Stunning holiday home near Beaune
We rented this property as a base to explore the vineyards of burgundy and it met or exceeded our expectations. Set in a large garden of about an acre the trees were autumnal and the pool empty alas but grapes were hanging ripe on the eaves. The property is older with great character and lots of bedrooms Although a bit chilly outside the electric heating was very efficient the plumbing worked well. We would have liked more than one stand up shower ( the 2 upstairs bathrooms had showers in the baths). The kitchen was well supplied for all styles of cooking although the gas flame on the cooker burns black ( I think there must be a fault maybe the wrong burner for LPG bottled gas?) but works fine. The lighting could be better and so many houses seem to have architects besotted with multiple small lights that all need turning on and off separately! The beds were very comfortable with duvets throughout. There were heaps of reading materials and very good WiFi. We hardly looked at the TV. However the best part of all is Jane the owner who went well beyond the norm to provide us with kind helpful and timely advice both before during and after our stay. Thank you so much Jane you are a star!!!
