COUNTRY LODGE “LA CHAUME”

Our country lodge (gîte rural) has been specially designed to maximize your holiday pleasure. The small village of La Chaume - situated in a valley three kilometers away from Cussy-en-Morvan and twenty minutes from famous Lac des Settons - is one of the most charming places in the Park of Morvan. Engraved on the facade of the house, the number 1821 proclaims the year of construction of the house. The scholars will add that it was also the year of Napoleon's death. By adding the figure 5 in front of 1821, you will make quite an impression by revealing that the emperor left this world at the age of 51, 8 months and 21 days!
