This idyllic 18th Century Manor House is set in its own 24-acre park bordered by the wooded banks of a river. It is the perfect place for a holiday. The house is maintained to a high standard with a lovely warm welcoming atmosphere. It has a heated fully fenced swimming pool, grass tennis court, walled garden, avenue, barbecue, table tennis, fishing, its own boat on the river and even its own small island.
The house with its marbled hall, curving staircase and tall windows combines elegance and comfort. It sleeps 6-16+ (up to 10-12 in the main house and 4+ in the adjoining barn which also has a beautiful music room with a grand piano). The Main House is excellent for smaller as well as larger parties.
We have a wonderful cook and helpful maids/babysitters [at additional cost] who live in the adjoining village (15 mins from Montbard with its direct TGV link to Paris).
There is space for you to park your car beside the house which you enter by the garden door. Garden furniture is provided.
