Description
Situated on the hill, opposite Frôlois, with a magnificent view of the castle and the valley, in absolute tranquillity and very close to all the sights of Burgundy, architect's house built in natural materials harmoniously into the hillside and glazed over its entire length, for 4 to 6 people, with terrace, pool and grounds of 4000sqm, tastefully furnished: large living room with fireplace + fully equipped kitchen, room with sofa bed, children's room with bunk bed, bedroom with large double bed, bathroom with shower, generous, spacious and bright, at ground level on an area of 100sqm. The whole house is for exclusive use.
It is a modern, functional architect's house with clean lines, natural materials such as wood or the natural stone Massangis, typical of the region, and tasteful design furniture.
All rooms are accessible from the terrace, glazed towards it and lead onto a meadow with trees with a total area of 4000sqm, with no direct vis-à-vis; this offers the possibility of various activities. A tree house with hammock and swing is used for children to play. A planted pergola as sun protection, a sun deck with oak bench and water basin with fish invites you to relax and unwind.
The spacious, light-flooded dining room with kitchen unit and living area with open fireplace communicates with the adjoining reading room with library and sofa bed around the pool and offers a beautiful view on all sides.
Separately, there is a children's room with a step-down bed, which is separated from the bedroom with a large double bed by the bathroom/WC. The entire bathroom with shower is tiled with natural stone. Along the entire length of the house, the rear wall is fitted with built-in cupboards with sliding doors as a spacious storage area. Attached to the entrance area is a storage room with garden furniture.

Arrival/Location
Location and surroundings of object
In the immediate vicinity, adults and children alike will get their money's worth, there are sporting and cultural activities, as well as culinary attractions.
To name just a few examples: Frolois is only 5 km away from Thenissey, where there are various horse riding possibilities, a few kilometres further on at Hauteroche there are great climbing rocks, and a quarter of an hour later you arrive at the charming Flavigny sur Ozerain, situated on the ridge. This is where the popular aniseed sweets are made, where wine is grown and where the famous film "Chocolat" with Juliette Binoche and Johnny Depp was filmed. The route continues along the Canal de Bourgogne, on which you can also take a houseboat or make wonderful tours by bike, to the medieval town of Semur en Auxois. This is always worth a trip, especially as the bathing lake "Lac de Pont" with its water sports facilities is right next door in the forest.
The indoor and outdoor swimming pools in Montbard with its 25m sports pool, wave pool, giant slide for the children and Jacuzzi, massage jets, sauna etc. are also ideal for swimming. Just outside Montbard is the Abbaye de Fontenay, a World Heritage Site, and on the way home you will pass through historic Alesia, with its recently completed Tschumi Interpretation Museum, the new attraction in the region. Pass by the " Chateau de Bussy Rabutin", one of the countless castles in the region, to Frolois, also with its castle on the ridge.
Of course, you can also follow the Burgundy Wine Route, which leads from Chablis via Dijon to Nuits-St-George and Beaune to Mâcon. Or taste the excellent cheese in nearby Epoisses, or the vineyard snails. And from our terrace you can see the Charolais cattle grazing in the valley.
And that's just a taste..
Sports: cycling, swimming, canoeing/ pedal boating/ water skiing, hiking, climbing, horse riding, golf, tennis.
Bathing: Bathing pond in Venary les Laumes, 20min, bathing lake "Lac de Pont" near Semur en Auxois, 40min, situated in the forest with small sandy beach and water sports base, indoor and outdoor swimming pool in Montbard, 30min, with bubblers, massage jets, wave pool and giant slide and 25m swimming pool.

Excerpts from our guestbook:
We felt very comfortable in your wonderful house, the great design and your personal handwriting make it a unique place.
. .it fits together perfectly: a unique house in a unique place.

. . .you have created a beautiful connection between old cultural landscape and modern lifestyle. For us it was a very relaxing holiday with perfect weather. It would be nice to be able to stop time and just enjoy.
M. Flidner 9/2011
Thank you for wonderful days in this dreamlike domicile. What luck that it was possible at such short notice - but unfortunately the time is too short to enjoy everything. But next time we will bring the easel.
PS: Should this modest little house be available for purchase, please contact us with confidence!
...From the very beginning we felt very comfortable in this house, the openness to the green and the view of the village silhouette is simply fantastic...enjoyed the tranquillity and the rare moment when a deer was calmly resting in front of the pond ä
M.+D. Moll-Schmid 6 / 2012
...We immediately fell in love with your holiday home on the internet - and the reality is perhaps even more beautiful...

..We felt very much at home in this little paradise. We were thrilled by the flora and fauna. A picture book summer in Burgundy. After our extensive day trips to the cultural sites of the region, we were welcomed in a well-tempered house with dreamlike views
...We enjoyed the restful quiet and the beautiful surroundings very much, and the ugly buzzword "deceleration" applies here one hundred percent. Of course, we also visited the many sights and made several beautiful bike tours along the Canal de Bourgogne. We also enjoyed the culinary delights and the wine!
...The house is really wonderful, through the large panoramic windows you always have - even in bad weather - the feeling of being outside

Belle vie! - Beautiful life!
Arrived ... thrilled ... and immediately felt comfortable!
The holiday home impresses with its exceptional location, relaxed distant view and heavenly peace. The continuous glass front creates a constant connection with nature, unless you're already on the beautiful and tree-shaded terrace. The house is equipped with everything needed for a relaxed holiday. The clearly structured architecture has pleased us very much and brought joy.
The surroundings offer numerous excursion destinations to small, interesting places, castles, abbeys, etc. Dijon is also worth a visit.
Contact, booking and communication were uncomplicated, friendly and direct.
We would love to come back and gladly recommend the holiday home.

