About this property

Small castle in the heart of Burgundy, swimming pool, panoramic view

In the heart of the Côte d'Or region, a stone's throw from Alesia (Burgundy), this small castle which offers a remarkable panorama on its authentic village and the surrounding countryside. The flowered garden extends over three levels, crossed by a small water source with a soothing sound. On the first terrace, a swimming pool (12x4 meters, open from mid-May), heated and secured by an electric shutter.
The Château des Roches is a real family home, where it is good to be in the living room around the stoves and the big fireplace, the billiard table or the quarter grand piano for an evening. The spacious rooms allow everyone to have their own place to play, listen to music, read quietly or simply do nothing. Pets are welcome. Ping-pong table, Mölky, petanque balls, board games, DVD collection,... the house is made for stays with friends or several generations. Sheets and toilet towels are provided, the beds are made at your arrival. You only have to put your suitcases :).
The village for shopping is 10km away. You will find bakeries, butcher, press, and a big supermarket. A market gardener sells his vegetables nearby, and a baker comes twice a week in a van to the village.
During the cold season, heating during your stay is charged extra, based on the actual consumption of fuel oil (count 50 liters per day).
Check-in is from 4 p.m. and check-out is at 10 a.m. for week-long stays. For weekends, departure may be in the afternoon, on a case-by-case basis.
Please note: the house is not suitable for people with mobility difficulties, because of the steps to access the house and between the different terraces in the garden.

Lovely chateau in gorgeous countryside

We had such great family time in this historic beautiful chateau that is furnished so charmingly with antiques and period pieces. Sophie was a delightful host, easy to communicate with. The chateau is well equipped (though a microwave would be a nice addition), and we enjoyed the piano, pool table, music and children’s toys! The grounds are so lovely and there is lots to do!

Charming Rustic Place

The villa itself had rustic country charm. It was a little bit dusty in some areas, but the kitchen and bathrooms were clean. Heated pool was a plus.

FAMILY home in burgundy

We stayed with a whole family of 3 generations in the house and it is most suitable thatfore. We loved to play pool billiard and to play the piano 4 handed. The housekeeper was charming and always helpful. The house is very generous but not too chic, so one does feel comfortable also with little children. We all including the children loved the house and wanted to stay longer. Wrecrecommendtostalonger.

Wonderful Chatêau in a calm little village

If you are looking for a special place which provides a lot to do (Pool, Trampoline, Ping Pong, Billard-Table) and discover in- and outside of the castle, this is a perfect place. We has a great weekend with the family. Everything worked as planned and communication was super nice. There are some other villages nearby where you can find restaurants as well as grocery shopping places (ca. 10 min by car from Hauteroche). We also had a cook from Dijon preparing dinner for us at the castle. This was a very nice and delicious experience and was recommended by the owner! We will definitely think about returning another time!

A week to remember

We had a beautiful stay at a wonderful house in the quiet village of Hauteroche. The house was well equiped for our group of nine people and a dog. With big living area’s, a nice garden and swimming pool. And the billiard of course😁. The few questions we had during the week we promptly replied. Thank you for a wonderful week Sophie!

A wonderful place for family and friends

We were with 9 people (including three children) and dog in the really beautiful little castle of Sophie. In reality, we found the house even more beautiful than in the photos. So if you like the photos, you will love the house too. It was perfect for a family trip, pool, table tennis, billiards, trampoline, a field to play ball, the opportunity to barbecue, but also enough space in the house to play and retreat. The house was perfectly prepared for us on arrival and Sophie had also provided us with information in advance. We felt very happy, Sophie and Albert were easy to reach and took care of us. So thank you very much for the hospitality and the good time! The house is located in a really very small and quiet place, so you always have to drive for groceries and food. But if you are willing, then you will find within a 1/2 hour a variety of wonderful restaurants in the many the small towns around Hauteroche. Therefore a great house and hosts in a beautiful location.

