le Vieux Cuvage - Semur EN Brionnais
Joëlle & Michel (a former elite cyclist, passionate about both road and mountain biking) welcome you to a charming, authentic 19th-century winemaker's house, meticulously restored according to traditional methods. Nestled on a hillside, bordering gentle pastures beneath the wooded ridges of a beautiful forest, it lies in the heart of the sublime Brionnais bocage countryside, with the famous, peaceful Charolais cows as its privileged neighbors. Enjoy complete peace and tranquility within a scattered rural hamlet perched on a sunny southwest-facing plateau overlooking a bucolic valley through which a small river flows. Located in the heart of the unspoiled Brionnais countryside (protected as a ZNIEFF and Natura 2000 site for its rich flora and fauna), it is nestled in a magnificent, rolling landscape that blends agriculture and unspoiled nature. An exceptionally peaceful setting near the picturesque medieval village of Semur-en-Brionnais, the historic capital of the Brionnais region, a Cluniac site steeped in history and awarded the prestigious "Most Beautiful Villages of France" label (birthplace of Hugh of Semur, the future Saint Hugh, founder of Cluny Abbey), boasting an exceptional heritage (remains of a 10th-century medieval castle, a listed 12th-century Romanesque church and chapel, an imposing 19th-century priory, an 18th-century town hall, elegant historic residences, etc.). This spacious and very comfortable gîte features a beautiful, cathedral-ceilinged living room, created in the space formerly occupied by the historic wine cellar. Its warm, rustic charm, enhanced by contemporary touches, is further enhanced by meticulous heritage restoration (original fireplace mantel, stone walls, beams, and timbers). The cozy and inviting atmosphere complements the unique and captivating architecture of the surroundings. Full of charm and character. A large sheltered terrace, extending onto a sunny terrace, opens onto a pleasant, enclosed 1800m² garden, meticulously laid to lawn (a perfect, safe "play area" for children), flanked by fruit trees (cherry, peach, apple, pear, strawberry... / picking possible during your stay) and a large gravel courtyard, a literal "natural pétanque court". Enjoy a peaceful, unobstructed view of the beautiful surrounding countryside. Composition: Detached house (accessed via a short, drivable dirt track of 30m). Wi-Fi (fiber optic). Wood pellet stove + electric heating. Ground floor: living room/kitchen/lounge (single sofa bed 100x190cm), 1 bedroom (double bed 140x190cm), shower room (shower/WC), laundry room. First floor: mezzanine bedroom (2 single beds, 90x190cm). The two bedrooms are adjoining. There is no door between the bedroom and the living room (only a curtain). Enclosed garden (1800m²) + covered terrace + terrace + bicycle storage + natural pétanque court (in the courtyard) + private parking. Small shops 3 km away. Supermarkets 4 km away. Stay in one of the very few villages labeled "Most Beautiful Villages of France", in the footsteps of the founder of Cluny Abbey! Charming authentic 19th-century winemaker's house carefully restored according to the rules of the art - adorned with a very pleasant enclosed garden of 1800m² - nestled in peace and quiet in the heart of the sublime Brionnais bocage, "on a balcony" on the hillside, 2.5 km from the picturesque medieval village of Semur-en-Brionnais steeped in history and 3 km from the charming medieval market town of Marcigny, a "Cluniac Site" known in particular for its Monday morning market created in 1266 (all amenities on site including supermarkets). Total peace and quiet in a small rural hamlet, nestled on the edge of meadows under the wooded ridges of a beautiful forest, in the heart of the preserved Brionnais countryside (protected in ZNIEFF & "Natura 2000" for its rich fauna and flora), in the hollow of a magnificent hilly landscape mixing agriculture & preserved nature, not far from the banks of the Loire ("the last wild river in Europe" also classified as a "Natura 2000 Zone" for its exceptional biotope). An exceptionally privileged location on the Romanesque Churches circuit, with numerous "natural" footpaths and marked "green walks" (a very extensive network of identical hiking and mountain biking trails in the surrounding area), several "VTT-FFC" certified mountain biking routes (connected to a vast network of similar routes radiating outwards across the region), and the "Cycloroute71" (Saône-et-Loire cycling tour), 3.5 km from the "Véloire" Green Way along the Loire River (like the "tranquil canal" linking Roanne to Digoin), 25 km from the Canal du Centre Green Way adjacent to the EuroVelo 6 cycle route and the "Tour de Bourgogne à Vélo" cycle route, about 30 km from the first vineyards of the Côtes Roannaises, about 50 km from the vineyards of northern Beaujolais, and about 70 km from the Côtes Mâconnaises (various wine routes). Beaujolais to explore connected to the "Burgundy Wine Route"). Prime location at the very southern tip of Burgundy, in the heart of the sublime Charolais-Brionnais territory (labeled "Land of Art and History"), land of livestock farming & tradition (cradle of the AOC of world-renowned cattle breeds), rich in sumptuous landscapes and an exceptional historical heritage, at the crossroads of Sologne & Montagne Bourbonnaise and the Roannais region, not far from Mâconnais-Clunisois and Beaujolais. Ideally located for exploring several departments (at the crossroads of the Allier, Loire, and Rhône): 7 km from Anzy-le-Duc (home to one of the most beautiful Romanesque churches in Burgundy), 10 km from Saint-Christophe-en-Brionnais and its iconic weekly cattle market dating back to the late 15th century (one of the oldest in France, a veritable spectacle dedicated to the local Charolais star!), 20 km from the charming town of Charlieu (with its exceptional Romanesque Benedictine abbey), 22 km from La Clayette, 27 km from the "city of the Sacred Heart" of Paray-le-Monial, 28 km from Digoin (a river marina nestled at the confluence of three renowned canals, including the famous Canal du Centre), 31 km from La Clayette, 30 km from Charolles, 34 km from Roanne, and 51 km from Beaujeu (the historic capital). (Beaujolais region) & 54 km from the renowned PAL amusement park. The perfect base for a rejuvenating break with family or friends! A true mini-paradise for children!
