Escape to Stigny

TJTJ Newcastle upon Tyne, UK
Review Submitted: August 31, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
This quaint cottage is perfect for a quiet break in the heart of Burgundy. There is easy access to places such as Auxerre, Noyers, Fontenay Abbey and Dijon. The nearest town of Ancy-le-Franc is very accessible and has all the amenities - including a very good charcuterie, boucherie and patisserie.

The house itself is small but not too cramped for a family of four. It had all the facilities that you would need, including a well-equipped kitchen and a barbecue. Stigny is an ideal base for exploring the surrounding area, whether by car, bike or on foot. A particular highlight was the Burgundy Canal where you can cycle for miles along the quiet towpath.

Karen was a perfect hostess - very welcoming on arrival and always available if needed. Karen took us to the village fireworks on our second evening - which our boys really enjoyed, particularly the latern walk back to the cottage afterwards. Karen also supplied us with some beautiful fresh vegetables that were from her garden, which we enjoyed immensely.

Relaxing, quiet yet close to interesting places

Marilyn from Melbourne Melbourne Australia
Review Submitted: August 28, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
La Poterne in the quiet village of Stigny was an enjoyable, memorable place to stay. The stone cottage was delightful - the best room was the charming sitting room with the open fire which we lit each night. The outdoor area was also well used - a lovely sunny spot to have lunch or read, when we happened to be home. Mostly we visited many surrounding places of great interest - Montreal, Flavigny, Noyers (a must) Clamency, Vezelay, Chablis, Abbey de Pontigny, Chateau Ancy le Franc, Abbey de Fontenay, Source of the Seine, Auxerre etc. Karen, Clive and Joanna made us very welcome and were on hand to help at all times. The house was well equipped, clean and tidy and easy to live in, very comfortable. It would be great for a family with 2 children and would happily recommend it my friends.

A beautifully looked after gite in a lovely location. We had a wonderful time riving round looking at ancient abbeys and finding restaurants.

Terrific in all respects

A good base to tour the Burgundy wine region recommend Chablis, Beaune, Auxerre, Vezelay & Chatillon sur seine. A very welcome salad and wine on our arrival from Karen a very thoughtful and helpful hostess (even when England won the Ashes!)
