Lespalier - CLUNY - Gîte

Authentic 16th century town house steeped in history, once owned by the nurses of the Hôtel Dieu adjoining the gîte, then by the family doctor of the famous French poet, writer & politician Alphonse de Lamartine, a true figure of Southern Burgundy. Charming & intimate enclosed garden, planted with trees & flowers, located out of sight & adjacent to that of the owner who will gladly open it to you to visit her henhouse (egg collection possible). Located on the edge of a quiet street bordering the center of the picturesque world-renowned abbey city, the spiritual heart of medieval Europe with the very rare and prestigious "European Heritage" label for its inestimable historical heritage. Cluny, a powerful monastic order of the medieval West, offers exceptional proof of its former glory (majestic 10th/18th century abbey sites, medieval fortifications & towers, Romanesque & Gothic residences, Roman baths, etc.) and benefits from a magnificent preserved setting, nestled in a charming valley on the wooded foothills of the South Burgundy massif, a gentle countryside rich in splendid panoramas to discover during walks in the heart of nature (alternating vineyard hillsides, groves, wooded hills & rivers). Very comfortable gîte. Warm, opulent & refined "bourgeois" character mixed with a neat "flea market" spirit, enhanced by the historic soul of the place (fireplace mantel, terracotta tiles, stone lintels, French ceiling, etc.). Cozy atmosphere. Lots of charm & character. Pleasant sheltered balcony-terrace. Composition: Semi-detached town house. Wifi. Gas central heating + fireplace. Duplex gîte.
