La Sâne

Rare and truly exceptional! A comfortable, spacious contemporary home nestled in the heart of the Bresse countryside, in absolute tranquility, on a vast 30-hectare private estate—featuring, among other things, a large Forest and a Fishing Pond —set within a sublime, unspoiled setting of greenery and wilderness, 8 km from Louhans (all amenities and a small river Marina on site), the capital of the Bresse region known for its iconic medieval shopping street with “157 arcades”, one of the most remarkable of its kind in both France and Europe (also highly renowned for its “Monday market,” designated a “Remarkable site du Goût” and one of France’s largest retail poultry markets). An absolutely magical setting—in a truly privileged location—near several protected sites designated as “Natura 2000 Zones,” not far from the Romanesque church circuit and hiking trails marked as “green walks,” 8 km from the Voie Verte and 25 km from the first Vineyards of the Mâconnais and the Jura (various wine routes to explore). Right in the heart of the Bresse Bourguignonne—the birthplace of the famous Bresse poultry AOC—a superb, unspoiled region rich in renowned culinary traditions and highly varied landscapes combining vast wooded plains dotted with ponds, Forests, rivers, and meadows, and the foothills of the nearby Jura Mountains. A prime location at the crossroads of the Ain and Jura regions, as well as the rich territories of the Bresse de l’Ain and Bresse du Jura, the Chalonnais, the Mâconnais, and the Tournugeois-Clunisois (designated a “Pays d’Art et d’Histoire”). 21 km from Cuisery (“the Village of Books”), 22 km from Cuiseaux (“the Village of Painters”), 26 km from Tournus (a world-renowned abbey site), 32 km from Lons-le-Saunier, 48 km from Bourg-en-Bresse, 52 km from Chalon-sur-Saône (designated a “City of Art and History”), and 55 km from Mâcon (Mâcon Loché TGV station is 59 km away). You can also rent the estate’s two other unusual holiday cottages (a cabin on stilts nestled on the pond and a “teepee”-style Chalet tucked away in the Forest) for a total capacity of 15 people. The perfect “spot” for all nature lovers and for a family getaway where you can truly unplug!

Managers of the "Ferme des Animaux des Petits Bois," located 12 km away (a petting zoo with over a hundred species of domestic animals and activities for the whole family), Sonia and Jean-Baptiste welcome you to a spacious country house nestled in a sublime, unspoiled setting of nature and greenery, on the edge of woods and meadows. A place of absolute peace and a true haven of tranquility in the heart of the Louhanna countryside, set in an absolutely magical and enchanting setting, nestled on a bucolic 30-hectare private estate featuring meadows and a vast Forest (perfectly maintained with a nature trail and a zip line), a 1-hectare fishing pond (no-kill), a river teeming with fish, and a fully equipped kids’ playground (slide, climbing wall, cabin, etc.).
