Former village bakery cottage in Burgundy

This cottage in Frolois was once the village boulangerie, and its newly renovated interiors still carry that sense of purpose. You'll find a log-burning stove in the lounge, a fully equipped kitchen with a Juliette balcony, and a traditional walk-in pantry — all designed for a comfortable stay.

Upstairs, two bedrooms — a king double and a twin — each have their own en-suite shower room stocked with towels and toiletries. The home sleeps four and is fully equipped for families, with cots, high chairs, stair gates, and child-friendly tableware available. Fresh baguettes and pastries can be delivered to your door each morning.

Step outside and you have a south-facing enclosed garden with sun loungers and a gas grill. It looks out over the village rooftops and the surrounding valley, making it a natural spot for you to gather for an outdoor meal.

Medieval villages and châteaux are within 15 minutes, including Flavigny-sur-Ozerain, as well as the UNESCO-listed Abbaye de Fontenay further afield. Dijon is around 45 minutes away, and Beaune about an hour. You can hire bicycles or horses nearby, or use printed walking maps provided by your hosts.
