Whether you're in the private garden of your rented château or villa, or out exploring the multitude of flora and fauna, Burgundy has something for everyone on your holiday.
Among the most popular natural sites is the 700-metre-high Massif d'Uchon, with its huge granite boulders, ideal if you're looking for a walk or mountain bike ride through lush countryside. Get some height with Mont Beuvray, offering a remarkable view of the valley and a page of history from the time of the Gallic people. Take a trip to Le Bec d'Allier, where the Loire, France's longest river, meets the wild Allier, creating an extraordinary atmosphere worthy of the Amazon. Finally, the Roche de Solutré is both a great natural site that dominates the valley around it and a remarkable archaeological site where you can stop off at the prehistory museum.
This natural wealth is perfect for discovering different sites, and Burgundy has something for everyone. During your holiday in your luxury château or villa rental, set off to discover this diversity. Wander the streets of the small local villages or the region's main towns. Explore the underground wonders of the Azé caves, Arcy-sur-Cure caves, Bèze caves or Blanot caves. Take a walk along Burgundy's legendary canals, such as the Canal du Nivernais, the Canal de Roanne, or the Canal de Bourgogne.
If peace and quiet reign supreme in your luxury château rental, the same is true along Burgundy's peaceful rivers, such as the Yonne, Saône and Seille. This is your chance to discover charming villages full of character along the canals and rivers!
If you love nature and want to get away from it all, renting a luxury villa or château overlooking the natural landscapes of Burgundy is for you. Renting a luxury property with a garden and private heated swimming pool, private tennis court, spa and jacuzzi will offer you peace and tranquility for a guaranteed peaceful break. Burgundy is all about walks along the canals and rivers, panoramic views as far as the eye can see with its magnificent massifs and hills, châteaux in many different styles and architectures, vineyards, and the omnipresent wine-growing industry.
But Burgundy is also a destination that offers a wide range of sporting and family activities.

When you're looking to rent a villa or château for a holiday with family or friends, sporting, leisure or family activities are an excellent way to spend some unforgettable moments.
Burgundy also has a rich wine-growing heritage. In fact, the climats of the Burgundy vineyards are even listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site! Here, it's not at all a question of the weather: the term refers to a parcel of vines that has been demarcated and cultivated by man, often for many years. Renting a luxury property in Burgundy will give you the chance to learn all about winegrowing culture, an essential part of French culture and gastronomy!
As you will have gathered, Burgundy's winegrowing heritage includes a terroir rich in personality, stunning landscapes spread over almost 30,000 hectares of vines, and plots of land that have inherited 2000 years of winegrowing history handed down from generation to generation.
The Burgundy region boasts no fewer than 84 different wine appellations, 30,000 hectares of vineyards and over 1,800 historic climats, representing 4% of France's PDO vineyards. A pillar of France's wine heritage!
Close to your luxury villa or château rental, the “Cité des Climats et vins de Bourgogne” offers you the chance to discover, understand, taste, see and smell the very essence of the Climats. Whether you are a wine enthusiast or just a beginner, the Cité des Climats et vin is the perfect opportunity for an activity with friends or family to learn more about viticulture and France's wine heritage.
As you now know, vineyards stretch for hectares and are omnipresent in Burgundy. That's why tourist routes have been set up to showcase all the charm, knowledge, passion, and heritage of this region, both in terms of viticulture by discovering white, rosé, red and Crémant wines, but also in terms of cultural heritage. Renting a château and exploring these wine routes can be an excellent way of seeing all the richness of this region, combining natural, cultural, and wine heritage! Among the most important wine routes is the Route des Grands Crus, probably the best known, which passes through several communes rich in heritage and wine along a 60-kilometre route.
