Item Description

This experience includes:

  • 7 nights stay for 8 people in Burgundy, France
  • 1 dinner for 8 people at Michelin-starred restaurant 
  • 1 case of local wine delivered to the house
  • personalized booking and concierge service

 

Spend an idyllic week at Maison Valois, a charming restorated stone-built village house that has architectural characteristics typical of this part of Burgundy. Located in a private gated courtyard on a quiet village street, the house has a large living room with a wood stove, a dining area that looks across the fields and vineyards, and a large garden where you can dine al fresco and enjoy the spectacular views. Recent renovations and updated decor will make your stay memorable while you relax in this spacious and comfortable Burgundy country house!

 

Indulge in a diverse and exceptional dinner at the restaurant of Chef Takashi Kinoshita, Michelin-starred chef. The restaurant is located at a short 10 minute drive from Maison Valois. 

 

Your vacation will be off to a bubbly start as you arrive at Maison Valois to find a case of local wine waiting for you. The wine of this area of Burgundy is Cremant, a light and sparkling wine that is very similar to Champagne, its sister region a few miles to the north.

 

 

The house is located in a village that is 10 minutes drive from the market town of Chatillon sur Seine. There is air conditioning in each of the bedrooms. The house is made of thick limestone, so it stays pleasantly cool in the heat. 

The master bedroom has a King size bed with en suite bathroom. The two other upstairs bedrooms share a large bathroom, one with a Queen and the 2nd with 2 Queens which can convert to a king. The fourth bedroom has a King size bed and is downstairs and has a bathroom next to it (though not en suite).
