  • A little higher up is another terrace, from which you can see the lake l'Etang Fouché and supervise your children. You are then only a few steps away from a refreshing dip in the clear water.
  • The terraces and the adjoining garden are sheltered, but not fenced. There is a stream at the front of the plot.
Location

The holiday apartments of Moulin Fouché are located in a lotissement with no through traffic. Because the gîtes are located at the bottom of the dike, you only hear some sounds of walkers and swimmers. On the terraces and in our garden you are in the middle of the greenery and it is good to be. If you walk up the path, you will be directly on the picturesque lake l'Etang Fouché. You can enjoy walking, lying on the beach, swimming, pedal boating, supping and fishing. Although your gîte is located on the outskirts of Arnay-le-Duc, all facilities of the town are a short distance away. The bakery and supermarket are even within walking distance. In the center you will find several good restaurants, nice cafes and cozy terraces.

Environment

The Côte d'Or department and the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region have a lot to offer! The landscape is rolling and forms a patchwork of grain fields, meadows, vineyards and forests. In the spring, the rapeseed blooms in the fields and in the summer you see sunflowers everywhere. There are many places worth seeing nearby. Dijon, Beaune, Semur-en-Auxois, Autun and Saulieu not only have nice shops and cozy terraces, but also interesting museums. One of the most beautiful villages in France - Châteauneuf-en-Auxois - is located a stone's throw from Arnay-le-Duc. In Burgundy there are dozens of imposing castles to visit. You will also find interesting museums, beautiful abbeys, old churches and large cathedrals. The best wines in the world come from Burgundy and the Côte d'Or. After half an hour's drive you are in the middle of the wine region.

Location & area recommendations

Additional information

Moulin Fouché is located directly on the picturesque l'Etang Fouché. The lake was created when a dike was built in the valley of the Arroux river around 1750. A water mill (grain mill) named Moulin Fouché was built on the dike. The municipality of Arnay-le-Duc has turned the lake into a beautiful recreational lake with a beach.

Swimming is allowed in a large part of the lake. Floats in the water indicate the different swimming areas. When there is a green flag in July and August, there is lifeguard supervision. There are two free water slides and a children's playground on the beach. On part of the lake you can go paddle boarding, pedal boating and sailing with small boats. There are several picnic benches next to the beach and there are several beautiful lawns around the lake.

A gently sloping walking, cycling and fitness path of two kilometers runs around the lake. You can get there in half an hour and along the way you will pass three bridges and all kinds of grooming equipment. It is a beautiful, peaceful and relaxing walk. There are 90 kilometers of hiking, cycling and mountain bike trails in the area.

There is a green and quiet Huttopia campsite next to the lake, where fun activities are organized and where (electric) bicycles can be rented. Everyone can eat in the campsite restaurant. Because Moulin Fouché is built against the dike - and is therefore more or less below water level - the sounds of the camping guests and the people in the water and on the beach often pass over you. This means you can enjoy your well-deserved rest and nature at your house.

If you like fishing, l'Etang Fouché is a good place for your hobby. The lake is an official fishing location. You can fish for carp, tench, pike, pike-perch and trout. A fishing license can be purchased at the nearby campsite.
Moulin Fouché is located on the outskirts of the historic town of Arnay-le-Duc. The town has about 1,400 inhabitants, who are called Arnétois. The area of Arnay-le-Duc is about 12 km².

The place has a regional function and has various facilities. There are three supermarkets (Aldi, Carefour and Bi1), two bakeries, two drugstores, a hardware store, a garden center, some nice shops, cozy terraces and restaurants in various price ranges. The Carefour and one of the bakeries are within walking distance (8 minutes).

The best, most beautiful and also most expensive restaurant in the town is Chez Camille, but you can also eat well at Le Dauphiné, Le Château d'Arnay and Café du Nord. There are several other nice restaurants in the region.

The charging points for electric cars are within walking distance (10 to 15 minutes) of Moulin Fouché. There are charging stations of 3.7 and 22 kW. If you would like to know more about charging your electric car, please feel free to contact us.

In July and August, the Nocturnes Estivales festival takes place on Thursday evenings. The shops are open, there are stalls with nice things, there is live music and there is plenty to eat and drink.
The Côte d'Or department and the Bourgogne-Franche-Comté region have a lot to offer! The landscape is rolling and forms a patchwork of grain fields, meadows, vineyards and forests. In the spring the rapeseed blooms in the fields and in the summer you see sunflowers everywhere.

Various walking, cycling and mountain bike routes have been set out around Arnay-le-Duc. Detailed walking and cycling maps can be purchased at the Office de Tourisme in Arnay-le-Duc. Or you download an app. Beautiful cycling routes run along the Canal de Bourgogne and straight through the wine area, from Dijon, via Beaune to Santenay. Arnay-le-Duc is located next to the Morvan nature reserve, where you can enjoy lovely walks.
There are many places worth seeing nearby. Dijon, Beaune, Autun, Semur-en-Auxois and Saulieu not only have nice shops and cozy terraces, but also interesting museums. One of the most beautiful villages in France - Châteauneuf-en-Auxois - is located a stone's throw from Arnay-le-Duc.

In Burgundy there are dozens of imposing castles to visit. You will also find interesting museums, beautiful abbeys, old churches and large cathedrals. The best wines in the world come from Burgundy and the Côte d'Or. After half an hour's drive you are in the middle of the wine region.
