Château de Villette

Top choice in Burgundy


Set in a 5-sq-km private estate 11km south of Bibracte, this delightful 16th- and 18th-century château offers a glimpse of the luxurious life of Burgundy's landed aristocracy. After waking up in a ravishingly furnished period room, suite or cottage, you can cycle or look for escargots in the rolling countryside, play tennis or relax by the stress-melting pool. Reserve ahead.

Table d'hôte dinners (€55, on request) receive warm praise.
