Host Nathalie was a little cool at first, but warmed up nicely by the end. She was kind to let us use a private internet station, as wifi was not working at the time. The chateau is quite lovely, if a little messy. The location is divine, in country fields, with large 1100s/1300s ? buildings next door. We did feel... More

My wife and I left La Cimentelle with regret that we had not booked a longer visit. We were there for three nights but we both realized that was not enough. We loved touring Burgundy and taking in the sights, sampling the food, and drinking the wines. But, the beginning and ending of each day is what staying at B&B’s... More

A great 4 days here. The bedroom and facilities were all of a very high standard and bear the hallmarks of people who care deeply about their level of service. The meals were a delight - wonderful French cuisine and generous servings of local cheeses and wines. A perfect stay. More

We stayed at La Cimentelle at the beginning of our holiday and enjoyed it so much we booked it again for the return! Lovely people, great food, individual bedrooms with comfortable bed and gorgeous white linen ...not to mention the lovely breakfast in the morning - we stayed with 2 children and it was perfect and loved the meals taken...

Once we focused on the fact we were looking for a little village NORTH of Avallon the B&B was easy to find. (Not so easy if you're looking IN Avallon!). We stayed two nights, had 2 breakfasts, one dinner, and one cooking lesson (which contributed to the dinner). Stephane and Nathalie are awesome hosts--very warm, personable, skilled and knowledgable. The... More

We stayed 2 nights in La Cimentelle, the place was very clean, nicely and tastefully decorated, it is a very nice mix of old Chateau style building with a modern touch as for example the very bright veranda where we had breakfasts. the hosts were very helpful with restaurants, activities and advices. Lovely moment! More

I stayed with my 80 year old father for 8 nights in late September, using it as a base to explore Burgundy at a relaxed pace. We were offered their gite (for 100 euros per night for two including breakfast), I think it's called the "petite Cimentelle",which is only a few steps away from the main house. It seems to... More

We spent a couple of nights here just before Xmas. The mansion like country house is not easy to find even with satnav - especially at night. Set in beatiful countryside, its ideal for those wanting to get away from the concrete and asphalt of everyday city life. Put on a pair of good walking shoes, enjoy the fresh air,... More

My wife and I took an overnight trip down from Paris. This was a wonderful location to relax and enjoy the French countryside. The inn was a magnificent. Breakfast the next morning was leisurely and delicious. Our host was extremely friendly and hospitable without being overbearing. Highly recommend staying there. More

We stayed for one night on our way to the Alps. It really was one of the nicest places I've seen in France - out in the countryside, on the edge of a small village. Our room was spotlessly clean, spacious and imaginatively furnished. The massive bath in front of a log fire was very welcoming, and so relaxing there... More
