1-hectare "natural" property, adjoining their home converted into a "micro farm" (sheltering their horses in season & a henhouse), classified as an "LPO Refuge", maintained with a view to protecting biodiversity. Absolute tranquility in the countryside, in a small rural hamlet steeped in history (once home to "stone cutter" quarries for historic monuments, from which the spire of Autun Cathedral came). A literal haven of peace & rest, surrounded by nature, in a magnificent, preserved landscaped setting. Very comfortable gîte. Very warm, country-style charm with contemporary accents, a "country chic" feel, enhanced by the rich traces of the original building (framework and beams, walls, fireplace mantel and stone lintels, etc.). Enormous charm and character. Ultra-cozy. The cozy atmosphere of a sweet "family home." Large panoramic balcony terrace overlooking a natural garden with a relaxation area, complemented by a second shaded gravel terrace in the summer on the courtyard side. Composition: Detached house next to the owners' house (complete independence). Access to the property via a 30m driveable stone path. Wi-Fi (fiber). Electric heating + wood stove. 1st floor (level access via small staircase leading down from the parking lot): living room-kitchen-lounge, 1 bedroom (double bed 160x200cm), bathroom (shower/WC), separate WC, laundry area. 2nd floor: mezzanine-TV games room (2-person sofa bed 140x190cm as an extra), 1 bedroom (double bed 140x200cm + 3 single beds 90x200cm). Balcony-terrace + gravel terrace + garden (lower, access via descending path) + bicycle storage + private parking. Mini supermarket 3.5 km. All amenities 14 km. A literal haven of peace and relaxation nestled "in the hollow of the woods" in the heart of the Morvan Natural Park! Authentic 19th century Morvan farmhouse completely renovated into a gentle holiday resort in an "ecological" spirit nestled in a quiet hillside on a private "natural" property of 1 ha, located 4 km from the typical and commercial village of Etang-sur-Arroux (many amenities including swimming pool and small supermarket) and 14 km from Autun, labeled "Town of Art and History", rich in 2000 years of human presence (literally exceptional heritage, all amenities on site). Absolute tranquility, in the heart of the gentle, unspoiled Morvan countryside (partly protected in ZNIEFF for its rich ecosystems), a magnificent hilly setting combining verdant hedged meadows, rivers & vast wild forests, nestled at the confluence of the three bucolic valleys of the Braconne, Mesvrin and Arroux, on the southern slope of the Morvan massif, at the foot of the Uchon massif & its famous summit of the "Signal d'Uchon" ("the Pearl of the Morvan", a listed natural site), not far from the famous Mont Beuvray (protected in "Natura 2000 Zone", occupied by the renowned "oppidum" of Bibracte, an ancient fortified Gallic town, one of the best preserved with its ramparts & districts extending over 200 ha) & Haut Folin (highest point of the Morvan massif at 901m) as well as the territory of the "Great Lakes of Morvan". Prime location not far from the Romanesque churches circuit, ideally located on the marked municipal footpaths, a stone's throw from numerous "green walks" (vast network of identical hiking trails crisscrossing the area), 4 km from the GR131 (connected to the GR13 as well as the renowned GRP of the "Grand Tour du Morvan"), 4 km from the "Celtic Way", 4 km from the legendary GTMC mountain bike circuit (Grande Traversée du Massif Central), 4 km from the "Cycloroute71" (Tour de Saône-et-Loire à vélo), 16 km from the Green Way "from Morvan to the Vineyards" and around forty km from the Couchois vineyards (adjoining the famous Côtes de Beaune & Hautes Côtes de Beaune) & the "Route des Grands Vins" which extends the illustrious "Route des Grands Crus" (crossing the legendary wine-growing villages of Puligny-Montrachet, Pommard, Meursault…). In the heart of the Autunois, a sumptuous territory steeped in history, traditions, legends & mysteries, rich in a very rare historical heritage as well as grandiose landscapes, at the crossroads of the Nièvre and the Côte d'Or, 19 km from the renowned Paldenshangpa Buddhist temple, 21 km from the famous Gallo-Roman archaeological site of Bibracte labeled "Grand Site de France", 24 km from Le Creusot (renowned Combes amusement park / Creusot TGV station 32 km away), 26 km from the departure station of the "Vélorail du Morvan" (22 km of unusual nature walks), 41 km from the medieval & wine-growing city of Nolay, 46 km from Château-Chinon & 49 km from the renowned Lac des Settons (supervised fine sand beach, water sports center & multiple aquatic activities). An unusual and very enveloping "cocoon" full of charm, 100% rejuvenating, for a "timeless break" with family or friends!
