Discover Les Chevêches aux Yeux d'Or, a charming gîte in southern Burgundy, in Taizé. A lovingly renovated 19th-century farmhouse, this haven of peace offers 2 spacious bedrooms, a 400 m² enclosed garden and uninterrupted views over the countryside. Perfect for families and nature lovers, it combines authenticity with modern comfort.
Nestling on a promontory offering splendid panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, overlooking the beautiful green valley of the Grosne (a bucolic little river full of fish) running along the foothills of the southern Burgundy massif, the village is world-famous for being home to one of the largest ecumenical Christian monastic communities in the world, now numbering more than a hundred brothers (12th-century Romanesque church, medieval tower & remains of an ancient castle also to be discovered on site). Enchanting, restful and relaxing countryside. Comfortable gîte. Warm, contemporary country style. Pleasant, shaded terrace (with plants and flowers) complemented by a delightful, intimate 400m² enclosed garden planted with trees (including an outdoor relaxation area) adjoining the bocage (with peaceful neighbours, depending on the season, including cows and horses).
Nearby activities:
- Hiking : There are numerous signposted footpaths for exploring the Cluny countryside.
- Voie verte: Situated just 300 metres from the gîte, ideal for cycling or walking.
- Cultural discoveries: The village of Taizé is world-famous for its ecumenical monastic community. Nearby, you can visit Cluny Abbey, the medieval town of Cluny and other historic sites in the region.
