Quiet nice house with stunning view
My wife and I prefer quietness in the countryside - and that is what we found. The cottage is well equipped and from the terrace you can see for miles. If your French is not that good it is convenient to have an English speaking landlady. Although she lives next door she is very discrete. We are a couple aged around 60 and just outside the gate we found a varied landscape ideal for biking on calm roads or walking on marked tracks. There are several viewpoints in the area and cultural sites, e. g. in Cluny, Macon and Autun. We can highly recommend the place.

A wonderful recreative and inspiring stay
The holyday cottage is wonderful for friends of old houses in combitation with modern convenience in a harmonic landscape. The house is ample, aesthetic furnished and also a pleasent and clean stay at cold and rainy weather. The heating is good, the kitchen good appointed, sitting on the patio and looking into the landscape is the greatest. Everything is as discribed, sometimes even better. Unfortunately we could not swim in the pond. Our charming landlady Victoria gave us any information we needed, hints for good restaurants and maps for hiking. We found guides and brochures in the cottage for our planing. We thank Victoria that we could take part of her little paradiase. May be we will come again.

Cosy little cottage in the french countryside
The cottge is loacates in the middle of french countyside sorrounded by horses and cows grazing. We loved the view over the hills and had gorgeous sunsets in pink and orange( august). The cottage is well maintained and has a huge equipped kitchen with a gas stove!**** Deck chairs, table+chairs and sunshade, 2xBBQs what do you need more? There is a good road-connection to the city Cluny, where you can go food shoppping, buy a baguette or a newspaper and visit the old abbey and museum. The landlady lives nearby and is there for you if you need help or anything else. She has two adorable white labradors! We enjoyed our stay very much with everyday BBQ, relaxing, sunbathing and the quitness off of the big city life!

Tranquillity and sunshine in rural Burgundy.
The cottage is fabulously equipped with everything one would need for a superbly tranquil and restful holiday. Victoria had really taken on board the needs of her guests and even provided us with two wonderfully attentive dogs who appeared punctually at meal times on our terrace! We of course succumbed to their French friendliness and shared the odd meal with them but not the wonderful Cremant de Bourgoine that we found in the local supermarche. We had a super stay in this lovely property which was perfect for a couple who love tranquility and easy access to the many interesting Abbeyes and chateaux in the region. The Abbeys at Cluny and Para Le Monial, the castle at Brancion and the Rock of Solutre are absolute places one must visit. There are great Burgundy reds to have in abundance and Charolais beef for barbecues to purchase in all supermarkets. Naturally we felt that we had a duty to support these local producers! We visited the Saturday market in Beaune which was about an hours drive away and bought the most amazing Goats cheese, artisan bread and charcuterie produce before visiting the Hotel de Deu or hospital with its amazing roof and history. For the visitor who wants both a restful setting and easy access to historical sites Les Marions is perfect!

Paradies für Ruhesuchende
Wir haben eine wunderbare Woche zu zweit im Cottage verbracht. Die Lage ist ein Traum, wenn man Ruhe und Natur sucht. Das Cottage ist gemütlich und stilvoll eingerichtet; es bietet alles (und mehr) für zwei Personen. Victoria ist eine sehr sympathische und aufmerksame Gastgeberin. Für Wander- und Unternehmungslustige hat sie viele Prospekte und Wanderkarten bereitgelegt. Thank you, Victoria, for everything!

havre de paix et lieu magique
nous nous sommes tout de suite sentis chez nous tant le lieu est accueillant et que Victoria a tout mis en oeuvre pour faire de cette maison un lieu chaleureux où aucun détail n'a été oublié. Décoration agréable, non ostentatoire, matériaux naturels, cuisine très pratique avec vue magnifique sur la vallée.....Chambre spacieuse aux tons doux. Le paysage environnant est tout simplement magique. Pour les amoureux des prés verdoyants, des fleurs champêtres, des grenouilles et des oiseaux ......

Ruhe und Erholung im Burgund
Wir haben über Neujahr eine Woche im Cottage verbracht. Das Cottage ist sehr gut ausgestattet und mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet. Sie wohnen in einem ehemaligen Nebengebäude (Stallungen und Backhaus) das seinen rustikalen Charme nach der Renovierung beibehalten hat. Die Lage des Hauses ist ruhig und landschaftlich sehr schön. Victoria ist eine sehr aufmerksame, hilfsbereite und nette Vermieterin, die sie allerdings kaum bemerken werden obwohl sie im Haus nebenan wohnt. Wenn sie Ruhe suchen und die kleinen Ortschaften des Burgund erkunden wollen sind sie dort genau richtig. Supermärkte und Restaurants erreichen sie in 10-15 Minuten.

Good times/Bad times
This is a difficult review to write. In many ways we loved this place. Victoria was a very helpful host and the apartment itself was well-furnished and comfortable. The location was attractive and quiet. The downside? To say that the internet connection was slow and undependable would on a small scale be like saying the Titanic had a leakage problem. If you want a vacation to escape connectivity, this is your place. However, if you like to keep track of news, communicate with friends, research restaurants and sites, go elsewhere. If we had been aware of the problem, our disappointment would have been less, but the first warning was in the info manual in the the place itself. So, great place IF what you want is to be away from it all.

L'accueil chaleureux de la propriétaire ainsi que de ses deux adorables chiens nous ont permis de passer de très agréables moments. Le gîte est très bien équipé et décoré avec beaucoup de goût, on s'y sent bien ! Nous avons passé de belles vacances reposantes. C'est exactement ce que nous recherchions et nous pensons revenir prochainement car il nous reste encore plein de choses à découvrir dans cette belle région. Yves et Catherine

Well equipped and tranquil gite.
We really enjoyed our stay. Our initial impression was that the gite was very remote, but actually, it was only a few minutes to the nearest town, and the situation of the gite meant that it was completely tranquil. Victoria has provided everything you need, including toilet paper and washing up liquid! The bed was very comfortable, and there was English TV for the evenings. We actually ate at the house frequently during our week as it was so pleasant. Fantastic walks from the door, and easy accessibility by car to Macon, Beaune and our favourite, Cluny. We had some excellent degustations and bought some what we hope will be good wines to be savoured over the year. We would happily return for more exploration of the area. The weather was also superb - wall to wall sunshine!
