One-Off Feature

Within the extensive grounds of the extravagantly stylish Chateau de Villette sits La Grenouillère, a charming 18th century cottage which has been recently renovated and redecorated to provide a beautiful rustic hideaway in an area of heavenly tranquillity.

General Info

Private and peaceful, with breath-taking views over the lake and surrounding countryside, La Grenouillère is the ideal retreat from which to explore the stunning and unspoilt Burgundy landscape. The estate in which the cottage is situated lies in the magnificent nature park of the Morvan Hills, and the extensive grounds are full of gardens, woods and fields waiting to be explored. Dip in and out of the swimming pool, go walking in the countryside, take a picnic into the park or sample some wines at a local vineyard – this is a place for ultimate escapism.

The Area Surrounding The Property / Accommodation

The magnificent Burgundy countryside offers lots of opportunities for outdoor activities. There are several famous vineyards within easy driving distance where you can taste and purchase wines, the landscape is ideal for walking or cycling, and we can organise driven bird shooting and boar hunting. You could also play golf and horse ride, rummage for mushrooms and escargots, study the diverse wildlife or enjoy the scenery from the air. There are chateaux and Roman churches to visit, there are regular food markets in the picturesque neighbouring villages, you can shop for antiques in tiny shops, or you can savour the cuisine at some of the best restaurants in France.
