A friendly, generous, big old house with not an ounce of pretension. Big families will adore gathering here to have fun and unwind

Spread out over a large living room with lots of sofas and chairs. With the wood-burner flickering on chilly nights, wooden floors gleaming and colourful rugs and walls this will be a very happy place to be. Upstairs is the piano room, a great bright space with more seating, books and games. Mostly you'll be outdoors, eating at a long table in the gravelled courtyard. Play boules, ping pong, light up the lovely old wood-fired bread/pizza oven; cool off in the saltwater pool with views of fields from the sun loungers.

Bedrooms are spread out upstairs, all different, all charming and colourful with some antique wallpapers remaining, paints handmade by owner Lorna, and vintage or antique furniture. The big kitchen is a pleasure to work in with a range cooker, lots of space and doors to the back courtyard for outdoor meals.

You're on the edge of a pretty village - there's no bakery but Lorna and Andrew are happy to deliver your morning bread and croissants to you if you'd like.

Andrew & Lorna Kirkwood:

Reconnect with nature. Fling open your windows to stunning birdsong. Converse with Charolais cattle whilst lounging by the pool Hide away with a book in the lavoir garden. If you're lucky you'll see deer or wild boar on the hills beyond the house at dusk.
Lots of opportunity for outdoor pursuits. The house is just 2 minutes walk from the Canal de Bourgogne and it's towpath perfect for cycling, walking or running. Lakes are on the doorstep for wild swimming and nautical fun - try Lac de Pont or the Morvan.
Explore the little discovered region of Auxois, it's medieval villages and towns. Flavigny sur Ozerain perched on a hill boasts stunning views, bars and restaurants and a sweet factory. Semur en Auxois is a must with its cobbled streets and Sunday market
Have a go at making woodfired pizzas in the original bread oven - Lorna and Andrew can give you tips as learnt from Gill Meller during his stay. Lay out a banquet on the large outdoor table, drink rosé from Domaine Flavigny Alesia or BBQ a côte de boeuf .
Feast on local produce - goats cheese from down the road, beef from the fields around. Shop at Dijon market (home of mustard and cassis) Head to Beaune for some wine tasting. Dine out at our favourite, La Fontaignotte or the famous Loiseau in Saulieu.
Discover the secrets of this wonderful house. Ask us about the US soldiers, the hidden love letters or the the magic of the Bibliotheque. Kids will love exploring the outbuildings and making dens. Marigny has a charming 12 century chateau 10 mins walk away
