les Reppes

A true haven of peace and relaxation “in the heart of the meadows”! A charming, authentic, and characterful 19th-century traditional Bresse farmhouse, meticulously restored into an ultra-comfortable, charming vacation home—featuring a beautiful 6x4m Piscine and a pétanque court — nestled peacefully on a pleasant 2,000-square-meter property, in the heart of a vast 10-hectare agricultural and natural estate, 6 km from the picturesque market town of Saint-Germain-du-Plain (with plenty of local amenities, including a small supermarket). Complete peace and tranquility nestled in the unspoiled Bresse countryside in the heart of the Saône Valley (partly protected as a ZNIEFF for its rich ecosystems), not far from the riverbanks (protected as a “Natura 2000” site) as well as the famous vineyards of Burgundy—a soothing landscape of gently rolling plains that blend nature and agriculture, between wooded meadows dotted with ponds and rivers and vast stretches of wild forest. Just a stone’s throw from the Romanesque church circuit, close to various nature trails (complemented by an extensive network of marked hiking trails known as “balades vertes” crisscrossing the region, suitable for walking or mountain biking), 3 km from the Bressane Greenway, connected to “Cycloroute 71” (the Saône-et-Loire Cycling Tour), 11 km from the “Voie Bleue” (running along the Saône), which connects to the “Grande Boucle de la Bourgogne du Sud” greenway, about 30 km from the Vineyards of the Côtes Chalonnaises, about 40 km from the world-famous Côtes de Beaune and Hautes Côtes de Beaune (“Route des Grands Vins,” which extends the illustrious “Route des Grands Crus” through the legendary wine-growing villages of Puligny-Montrachet, Pommard, Meursault…), and about 50 km from the vineyards of the Jura. A prime location on the border of the Burgundian Bresse and southern Chalonnais, not far from the foothills of the Jura Mountains, at the crossroads of the Tournugeois-Clunisois region (designated a “Pays d’Art et d’Histoire”), the Pays Beaunois, and the Côte d’Or. It is 18 km from Cuisery, listed among France’s very exclusive eight “Villages du Livre,” 20 km from Louhans (the historic capital of Bresse and home to its famous “Rue aux 157 arcades,” an iconic medieval shopping street), 21 km from Tournus, 24 km from Chalon-sur-Saône (designated a “City of Art and History”), 26 km from Verdun-sur-le-Doubs (a Marina nestled at the confluence of the Doubs and Saône rivers), 31 km from the charming medieval wine-growing town of Givry, 33 km from the medieval village of Brancion, 40 km from Saint-Gengoux-le-National (a major “Cluniac Site” designated as one of the “Cités de Caractère de Bourgogne-Franche-Comté”), 41 km from Chagny, renowned for its Sunday morning gourmet market, 43 km from Seurre, 47 km from Lons-le-Saunier, 50 km from Beaune (the world-famous fortified city, “capital of Burgundy wines”), and 54 km from the illustrious abbey town of Cluny. A rejuvenating “haven” brimming with charm and serenity—the perfect spot for an ultra-relaxing “green getaway” with the whole family, complete with lounging by the Piscine and lively games of pétanque as a bonus!

Carole & Xavier (sheep farmers practicing “traditional sustainable farming”) welcome you to a charming, authentic, and characterful 19th-century traditional Bresse farmhouse (of the “longère” type), which they have carefully restored themselves. It is nestled in a quiet at the end of a cul-de-sac in a small rural residential hamlet, on a vast 10-hectare agricultural and natural property that is home to their peaceful Suffolk and Charolais sheep (grazing just a stone’s throw away, living outdoors all year round!). Absolute peace and quiet, nestled on the edge of a vast plateau of fields and wooded meadows, in the heart of the unspoiled, bucolic Bresse countryside (partly protected within various ZNIEFF areas for its rich flora and fauna), not far from the banks of the Saône (a paradise for anglers and kayakers, a natural area protected as a “Natura 2000” site for its remarkable ecosystems), a magnificent landscape of gently rolling plains combining lush, wooded meadows dotted with ponds and rivers and vast stretches of wild forest, blending nature and agriculture. Spacious, very comfortable holiday cottage. Spacious 50m² living area. Warm country charm with contemporary touches. Lots of character. Cozy and ultra-comfortable. A soothing, zen-like, and gentle atmosphere. Two sheltered terraces, one of which is “open” with unobstructed views of the meadows.
