About this house rental
A charming, authentic 17th-century mill steeped in history (formerly a forge, sawmill, and flour and oil production site), meticulously preserved according to traditional methods (including, among other things, the original historic mechanisms with their imposing millstones in the entrance hall), nestled peacefully on the banks of the Grosne (a bucolic, fish-filled river), in a tranquil valley of wooded meadows (home to peaceful Charolais cows in season). Peace and quiet await you in a small rural hamlet, in the heart of a gently unspoiled mountain countryside (protected as a ZNIEFF and Natura 2000 site for its rich fauna and flora), blending nature and agriculture amidst hedgerows and beautiful wild forests. A magnificent landscaped setting and stunning surroundings. The cottage offers excellent comfort and is exceptionally spacious, with generously sized rooms. A very warm, rustic charm that resonates with the unique character of the place (rare heritage features: a majestic sculpted stone fireplace mantel, elegant timber frame and beams, stone walls, lintels and thresholds, original terracotta tiles). Full of charm and character. Atypical and a complete change of scenery. A cozy and inviting atmosphere. A lovely, spacious 50m² terrace, naturally shaded by trees, nestled by the water (fully secured), opens onto the surrounding countryside, on a 3000m² natural property. Composition: Detached house (accessed via an 80m dirt track suitable for vehicles). Wi-Fi (fiber optic). Oil-fired central heating + wood-burning stove. Ground floor: living room/kitchen, lounge (double sofa bed 140x190cm), separate WC. First floor: 3 bedrooms (one with a 160x200cm double bed, one with two 90x200cm single beds, and one with a 160x200cm double bed), bathroom (bath/shower/toilet), sauna (2 people). Grounds (3000m²) + terrace (50m²) + covered balcony/terrace + carport (1 space) + bicycle storage + private parking. Electric car charging point (fee applies). Small shops including a mini-market 6 km away. Mini-supermarket 8 km away. A truly exceptional address in the heart of the magnificent "Green Valleys of South Burgundy"! A rare and authentic old mill dating from the 17th century - steeped in history and very carefully preserved according to the rules of the art - revisited as a delightful charming holiday home (adorned with a small sauna), nestled in the calm within a peaceful little rural hamlet, 6 km from Tramayes & 8 km from Matour, a "Green Holiday Resort" (rich in a remarkable level of sports & leisure facilities including a swimming pool), charming typical villages & shops (numerous amenities, including a mini-market & supermarket). A magnificent landscaped setting surrounded by gently rolling mountains (the "little Switzerland of the Mâconnais" protected in various ZNIEFF & Natura 2000 zones for the quality of its rich ecosystem), nestled in the heart of the preserved countryside between green hedged meadows and beautiful wild forests in the hollow of the green Grosne valley on the wooded foothills of the northern Beaujolais massif, extending from the sumptuous landscape jewel of the Roches de Solutré & Vergisson labeled "Grand Site de France" (located 23 km away), neighboring the Saint-Cyr mountain (highest point of southern Burgundy) as well as the vineyards of Beaujolais (first vineyard in the world recognized as a "UNESCO Global Geopark") and Mâconnais including the renowned "Val Lamartinien" named after the famous French poet and writer who was a guest of the place ("Burgundy Wine Route" & "Beaujolais Wine Route" to explore). Prime location on the route of various marked footpaths including a "green walk" (a vast network of similar hiking trails crisscrossing the territory to be explored on foot or mountain bike), 6 km from the GR76, 7 km from the GR7, 8 km from the "Cycloroute 71" (tour of Saône-et-Loire by bike), 18 km from the Green Way of the "Great Loop of Southern Burgundy" (& its remarkable "Tunnel du Bois Clair" located at 19 km, the longest former railway tunnel in France opened to a Green Way with its 1.6 km) & 22 km from the renowned GTM mountain bike route ("Grand Tour of the Southern Burgundy Massif"), not far from the Romanesque churches circuit. Ultra privileged location on the border of the Rhône department, at the crossroads of the Clunisois-Tournugeois (labeled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire"), the Mâconnais & the upper Beaujolais adjoining the Charollais-Brionnais (labeled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire"). Ideal for exploring several departments: 12 km from the exceptional arboretum of Pézanin, 13 km from the renowned "Lab71" (discovery center on sustainable development & science), 22 km from Beaujeu (historic capital of Beaujolais), 22 km from the illustrious abbey town of Cluny, 23 km from La Clayette, 36 km from Mâcon (Mâcon Loché TGV station 31 km away), 36 km from Charolles, 43 km from Charlieu, 43 km from the medieval village of Semur-en-Brionnais which has the very rare label "Most Beautiful Villages of France", 48 km from Marcigny ("Cluniac Site" recognized for its Monday morning market created in 1266), 49 km from Paray-le-Monial (famous town of the "sacred heart") & 48 km from Villefranche-sur-Saône.