Pure relaxation
This house has found us! Peace and quiet, fantastic view(s), nature, history+architecture - here you can find it all within a small radius. For a fortnight we enjoyed the hectic-free life. In our "collection" of special holiday homes, this wonderful house, pushed into the hillside, with its almost continuous glass front and protective grass roof, occupies an upper rank : ) With still quite cool outside temperatures, we appreciated the warmth of the underfloor heating under the natural stone floor as well as the possible fireplace. In addition, friendly email exchange with the owner and uncomplicated handling - full recommendation from us!

Extraordinary
We spent a wonderful and relaxing week in a very special house - open, welcoming and modern with great taste and design. The full length glass frontage is fantastic, even when washing up and cooking you have a great all round view of the garden , the white grazing Charolais cattle and the village of Frôlois. It is so relaxing to sit on the lovely terrace and just look out over the countryside...Everything is immaculately maintained and we wanted for nothing. A great starting point for excursions and cycling tours in the area, there are plenty of destinations. There is plenty of information material and maps in the house so that you really don't miss anything. The communication with Mrs Kraft was uncomplicated and fast, everything worked out. You just have to feel good in this place!

Pure relaxation!
We felt very comfortable for a fortnight. The house radiates a special energy. Light-filled rooms and a view of the old town of Frolois in the distance, as well as three cows grazing peacefully. Nearby Flavigny-sur-Ozerain with the fabulous "La Grange", a restaurant run by local farmers with regional products. In Flavigny, a visit to the old aniseed factory with museum and café is also very worthwhile. There is an exceptionally good selection of books and CDs in the holiday home. On days when the weather is not so good, you can sit comfortably in front of the open fireplace with a glass of wine and an open view of the hilly landscape. The house stays pleasantly cool in summer and is very well heated on colder days.

Fantastic holiday home
A fantastic holiday home in a great setting! The view from the terrace is so beautiful that you don't want to do anything else but sit there and enjoy it. There are so many things to explore in the immediate vicinity, the Abbaye de Fontenay, Alesia, Dijon, Flavigny, Noyers or hikes starting right at the house
The furnishings are very tasteful, the equipment complete, the service cordial, the communication with Fr Kraft very nice and uncomplicated. We will be very happy to come back!

silence, far-sightedness, prospect
Actually, we wish that Bellevue finds you. That's how it was with us and the house provided what we needed: tranquility, both indoors and outdoors, a good and well-organized layout, the slope behind us, and a wide view ahead. A fine place for fresh thoughts and new ideas.

Pure holiday - even with children!
We spent two really great weeks in this very tastefully furnished and cozy house. Everything was just perfect: the contact with the landlord was very friendly and informative. The handover of the house was well organized, and we felt right at home. The house and the garden are even more beautiful than in the photos...! It is truly fantastic. Those who love peace and nature are in the right place there. Our two children, 3 and 6 years old, also felt very comfortable and had a lot of fun in the garden and in the surrounding area. A perfect vacation spot for families! Initially, we were disappointed that the treehouse was not as "safe" anymore and the meadow was not an ideal soccer field. However, the natural surroundings with great biking paths, cows, and streams made up for it and made it very hard for us to leave after two weeks. In the house itself, we didn't miss anything. Super equipped and well-maintained. Simply a house to feel comfortable and relax. Even the key handover at the end of the vacation was excellent! Thank you for that and see you next time!

Pure vacation!
The house and location are unique. The modern and functional house with its continuous window front offers a dreamy view of the opposing Frôlois Castle with church and village from every room. Also noteworthy are the exceptional tranquility - a special treat for city dwellers - and the brilliant starry sky.
The landscape with high plateaus intersected by valleys is varied and extremely fascinating. Frôlois is very centrally located for excursions to a variety of sights, of which there are more than enough.
We can highly recommend Maison Bellevue, pure holiday bliss is guaranteed.

Tolles privates Ferienhaus mit viel Ruhe
The very beautiful private holiday home is located on a west-facing slope with a romantic view of the valley and Frolois. The terrace gets sun all day. The clever planting of the garden prevents the house from overheating. The house is very well equipped and feels like "home." It is much more than a holiday home. We felt instantly mentally arrived after a stressful work year. We will gladly come back.

Architectural gem in a fantastic setting
The beautiful and fully equipped house is ideally located to explore Bourgogne with all its attractions, but also to unwind the soul in a wonderful tranquility and environment. We would also like to note that we have probably never seen so many stars in the sky anywhere else at night.
The hilly countryside is perfect for mountain biking excursions.

We can only agree with the previous review. Another advantage: due to the ingenious house construction, it remains pleasantly cool even at high temperatures (we had a heatwave with daily temperatures up to 38 degrees).

Panoramic view of a fairytale setting
Just the view of the enchanting Frôlois, which can be seen from all rooms of the house, is worth the money. In addition, there is an equipment that lacks nothing, a huge garden, unique tranquility, and surroundings that offer excursion and sightseeing opportunities for several vacations. If you don't relax here, there is no help for you.
