As an exercise in how to take a 17th century Orangerie and turn it into a modern comfortable house then this property should win an award. There are all of the very old, more recent and very modern to be found in this house. The most obviously very modern are the two shower rooms and separate toilet. The 3 bedrooms are all very large king size bedrooms furnished well and in a more recent style, there is a large living room and a full size kitchen with an 8 seat dining table. One of the 3 bedrooms is attached to the house but accessed by going outside the house.

The house is secure, 15minutes walk from the old city walls of Beaune, it has a very large garden and parking adequate for 2 smaller cars or 1 large car.

For anyone who still worries about french plumbing then this house also proves that modern french plumbing is as good as anywhere else.

Marie, the owner speaks very good English and was most helpful, she lives very close to the property and is therefore very accessible if required.

I will definitely be back and for longer as my stay here has caused me to decide I would like to spend a little longer exploring the towns and countryside of the Bourgogne
