Nestled in the hollow of a beautiful rural and natural environment preserved by bocage & agricultural plains, the village of Pontoux has the particularity of having owned the last floating mill installed on the Doubs (and probably one of the very last mills of this type in France) and has a 27 hectare pond in a protected site (located 1.5 km from the gîte), an exceptional sensitive natural area unique in Burgundy, itself also classified as a "Natura 2000 Zone" (nesting of many birds with more than 130 species listed, including one of the largest colonies of gray herons in Saône-et-Loire) with a dedicated educational course (to be discovered in complete discretion…).
