Yonne house-cottage Rental Property Information

This idyllic 18th Century French Manor House is set in its own 24-acre park bordered by the wooded banks of the river Armancon. It is the perfect place for a holiday in France with family and friends. The house is maintained to a high standard with a lovely warm welcoming atmosphere. It sleeps 6-16+ in nine elegant bedrooms, six of which are en-suite. It has a heated swimming pool, grass tennis court, walled garden, avenue, barbecue, table tennis, private fishing and a rowing boat on the river which runs through the park. We have a wonderful cook and helpful maids/babysitters who live in the adjoining village. We also have a charming Gate House available for rental for smaller groups (sleeps 4+) or for larger groups renting the Main House. The Gate House is completely independent of the Main House and unless let with the Main House does not have access to the park or heated pool. It does have its own private garden with access to the river and small boat.

This charming manor house and park nestles on the edge of the quiet village of Cry-sur-Armancon, with its beautiful church, bridge and tree lined river which borders the park. It really is a paradise for both adults and children. The whole region is renowned not only for its food and wine but also for its fascinating history with its beautiful chateaux, abbeys and fortified towns. From La Maison du Chateau you are within easy driving distance of the ancient towns of Auxerre, Avallon, Dijon, Noyers, Saulieu, Vezelay, and even Beaune and Autun. The Abbeys of Fontenay and Pontigny, the magnificent chateaux of Ancy-le-Franc, Epoisses and Tanlay, to mention a few. The Forges de Buffon, the wine town of Chablis, the spectacular fortified town of Semur-en-Auxois, and the charming hill top village of Flavigny-sur-Ozerain (where the film 'Chocolat' was made) are all within forty minutes. There are a surprising number of treasures hidden away in this wonderfully peaceful and unspoilt area.
