'There are not enough superlatives to describe the contemplative life we found here. We admired the intelligence displayed in the renovation of the house maintaining the integrity of the original and making changes that only enhanced the pleasures of the house. We wish you well and continuing enjoyment in the home you lovingly labored to bring back to life for the pleasure of all who reside here.'
Mr and Mrs D, New York
'This house is a splendid place to spend a week of family-time, away from our normal fast-paced, hectic lifestyle. The pool was just perfect for cooling off in the intense Burgundy sunshine. An experience not to be missed, thank-you for sharing your house!'
Bain Family, Cambridgeshire, UK
'Fantastic house, incredible garden and a beautiful setting. We have enjoyed the surrounding towns, Toucy and Vezelay especially and wine tasting in Chablis is not to be missed. Thank you so much for providing such a delightful residence.'
The Johnsons, Bolton, UK
Burgundy is the heart of French history, food and wine. With its castles and châteaux, museums and churches, vineyards and beautiful landscapes, it is like traveling in paradise on earth. In Burgundy buildings, food and wine are in complete harmony
Robyn August 2017 :
« We had a wonderful week staying in Jon's beautiful home. It's even more picturesque and quintessentially French than the pictures show and the grounds are enormous. Lots of space for two young families and very well equipped with everything we could possibly need, even a baby changing mat was offered! The kitchen is brilliant and has all the kit you might need, including some impressive Japanese knives (watch out - they're sharp!) and a lovely BBQ area to spend lazy evenings. Jon was a great host, offering lots of suggestions for things to do in the area and very prompt to response. The housekeeper, Anne-Marie, lives 2mins away and was delightful, she even came to help us with the gas for the hob one evening. Thank you Jon, we had a lovely time. »
