The pool was enjoyed by all, particularly our daughter and her friend from Paris. We will return. A good fun time was had by all at the maison. The boys loved the swimming pool and all the outside activities and games. A lovely tranquil spot which was just what we needed. We should have stayed longer ! Our group of 10 had a fabulous week here. The house was fantastic, comfortable, attractive and in a very peaceful setting. From here we were able to explore the vineyards of Cote d'Or, of Chateau-Chalon and Dijon. And relaxing at the end of each day around the pool and the petanque court was a great way to wind up each day. Thank you Christophe for giving us everything we needed to have a superb week, and we hope to come back soon. Terms & Conditions Security deposit £1000. Energy costs included. Changeover day Friday.
