Le Silence des Prés

Guadeloupean by birth, Burgundian by adoption, and literally in love with her region for over 40 years, Laure welcomes you to an elegant character house dating from 1860, carefully restored and steeped in history ("maison de maitre" once linked to a large "bourgeois" farm, of which the outbuildings remain). Total tranquillity in the heart of the Morvan countryside, perched on the edge of meadows facing a small pond on a bucolic, open, well-exposed bocage plateau, on the edge of a peaceful little rural hamlet overlooking the village of Curgy (listed 11th century Romanesque church), 10 km from the majestic Château de Sully (16th century / French MH classification), one of the finest private French châteaux open to the public and the birthplace of Mac Mahon, President of the French Republic. Nestling in a verdant bocage valley bordering an immense wild forest (a collection of several vast state-owned forests) & the bucolic valley of the Drée (a river full of fish), this typical little village has a soothing, unspoilt rural setting of gentle rolling hills. Comfortable rooms nestled under the roofs in "cocoon" mode, combining country-style "bourgeois" style with a more contemporary feel. Spacious shower rooms. Delightful living room enhanced by the rich traces of the original building (terracotta floor tiles, French ceiling, mantelpiece, etc.). Large, shaded terrace opening onto a pleasant, intimate, natural garden with flowers, plants and trees (apple, cherry, peach, etc.) nestling on the edge of meadows (not overlooked). Beautiful unobstructed view of the surrounding countryside. Features: Wifi. Gas central heating. Shared living room on ground floor (TV & wood-burning stove). 2 "double" bedrooms + small lounge shared by guests on 1st floor (double bed 140x190cm in each) with private shower room (shower/WC). Shared terrace + garden + bicycle shed + carport. Private car park. All amenities including restaurants 9 km away.
