City break

Experience the towns

The towns of art and history are unmissable in Burgundy. Leave your luggage at your accommodation and then go for a leisurely stroll. The town centres are often mostly reserved for pedestrians and cyclists so you can really make the most of your urban experience.

Set off and explore on foot... You can expect to see churches, museums, and châteaus, as well as restaurants, wine bars, festivals, shops, and so much more.

Explore the villages

Stop off at the picturesque villages and charming little towns dotted across the Burgundian countryside. Nestled in amongst the rolling hills, at the heart of a vineyard or perched up on hilltops and sheltered by the ramparts, you can expect some great new discoveries. The special, unique atmospheres there will whisk you on a journey back in time.

Morvan

Have you heard of the Morvan? This natural region at the heart of Burgundy is a lush-green slice of heaven. Deep forests, rolling hills, granite rocks in strange shapes, lakes that resemble Canada... This picture-perfect land is made for adventures in the great outdoors!

Each department has its own getaways

Burgundy is a diverse and varied region that you can come back to again and again, to the north, south, east or west, where there’s always something new to do or a new place to explore. Côte-d’Or, Nièvre, Saône-et-Loire, Yonne: 4 departments and 4 opportunities to discover Burgundy from a different or specific angle. 

Every season is beautiful in Burgundy and it’s amazing to see the scenery change in such a subtle way.”
