Le Meet'Oyen

Elegant country loft! This former garage has been tastefully and stylishly converted into a comfortable holiday home, nestled in a peaceful rural hamlet on the edge of meadows, between the banks of the Saône and the wooded foothills of the Massif Sud Bourgogne, 7 km from the charming wine-growing village of Lugny ("the little capital of the Haut-Mâconnais" with numerous shops and the leading Burgundy wine-producing cellar), 8 km from the shopping village of Pont de Vaux (supermarket & river marina linked to the Saône) & 11 km from Tournus (world-renowned abbey site / A6 & all amenities on site). Very pleasant countryside & natural hilly surroundings, combining wine-growing & agricultural landscapes, adjoining the vineyards of the Haut Mâconnais (first vines 3 km away) & several protected areas classified as "Zones Natura 2000" for their rich ecosystems. Privileged location on the route of the Romanesque church circuit, close to numerous signposted "balades vertes" hiking trails (a vast network winding between vineyards & nature, connected to the GR76, which can be explored throughout the region), 2 km from the renowned GTM mountain bike circuit (Grand Tour du Massif Sud Bourgogne / linked to an extensive mountain bike area for all levels on the massif), 2.5 km from the greenway along the banks of the Saône, 4 km from a 28 km "circuit VTT coup de cœur", 4 km from a 42 km "Boucle Vélo coup de cœur" and 10 km from the "Route de Vins de Bourgogne". On the Ain border, in the heart of the Mâconnais & its famous vineyards (AOC in Chardonnay), at the crossroads of Tournugeois-Clunisois (labelled "Pays d'Art et d'Histoire"), Chalonnais & Bresse Bourguignonne, not far from the Côtes Chalonnaises & Beaujolais vineyards. Ideal location for exploring: 11 km from the La Salle golf course, 16 km from the medieval town of Brancion, 21 km from Mâcon (Mâcon Loché train station 29 km away), 27 km from the sumptuous Roche de Solutré landscape jewel (classified as a "Grand Site de France"), 28 km from the illustrious abbey town of Cluny, 37 km from Louhans, 38 km from Chalon-sur-Saône (classified as a "Ville d'Art et d'Histoire") & 45 km from Bourg-en-Bresse.

Alain & Paula welcome you in an old garage which they have carefully revisited with great style in an atypical mini "country loft" steeped in charm, nestled in peace on the edge of meadows, in the heart of a peaceful little rural hamlet with a beautiful Romanesque priory chapel. Soothing surrounding landscapes, in the hollow of a bucolic hilly setting of gentle mountains combining hillsides of vineyards (very close), fields & meadows and wooded hills, nestled on the first mountains of the northern Mâconnais a stone's throw from the banks of the Saône, at the foot from the Montagne de Burgy (wild mountain range offering an exceptional panoramic belvedere up to Mont-Blanc on a clear day!). A wine-growing village with the "Viré Clessé" appellation, Montbellet has a rich heritage to discover through the hamlets (Romanesque church and chapel from the 12th & 11th centuries, several castles, particularly medieval ones, numerous mills, washhouses, remains of a 13th century commandery…) & enjoys a magnificent unspoilt countryside and natural setting.
