Peace and tranqility in the French country-side
A lovely Gite with plenty of room for a family of four (best if you are not too tall though as some doorways are 3/4 size). Easy driving distance to surrounding points of attraction including scenic local villages and great vineyards ie the town of Chablis. If you like doing your own cooking as we did, there are fabulous local markets and fresh produce vendors giving access to everything required to whip up your own provincial french feast. We visited in late May when all the fields were a sea of yellow and green from the wheat and rapeseed crops. An area I would definitely go back to and this is a beautiful little cottage to use as the 'home away from home'.
Gîte conforme au descriptif simple, rustique avec ce qui est nécessaire. Village très calme. Extérieur agréable.
Karen est une hôte très chaleureuse et arrangeante.
Nous avons passé un excellent week-end à refaire sans hésiter !
Very accommodating hosts, tranquil and good location
This was an authentic feeling , well appointed small Gite, with plenty of character and its own private outdoor garden space. The hosts were very helpful and accommodating and we had a very pleasant few days, exploring the local area.
La région est très belle, le gîte original et confortable, l’accueil et l’attention de la propriétaire extrêmement chaleureux. Nous recommandons. Fanny et Jean-Marc
Lovely characterful property in a quiet rural location. Our hosts were very welcoming and friendly and made our stay there very comfortable. Great place to relax and unwind, exactly what we needed.

met 4 volwassenen een beetje krap
De foto is genomen aan de achterkant van het huis en is daardoor misleidend. Het huis is authentiek wat tot gevolg heeft dat de deuren allemaal laag zijn. Je moet er als volwassene met een normale lengte dus bukken. Niet erg maar wel goed om te weten. Verder een fijne plek om te verblijven.

Cozy cottage in a country-side France
We greatly enjoyed our stay in La Poterne Gite in Stigny, Burgundy.
Our hostess (Karen) was very friendly and helpful. The house is very comfortable and clean. It includes all necessary amenities which made self-catering very easy and not time-consuming at all.
The house is very old, but in perfect condition, it wonderfully conveys the atmosphere of the country-side.
The house has a completely private garden and is located in a quiet and picturesque village. The neighbors are very friendly, but except for the hosts, nobody speaks English not a little bit, bear that in mind.
The village is surrounded by forest and fields, which are perfectly suited for walking. It easily reached by car, and parking is abundant.
We recommend the La Poterne to anybody who seeks to enjoy the quite magic of rural France and escape the buzz of big cities.
