Das Haus ist ein hervorragender Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen in hügeliger, leicht mittelgebirgiger Landschaft - die auch nach einem langen Sommer noch wunderbar grün ist! Die weitere Umgebung bietet ebenso ausgiebige Möglichkeiten zur Besichtigung historischer Stätten. Das WLAN funktioniert (mittlerweile) sehr gut - in früheren Bewertungen steht gelegentlich das Gegenteil. Das Haus bietet jede Voraussetzung für einen gelungenen Urlaub, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! ##### Thomas F.

De meeste tijd brachten we door onder de veranda (met zon en schaduw) met uitzicht op het dalletje waarin een groep van twee koeien met hun kalfjes graasden. Heel comfortabel was de slaapkamer met het raam op het oosten, waar de vroege zon ons wekte. We hadden er een heerlijke rustige vakantie. ##### Connie S.

Rust en Natuur Wat een geweldige plek om te zijn, De omgeving is ontzettend rustig, en daarbij ontzettend goed bereikbaar. Voor buiten zitten is er altijd keus voor koele schaduw of lekkere zon. Voorbijgaande herten en reeën hebben wij meerdere malen gespot in het weiland voor het huis. Het huis is verder goed ingericht en uitgerust. In de keuken nooit iets gemist. SUPER in hoofdletters. What a great place to be, The area is very quiet, and very easily accessible. For sitting outside there is always a choice for cool shade or nice sun. We have spotted passing deer and roe deer several times in the meadow in front of the house. The house is also well furnished and equipped. Never missed anything in the kitchen. SUPER in capital letters. Quel bel endroit pour être, Le quartier est très calme et très facilement accessible. Pour s'asseoir à l'extérieur, il y a toujours le choix entre une ombre fraîche ou un beau soleil. Nous avons aperçu plusieurs fois des cerfs et des chevreuils qui passaient dans le pré devant la maison. La maison est également bien meublée et équipée. Jamais rien manqué dans la cuisine.

Die Ankunft und die Abreise waren völlig unkompliziert. Die Ausstattung , besonders in der Küche, ist hervorragend, die Betten sind sehr bequem und wir haben alles sehr sauber vorgefunden. Da wir wunderbares Sommerwtter hatten, haben wir besonders die überdachte Terrasse mit Blick in den liebevoll gestalteten Garten genossen. Insgesamt hatten wir einen sehr angenehmen Urlaub in absolut ruhiger Umgebung. Wer die ansprechende Naturlandschaft und die landestypischen kleinen, blumengeschmückten Dörfer in Burgund zu schätzen weiß, wird sich in Cherizet-Le Vernay ganz sicher wohlfühlen!
