The most beautiful châteaus to stay at in Burgundy
We have selected 5 châteaus for you, across the region of Burgundy, that have been converted into luxury accommodation. Some of them in a contemporary style, others have kept their historic atmosphere. But all of them have one thing in common: they are offering guests the chance to experience a timeless, hedonistic stay, and to live like royalty.
Château de Vault de Lugny
The Vault de Lugny oozes the majestic charm of French art-de-vivre: moats filled with water, keep classified as a Historic Monument, 4 hectares of greenery, a swimming pool inside a vaulted cellar, four-poster beds, etc. An enchanting place at the entrance to the Morvan!
- Added bonus: a gourmet restaurant run by a chef who was awarded a Michelin star in 2019.
Château de Couches
At the Château de Couches, you will experience an exceptional overnight stay in one of the 3 guest rooms. The next morning, you'll have a range of activities to choose from: tour of the medieval fortress (don't miss the superb Aubusson tapestry), wine tasting of the estate's wines, or a relaxing walk through the gardens.
- Added bonus: a meal at the restaurant inside the château's former stables