Wunderbare Tage in historischem Ambiente

Wir waren eine Gruppe von 10 Erwachsenen und haben den Aufenthalt in dem wunderschönen historischen Ambiente sehr genossen. Nur zu Beginn war es ein paar Tage unerwartet kalt im September. Da die Heizung nicht angestellt war, konnten wir nur mit den offenen Kaminen heizen, was am ersten Tag etwas problematisch war. Beim ersten Anfeuern wurde die gesamte Küche verqualmt, da wir das Holz nicht weit genug nach hinten gelegt hatten. Danach hatten wir nur noch den Kamin im Salon angemacht und das Wetter wurde sogar so warm, dass wir den beheizten Pool benutzen konnten. Herrlich! Die Küche und die Zimmer waren gut ausgestattet. Es hat nichts gefehlt. Wir hoffen auf ein nächsten Mal mit unserer Familie.

Familien-Weekend

Unser verlängertes 3-Generationen-Weekend war meist verregnet und kalt. Trotz allem herrlich. Kommunikation klappte von Anfang an bestens und der Empfang durch Albert war herzlich. Pool wurde benutzt, wenn auch noch auf der kühleren Seite, jedoch sehr sauber. Das Haus sauber, ausgestattet mit allem was man braucht und herrlichen Betten, die gottlob heizbar waren. Flügel für Musiker, na ja. Wir fühlten uns sehr wohl. Garten leidet unter den Buchsbaumzünslern, dies aber in der ganzen Umgebung. Für uns zählte letztendlich das gemeinsame Beisammensein.

Einer unserer schönsten Urlaube

Wir haben mit Freunden, teils mit Kindern das kleine Schloss gebucht. Es ist eine authentische Unterkunft mit viel Charme. Der Check-in war gut organisiert und wir wurden bei der Begrüssung durch das Gebäude und Anwesen geführt. Von Vorteil ist es aber Französisch zu sprechen, da die Einsweisung bei uns nur in Französisch möglich war. Das Gebäude ist sehr hellhörig und man kann durch die alten Decken nahezu jedes Wort aus dem EG im OG hören. Die Küche ist gut ausgestattet und hielt alles bereit, aber ein paar mehr Gläser wären hilfreich gewesen. Die Sauberkeit war ok, es viel auf das einige Bereiche etwas "verstaubt" wirkten. Der Garten und Pool sind schön angelegt und bieten genügend Platz. Für die Kinder war zudem ein Highlight das grosse Trampolin. Zusammengefasst: eine tolle location mit französischem Charme.

un week end inoubliable

Nous revenons d'un week end en famlille au château d'hauteroches et tous (14) sont unanimes pour dire que ce fut fabuleux. Entre la bâtisse qui est superbe et chargée d'histoire tant à l'extérieur qu'à l'intérieur, la piscine, le parc, le ping Pong et le billard qui ont accupé petits et grands et ALBERT qui répond présent au moindre problème, nous n'avons qu'un seul regret : que la week end soit déjà fini

Charming!

It was a wonderful place for our family to be together, make music, cook, swim in the large pool, play games, and take long walks. Communication with Sophie was excellent and she even arranged for the piano to be tuned! Wonderful produce at the little stall at the bottom of the hill. Visits to Flavigny and Semur-en-Auxois were highlights too. Unfortunately we apparently damaged the pool table felt, but Sophie has been very fair and clear about how to settle that. All in all a lovely week. Thank you!

Cette vaste maison au charme indéniable à été parfaite pour notre réunion entre amis. Sophie à toujours répondu présente lorsque nécessaire. Nous n'avons pas eu la chance de pouvoir profiter de la piscine qui n'était pas encore terminée pour notre arrivée, mais les enfants on pu jouer dans le grand jardin lorsque nous n'étions pas partis en visite. Si vous chercher un endroit au calme pour vous et vos amis, cette maison est un choix incontournable!

Maison d’exception

Il s’agissait de notre deuxième séjour en famille au Château d’Hauteroche et nous avons encore cette année apprécié le charme de cette demeure exceptionnelle. La maison est joliment décorée et parfaitement équipée. L’immense jardin offre un terrain de jeu formidable aux enfants. Sophie est très disponible pour répondre aux questions et proposer des activités dans les environs. Albert a été parfait pour nous accueillir et nous apporter toutes les infos utiles. La région est magnifique et les activités possibles ne manquent pas : tennis à quelques kilomètres, possibilité de pêcher, visites culturelles nombreuses (château de Bussy Rabutin, de Commarin, de Chateauneuf en Auxois, Alésia, Flavigny…) Nous espérons revenir !
