A delightful traditional 19th-century sheepfold, carefully converted into a gentle holiday home - nestling in a panoramic "belvedere" on a hillside on a southern slope - set in the heart of the Countryside in the Haut-Clunisois region, in the midst of meadows at the edge of the woods, 12 km from the charming, typical market town of Matour, which has been awarded the "Station verte de vacances" label (with a mini supermarket, numerous amenities and a remarkable range of sports and leisure facilities) & 17 km from the illustrious abbey town of Cluny, which has been awarded the prestigious "Patrimoine Européen" label. Absolute tranquility, in the heart of a magnificent natural setting of gentle mountains, combining bucolic rolling bocages & vast wild forests (protected as a "Zone Natura 2000" & ZNIEFF for its rich ecosystems), overlooking the verdant Grosne valley in the "Petite Suisse du Mâconnais" & "Verts Vallons de Sud Bourgogne", facing the foothills of the Beaujolais Massif (with its vast signposted mountain-biking area), extending the sumptuous landscape of the Roches de Solutré & Vergisson, designated a "Grand Site de France", not far from the "Saint-Cyr" & "Signal de la Mère Boitier" mountains (the highest peaks in Southern Burgundy) and the iconic "Butte de Suin" (offering a literally exceptional 360° view, as far as Mont-Blanc on a clear day). Ultra-privileged location on the routes of several "balades vertes" hiking trails (a vast network of identical hiking trails criss-crossing the region, to be explored on foot or mountain bike), close to the Romanesque church circuit, 5 km from the "Cycloroute71" (Tour de la Saône-et-Loire by bike), 6 km from the GR76, 7 km from the GR7, 14 km from the Voie Verte of the "Grande Boucle de Bourgogne du Sud" (& from the remarkable "Tunnel du Bois Clair", France's longest former railway tunnel open to a Voie Verte at 1.6 km), 17 km of the renowned "Grand Tour du Massif Sud Bourgogne" mountain bike circuit with "VTT FFC" certification (GTM linked to a vast "VTT area" of the same type criss-crossing the South Burgundy massif), about 15 km from the first vineyards of the Côtes Mâconnaises (& the famous "Val Lamartinien") & the "Route des Vins de Bourgogne" and about 30 km from the Beaujolais vineyards (first vineyard in the world to be recognized as a "UNESCO World Geopark").
