About this property

The "Maison de Coeur" CHARMING House & Garden -Village & River- Ideal for Family

The "Maison de Coeur"
HOUSE OF CHARACTER XVIII-XIX with barn & gardens in the heart of a pretty village : nice river, Burgundy Canal, cows, sheep... Charm & simplicity, stones & old beams...
A quiet house, easy to live, heat or cool. Bread & croissant at the café. Grocer/butcher deliveries like in the old times! Ideal for families : canoe, swings 50m, aquatic center 15mn car. A paradise for cycling - rented & delivered bikes at the TO of Montbard. A haven full of charm 1 h TGV from Paris!

"I like the alliance of charm and simplicity that makes "La Maison de Coeur" a perfect place to feel quiet in the gardens or to visit the surroundings by bike or car - numerous historical sites - or even take a trip to Paris - 1 hour by TGV from Montbard or 2h TER !
The house is at the very heart of a small village : Cry/Armançon. A charming place, surrounded by fields and forests, cows and sheep ; lovely river with an area to play and picnic, old bridge, church and crypt of the XI c.
At 200m : the BURGUNDY CANAL ! Ideal for cycling !
Bread and croissant, take away dishes at the café-restaurant just facing the house !
Food shopping ? In the next village 5mn car, or 20mn by bike along the canal, or simply waiting for deliveries at home : butcher and grocery !

DESCRIPTION
"La Maison de Coeur" can comfortably accommodate 6 to 7 people with its 3 bedrooms, one living room and a large kitchen, and 2 gardens ( 200m2 +300m2). It is an old but practical house with a lot of charm, for those not seeking luxury, but loving calm, in a spirit of respecting the neighbors, home and gardens.
LOCATION duration : whole week from Saturday to Saturday, unless otherwise agreed.

1- Garden level
1 bedroom, 140cm bed / bed spring, adjoining bathroom, WC, washing machine. Barn with garden furniture + barbecue + various kid garden toys (COVID period : family clean them with alcohol after use).

2 - On the main level:
Large kitchen (induction hob, oven, freezer, dishwasher, electric kettle, blender, NO microwave), living room, bathroom with tub and toilet.

3- On the upper floor, two bedrooms:
- Room 1 with 160cm bed/bed spring+ stow-away bed of 90cm.
Closed by a curtain.
- Bedroom 1 double bed 140cm/bed spring+ 90cm/bed spring +foldable baby crib with high edges. Closed by a door.

HIGHLIGHTS of "La Maison de Coeur" are, in my opinion :
- CHARM AND SIMPLICITY.
- THE GARDENS - perfect to feel at home ; ideal for barbecues and lounge chair, or simply to drop bicycles coming back from the canal...
- EASY LIVING: 2 train stations (TER 5mn and TGV 15mn), grocery stores or markets (5mn or 15mn by car), grocery delivery twice a week, and quality butcher delivery once a weak...!
- BAR-RESTAURANT opposite the house for bread and croissant, a coffee or burgundy aperitif, lunch or take away dishes to be eaten in the garden...
- RAPID refreshing or heating of the house, simply by pressing a button (heat pump).

Concerning the "TECHNOLOGY", it is a house with internet but without TV or microwave...
This old house also has a special feature in the two upstairs bedrooms, the floor "sings" under the feet. This is not the case of the room on the ground floor.
Church bells may wake you up in the morning ! The Angelus is at 7 am... Some people just love it. Some people don't even notice...!

HOME GUIDEBOOK
At your disposal in the kitchen : our homemade guidebook with lots of photos that the hosts find very convenient to find everything : WIFI code, where to find what, practical addresses, days of the grocer's or butcher's delivery, pleasant walks, sites to visit - known and less known etc.

WHICH PARTS OF THE HOUSE ARE OPEN ?
"La Maison de Coeur" is entirely accessible except 3 rooms, on the ground floor. The barn is open too, but it is asked not to play ball in it, and it is strictly prohibited to climb the heights of the barn.
Chimney fires are forbidden (trap door out of order).


-------------------- PRACTICAL POINTS -------------------------------
HOME LINEN
TWO POSSIBILITIES :
- not supplied - unless otherwise agreed.
- If you want it to be provided, extra charge of 7 € per person for sheets, pillowcase and towel. 2 dish towels. Invoiced via Airbnb (with no additionnal commission fee).
Just let us know when you book or soon after.

IN ALL CASES, YOU WILL FIND AT HOME - linen supplied or not :
- pillows, two comfortable mattress protectors per bed, blankets and duvets, bolsters ...
- bathroom : 1 hand towel + 1 roll of toilet paper.
- OUTSIDE COVID PERIOD : some oil and vinegar, salt, spices, tea and other herbal tea cupboard. Everything is indicated in the guidebook of the house!
- garbage bags, household products, sponges and rags.
NOTA BENE: NO DISH TOWEL PROVIDED.

