Christelle and Patrice welcome you to an elegant 18th-century building, built partly on the remains of a very rare and authentic 11th-century fortified castle, of which a watchtower still stands. Steeped in history and fully restored, it nestles peacefully on the immediate edge of pastures and meadows, just steps from a small pond. At the edge of the heart of the tranquil, typical little village of Sivignon, nestled on the foothills of the famous Butte de Suin, which rises to 600m altitude on the watershed between the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean, this iconic panoramic sentinel of Saône-et-Loire offers a truly exceptional 360° view, all the way to Mont Blanc on a clear day (a local saying even claims that you can see 52 church steeples!). Total tranquility in the heart of the Cluny countryside, nestled on a vast, open plateau of bucolic rolling countryside dominated by the wooded ridges of the many surrounding wild forest massifs (perfect for hiking or mountain biking), in the heart of a magnificent natural area classified and protected as a "Natura 2000 Zone" (for the quality of its rich ecosystem).
