Aux Jours Heureux

A small rural hamlet adjacent to the owners' cereal farm, nestled in pleasant, unspoilt countryside, close to several protected natural sites classified as "Natura 2000 zones" for the quality of their ecosystems.

On the borders of Bresse Louhannaise & Bourguignonne - birthplace of the famous AOC Bresse poultry - this magnificent, unspoilt region is rich in renowned gastronomic traditions and highly varied landscapes, combining vast bocage plains dotted with ponds, forests, meadows and the mountainous foothills of the Jura massif. Ideally located on the Jura border, at the crossroads of Bresse, Ain, Mâconnais & Tournugeois-Clunisois (labelled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire"), not far from the world-famous South Burgundy vineyards (Côtes Mâconnaises, Côtes Chalonnaises & Côtes de Beaune / various wine routes to explore).

Florence & Laurent are both farmers and cereal growers (their farm is just a stone's throw from the Holiday cottage, and you can join them on an interesting and entertaining tour of the grounds). They open the doors to an authentic, renovated 19th century Bresse farmhouse, nestled in the Countryside. Peace and quiet in a peaceful little rural residential hamlet nestled on the edge of fields and meadows, in a pleasantly undulating, bucolic and verdant countryside setting, a stone's throw from several forests (including the nearby Bois des Claies). Just 2 km from the heart of the village of Flacey-en-Bresse, with its city stadium and mini playground for Kids. Spacious, comfortable Holiday cottage. Pleasant contemporary country style combined with the restful, relaxing atmosphere of an old country home. Large exposed gravel terrace "sur cour", complemented by a traditional sheltered passageway (running alongside the house). Enclosed grounds include a large courtyard (literally a natural petanque court!) & a small garden area. Beautiful, unobstructed views over the gentle Countryside with the Jura mountains in the background.
