Beautiful, Well Lit Spacious Holiday Gite

In October 2000 we decided to change direction in life and moved here from Scotland to become the new owners of Les Tilleuls.

We are slowly beginning to piece together the history of Les Tilleuls which we understand dates back well over a century.

For many years it was a village farmhouse until in the 60's over a period of time it eventually became the local Inn and the centre of village life.

Some years later it was abandoned and fell into disrepair until in 1989 it was purchased by an English couple and transformed into an attractive and popular B & B which has been operating successfully for the past 11 years.

During this time the huge loft space above what was originally the barn was converted into what is now a spacious and comfortable Gite with private south facing terrace.

We are enjoying discovering and learning about the history of the Cote d'Or and look forward to welcoming our guests to the region.
