Villers la Faye enjoys a highly central location right in the middle of Burgundy's most prestigious vineyards in the Côte d'Or district. The medieval town of Beaune - the center of wine-making for Burgundy - is a ten minute drive away, as is the charming town of Nuits-Saint-Georges. Dijon is only half an hour north. Endless wine tasting, gastronomic adventures and historic sights are at your doorstep. And in the village are a bakery, small grocery, café and simple restaurant, all just steps away.

This sweet cottage with stucco and stone façade and blue shutters has its origins in the 17th century. Belonging to the owner's family for several generations, the single-story cottage has been lovingly renovated both inside and out.

Traditional architectural features such as heavy wood beamed ceilings and exposed stone walls complement beautiful terra cotta tile floors with hand-painted tile insets. The cottage is light and bright decorated with pale yellow walls, attractive contemporary furnishings and antique accents. Modern conveniences include quality appliances and high-speed (Wifi) internet access.

Entry is into the open-plan living room with sitting and dining areas. It's bright and airy thanks to a high ceiling and three skylights. By the old stone fireplace are a blue upholstered sofa with plenty of cushions and a comfortable armchair. At the other end of the room is a well-equipped galley kitchen with wood cabinets, white tile backsplash and all appliances. By the kitchen is the dining area with wood table and chairs for two.

Off the main living room are the bedroom with queen bed and adjacent bathroom with shower. The bedroom is very pretty with its blue and white bedcover, antique side tables and lamps. You'll find plenty of wardrobe space so you can unpack and comfortably settle in. The bathroom has a tiled shower, sink and toilet along with both a washer and a dryer.

Large French doors from the bedroom open to a private courtyard with outdoor lounging chairs and a bistro table set, the ideal spot to enjoy a glass of wine.

A cozy cottage with great charm in a wonderful location for savoring all the best of Burgundy.

Note: Rentals can start on any day of the week, including Sundays. A one week minimum is required, after which extra days may be added on a prorated basis.
