Less than 2 hours from Paris, between Sens and Auxerre, the Colombier Vert is a haven of peace in a small village in Burgundy. Former farm of a castle now disappeared, the estate belongs to Régis and Véronique. Lovers of heritage and gardens, they are committed to the restoration of buildings while respecting their history, ecology and the environment. At the corner of the stove... The old bakehouse has become a nice cottage, comfortable and cozy, whose windows open onto the dovecote of the 17th century. Ideal for a quiet stay as a couple or for a teleworking session, it has a spacious living room on the ground floor, with a wood stove: you will enjoy snuggling up in one of the two very comfortable armchairs, arranged in front of the stove, with a good book! Upstairs, a bedroom with a double bed welcomes you for sweet and quiet nights. A separate space with a single sofa-bed allows you to receive a child or a friend. The natural and contemporary decoration brings a relaxing touch to the place. The lawn in front of the cottage allows you to enjoy the view of the dovecote and the barns with beautiful architecture. A few meters away, a contemporary garden, created and cultivated with respect for biodiversity, invites you to walk through the vegetable garden, natural meadows and medicinal plants. You will be welcomed by the Conciergerie de l'Yonne: Nathalie will offer you her advice to discover the region. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - Games ### Outdoor areas - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundromat nearby ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Concierge services - Housekeeping (limited availability) ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage - Farming classes - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Mountain biking nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit ### General - Annual offsets purchased for at least 10% of carbon footprint - At least 10% of profits reinvested in community and sustainability - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bicycle parking - Bicycle storage - Composting - Comprehensive recycling policy - Double-glazed windows - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Farming classes - Garden - Local culture and ecosystem education - Locally-owned and organized tours and activities - Reusable coffee/tea filters - Unit size: 517 square feet - Water-efficient showers - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/54000000/53430000/53430000/53429993/058ca932.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Marielu 2 single-family home Pouilly-sur-Loire - Kitchen - Washer - Outdoor space - Parking available 10 Exceptional 3 reviews CA $203 CA $277 total includes taxes & fees Dec 11 - Dec 12 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-11&endDate=2025-12-12&selected=53429993&PinnedHotelID=53429993&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/19000000/18960000/18955100/18955098/c10ac089.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming farmhouse in Burgundy Fontaines - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 8.4 Very good 5 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=18955098&PinnedHotelID=18955098&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/103000000/102470000/102464900/102464834/w1024h482x0y101-f3984766.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Gîte de Séjour La Romanella Asnières-sous-Bois - Kitchen - Washer - Free WiFi - Parking available 9.4 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=102464834&PinnedHotelID=102464834&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90120000/90111600/90111572/0ccfe903.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Traditional Holiday Home in Brinon sur Beuvron Brinon sur Beuvron - Kitchen - Washer - Outdoor space - Microwave 9.4 Exceptional 24 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-24&endDate=2025-12-25&selected=90111572&PinnedHotelID=90111572&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior detail](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27300000/27292800/27292785/2aaa8937.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### House N° 5 Place de l'église, Pouilly-sur-Loire.

Quality in every detail and very charming. It would benefit from A/C in periods of warm weather. Not having a washer/dryer makes it harder on longer stays. All in all, it’s lovely. ##### Elia S. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 6, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect quick getaway The cottage at Le Colombier Vert is ideal. Perfectly restored with elegant details (yet with all the contemporary comforts). While there, you have the whole grounds to yourself so you feel extravagant yet calm. Incredibly quiet views of the exquisite garden and space to think and breath. The hosts are incredibly dedicated to the restoration of the building and use all the traditional techniques and local materials. If you want a quiet re-energising visit in the region you can count on Veronique and Regis. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Camille R.
