Peaceful residential hamlet nestled in the countryside, a stone's throw from the Seille, the largest river in Bresse Bourguignonne, largely classified as a "Natura 2000 Zone" for its remarkable ecosystem (migratory bird reserve, rare plant species, numerous fish including the famous catfish, wild fauna…) & waterway within superb landscapes (pleasure cruising, canoeing, fishing, hiking….). Quiet environment in the hollow of a delightful rural & natural setting preserved by groves & forests, adjoining the typical village of Saint-Usuge with a landscaped fishing pond (picnic tables & playground), known for its originality 16th century church in the Franche-Comté style.

Lovely gite spoilt by a couple of things
The majority of the gite has been beautifully refurbished but it has a small inconvenient WC and a truly dreadful shower - small and with a tatty curtain. We saw the proprietor for about five minutes when we arrived and then not at all for the rest of our week's stay, despite the proprietors living in the adjacent property.
