Chateau Des Siecles And Annexe

Description

Have a large group looking to soak up the bounty of the one of the most beautiful regions in France? Consisting of five diverse buildings with luxury accommodations for 48 guests, this chateau in Burgundy will delight with its jaw-dropping views and special charm.
A total of 21 bedrooms with equal bathrooms are dispersed among the Main House, Commons, Pavilions, Caves, and the Annexe, which centre around a gorgeous courtyard and are enclosed by fortified medieval walls.
The vaulted caves date back to the Middle Ages and are now gorgeous suites with fireplaces. The 19th century Main House above is equally stunning, with terraces on all sides overlooking the countryside. Two 17th century buildings make up the Commons, while the Pavilions have been converted into light-filled studios with private kitchens. The Annexe is a short walk from the chateau, making it an ideal space for those looking for more privacy.
Each property is beautifully designed and warmly inviting, with spacious common areas and traditional charm. Guests will delight in the spectacular pool, lush gardens, and alfresco dining alongside unobstructed valley views – plus the indoor games, cinema room, and the numerous vineyards just 25 minutes from the chateau!
