La Sâne

Rare & literally exceptional! Comfortable, spacious contemporary house nestled in the quiet Bresse countryside, on a vast 30-hectare private estate - including a large forest and fishing pond - set in a sublime, unspoilt setting of greenery & wild nature, 8 km from Louhans (all amenities & small river marina on site), capital of the Bresse region, famous for its iconic medieval shopping street with its 157 arcades, one of the most remarkable of its kind in France and Europe (also renowned for its "Monday market", one of the largest retail poultry markets in France, and a "Remarkable Taste Site"). Absolutely magical setting & site - ultra-privileged - close to several protected sites classified as "Natura 2000 zones", not far from the Romanesque church circuit and marked "balade verte" hiking trails, 8 km from the voie verte & a "coup de cœur" bicycle loop (35 kms) and 25 km from the first vineyards of the Mâconnais & Jura (various wine routes to discover). Right in the heart of the Bresse Bourguignonne region - birthplace of the famous AOC Bresse poultry - this superb, unspoilt area is rich in renowned gastronomic traditions and highly varied landscapes, combining vast plains dotted with ponds, forests, rivers and meadows with the mountainous foothills of the nearby Jura massif. A prime location at the crossroads of the Ain & Jura regions, as well as the rich territories of Bresse de l'Ain & Jurassienne, Chalonnais, Mâconnais & Tournugeois-Clunisois (labelled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire"). 21 km from Cuisery ("the Book Village"), 22 km from Cuiseaux ("the Painters' Village"), 26 km from Tournus (world-renowned abbey site), 32 km from Lons-le-Saunier, 48 km from Bourg-en-Bresse, 52 km from Chalon-sur-Saône ("Ville d'Art et d'Histoire") and 55 km from Mâcon (Mâcon Loché TGV station 59 km away). Possibility of renting the 2 other "unusual" gîtes on the estate (a cabin on stilts coiled up on the pond and a "tipi"-type chalet nestling in the forest) for a total capacity of 15 people. The perfect spot for nature lovers and for a totally unplugged getaway for all the family!

Managers of the "Ferme des Animaux des Petits Bois" located 12 km away (show farm with over a hundred species of domestic animals and activities for the whole family), Sonia and Jean-Baptiste open the doors to a spacious country house nestled in a sublime, unspoilt setting of nature & greenery, on the edge of woods & meadows.