HOUSECLEANING
TWO POSSIBILITIES :
- Cleaning charge 70 € to be specified in advance, ideally when booking.
- Or quality housecleaning by your own. In this case, we ask our guests to leave the house in the state of cleanliness where they found it. It is important for us that our hosts engage in this task responsibly, as it may be impossible to find someone at the last minute to clean before the arrival of new guests. It would be a very uncomfortable situation for everyone.
An efficient household of 2 good hours is enough. If not, more...!

FINAL TIDYING UP
IN ALL CASES, we ask our guests to tidy up of the house, garden and barn, unless otherwise agreed.
The home guidebook with all the photos is at your disposal in the kitchen, so it not complicated !
In case of clearly insufficient tydying up, we will then have to do it for you; this may justify the request for payment of additional fees.

HEATING/AIR CONDITIONING
We thank our guests for turning it off in the unoccupied rooms, or when leaving the house.

INTERNET and THUNDERSTORMS
Do you go on a ride or stay at home?
In case of RISK OF THUNDERSTORM, THANK YOU to take the precaution of DISCONNECTING ENTIRELY THE BOX : electrical outlet + telephone jack.

SHOPS
All shops and market Friday morning (organic producer): Montbard 16km, small but great supermarket in Ravières 6 minutes by car or 20 minutes by bike along the canal. Bread in the café facing the house. Great bakery-pastry in Nuits, 5 mn car.
Deliveries of grocer and butcher in the village... (detail in the manual at home)

BABY AND SMALL CHILDREN
"La Maison de Coeur" has 2 staircases:
- an interior wooden staircase. The space between the bars is standard and without any risk for babies. In revenge, the wooden steps are without countermarch (see photo). Please set the protective barriers (photos in the guidebook will help to install them), baby surveillance audio system with nightlight + one more night light.
- an exterior stone staircase leading from the garden to the kitchen. The bars of the ramp are wider than the norms and so you have to make sure to install the protective barriers at the kitchen door or watch the little ones.

BABY EQUIPMENT
- foldable bed with high sides, baby bottle warmer, one high chair, tableware and some cutlery, one bib, plug protections, a baby seat relax, a foldable park, a baby bath tub with its soft fabric seat.

Séjour très agréable.
La maison est chaleureuse, le jardin est très agréable et l’emplacement à proximité immédiate de la rivière et du canal sont très appréciables. Notre hôte bien que non présente sur les lieux est très disponible et dispense de bons conseils. L’ambiance du village est également très sympa. La mise à disposition de velos serait un plus.

Nostalgie und Ruhe
Das geräumige, alte und authentische Steinhaus ist ein toller Ort, um sich zu entspannen. Sehr privat mit einem abgeschlossenen Garten. Die Lage in einem kleinen ruhigen Dorf ist sehr angenehm. In der Bar du Pont gegenüber konnten wir unseren Morgenespresso genießen und Baguette bestellen für das Frühstück. Mehrere Sehenswürdigkeiten (Abbaye de Fontenay, Semur en Auxois, Noyer sur Serein, mehrere Schlösser, …) sind in gut mit dem Auto erreichbarer Entfernung. Wir schätzten die herzliche Kommunikation und Betreuung unserer Gastgeberin Christelle sehr. Wir hatten einen langen Anruf vor unserem Aufenthalt und auch während und danach hat sie gefragt, ob alles gut geht. Christelle ist eine sehr aufmerksame und zuvorkommende Gastgeberin.

Séjour très reposant dans un cadre charmant
Propriété idéale pour un séjour en famille notamment (disposant de tout le confort et des équipements utiles à la présence de jeunes enfants). L'habitation et le jardin ombragé sont très charmants et situés dans un environnement extrêmement calme. La proximité de la rivière est un atout important notamment en période de canicule...! Beaucoup de belles choses à découvrir dans la région. Christelle est très sympathique et disponible pour toute information pratique concernant la maison ou les conseils touristiques! Un lieu que nous conseillons vivement.

About the host

Hosted by Christelle Willemez

Host profile image
Bonjour!...
Here is a host in her first steps with HomeAway ...
Born on April the 1st, from a military father and a mother born artist.
I inherited the rigor and imagination, practicality and taste for beauty - sweet mix !
My activities have led me from marketing... to theater and therapy. Wonderland!
I love nature and I love Paris. I like to meet and exchange with people and I like silent retreats. I like to eat and drink and I like sobriety. I love the abundance and I love parsimony. I like action and I like meditation. I love humor and I like depth ...

My favorite phrase at the moment:
" These are not the things that trouble us, but the opinion they inspire us. " Epictete.
And Bam!
Welcome here in anyway, you should feel good there ...

Why they chose this property

A lovely house in a lovely region that allows the daughter of a military father to "take root "... after so many relocations!
Happiness to share this place with my friends and careful hosts, loving old stones ...

What makes this property unique

Charm, tranquility, authenticity, simplicity ...
