6 Bedroom Place in Saint-Malo-en-Donziois

Our renovated farmhouse with large outdoor swimming pool (with safety fence), heated and available for use from mid-May to mid-October - is set in a tranquil hamlet surrounded by countryside, and is situated at the heart of the hamlet behind the old lavoir, where the people of the community used to come to wash their clothes. The only noise you are likely to encounter will be from the passing tractors and cows. At night you can sit on the beautiful terrace under the pergola and enjoy star-gazing, undisturbed by any competing light. The terrace benefits from outdoor dining and lounging furniture and lighting, and a barbecue. In the daytime keep a lookout for the buzzards, rabbits, and deer that appear both in the garden and in the surrounding fields. The house, formerly two farmhouses and two barns, has been renovated to a high standard with original features throughout but all modern conveniences such as underfloor heating and quality fittings in the spacious and well-equipped kitchen and four bathrooms and downstairs toilet. The kitchen has a double-oven and grill, plate-warming oven, dish-washer, food-mixer, two coffee machines (capsule style and filter), Raclette machine, extensive cooking and baking equipment and a large dining table and chairs, plus two high chairs. In the separate utility room, there is a washing machine and dryer plus an iron/ironing board. The house has six bedrooms. These consist of four doubles, one quadruple (double bed with two single beds (one more in the nature of a child's bed), one room (through which access to two of the double rooms is necessary) with bunk beds and a single folding bed, a downstairs bedroom with a double bed and two rooms (the TV room and playroom) also benefit from double sofa-beds for the larger groups. The TV room has a television and a DVD player. In the playroom there is a desk and a children's table and chairs, with lots of toys, puzzles, table football and board (and other) games. The house has one fixed cot and one travel cot for guests' use. The three upstairs double bedrooms are all en suite, with bathroom 3 benefiting from a large corner bath, separate shower and two sinks. Both of the other en suite bathrooms have a toilet, sink and bath with integrated shower, and heated towel rails. The quadruple bedroom is located near the fourth full bathroom, down a small staircase: that bathroom has a toilet, sink and bath with shower.
In the very large sitting room, which is open to the beamed roof above and with a galleried landing around, is plenty of space for relaxing and, in the colder months, enjoying the lovely open log fire. In the mezzanine gallery above, is an additional relaxing area with TV/Wii, a DVD/video player and PlayStation 4. The very large garden and terrace with large heated swimming pool (open for use mid-May through to mid-October), is perfect for enjoying a barbecue and relaxing in total calm, or for watching the children playing on the climbing frame/swing set.
The house is in a lovely location for gentle or longer, more challenging, bike rides (we have some bikes available for borrowing though they are basic and old; we try to keep them maintained but no promises!), for trips into the wine country of Pouilly and Sancerre or simply for relaxing! Day trips to Vezelay and into the Morvan forest are also highly recommended for nature and food lovers alike!
In the winter months, the house is very atmospheric, when you have a blazing log fire and brisk walks in the countryside. Lots of fun indoors but also for the children making camps outside in the garden. We have an artificial Christmas tree (albeit a bit old!) for guests to borrow, together with some ornaments but feel free to bring more. This is a house that you can make look like a Christmas movie :)

Summary: We stayed at this property for a week this August as an extended family group of 10. It is very spacious with bedrooms spread over 3 floors of the house. It is very well modernised with four bathrooms which are all on the first floor. The lounge is beautiful and stylish; the kitchen is very well equipped with a farmhouse table which comfortably sat all ten of us. The grounds are extensive with plenty of room for games. The children loved all the outside facilities and used the swimming pool every day. We loved the peace and quiet of the countryside, it is approximately 3 miles to the nearest boulangerie and small Spar, about 10 miles to Donzy where larger supermarkets can be found. While staying at the property we enjoyed day trips to Vézelay, Sancerre and Pouilly sur Loire, all within easy driving distance. We had a wonderful week!

Summary: We were after a large property for 16 (8 adults and 8 children). This property was absolutely ideal with room to spare. Located in a lovely part of France well away from everything in a small hamlet yet not too far from shops and amenities. The house is well equipped and ideal for young children with their own play room equipped with masses of toys and games. Huge well equipped kitchen with large fridge and freezer. We were lucky with the weather and able to make full use of the massive patio for evening meals every night; though had we needed to be inside there was a large lounge to relax in. The owner was most helpful and responded quickly in answering any queries and questions throughout.

Summary: We stayed for a week, extended family holiday which included 6 adults & 4 children ages 10, 7, 4 & 18months. The house was excellent. All rooms were clean, facilities were great & very modern. Owners have considered everything which meant the kids had plenty to keep them busy, both inside & out, while us adults could relax in the very quiet garden. We took a paddling pool so the kids had somewhere to splash about - a good idea as we had temperatures over 35 degrees for most of the week! The kitchen was great - very large so we could all eat together round the table & it had everything you'll need & more. One of the best parts of the holiday was star gazing at night (no light pollution so this was unbeliverable) with the fire pit going & hot chocolate. We all came home very relaxed indeed!!! There are some excellent areas to explore fairly close by if you want to get out & the lake nearby keep us busy one afternoon - a nice change to a swim in the sea. An excellent holiday, in an excellent house - would not hesitate recommending this house to anyone.

Summary: The house is very well equipped, large and very suitable for groups with children. The garden is huge and the kids had the time of their lives on the trampoline, on the swing, on their bikes and in the playroom. Too bad you need the car for everything, but the fact that it's very remote also has its charme. Vezelay, Sancerre, Morvan, Cosne are worth a visit! Would definitely come again.

Summary: The house is well equipped and has a lot of space. You can easily host a group of 14 persons. The owner is very helpful to provide information and guidance. The surrounding is really lovely and you can do nice bike trips, visit beautiful villages of the area and do some vine tasting near the Loire. You need to have a car for grocery shopping. Plage Etang at the camping site of Varzy is a good option for swimming. You can go by bike in 1 - 1,5 hours. Definitely recommend it and would go again!
