From the owner

The Chateau de Varennes is being owned by the same family for 400 years. The main buildings were built in the eighteen century in the most classical French style (ceilings in the reception rooms are 4 meters high).

The Chateau offers huge habitable space and was fully renovated by famous interior designers and landscapists. The electricity, plumbery, heating and Internet access are all new. All the rooms are very well equipped and decorated with high quality materials. A separate reception building can host weddings and large events (up to 200 guests in a single banquet hall, unlimited numbers in the gardens). The property can be hired on an exclusive basis and an in house chef is available for meals prepared with local fresh produce (our gardeners grow our own strawberries, herbs, salads, etc). Pricing for housekeeping and catering upon request. Late deals can also be negotiated

The Chateau is the perfect haven for relaxation, yet it is close to all amenities and restaurants.

It is perfectly located for visiting the many sights of the region – the vineyards of Beaune, Dijon the capital of Burgundy and the Jura mountains to the East with outstanding Michelin rated restaurants and golf courses. Many sports can be practiced on and off-site : clay pigeon shooting (on-site), biking, kayaking, water-skiing, tennis, horse riding, etc

Further details

Many optional services upon request : full catering service with an in-house professional chef, maid service, concierge service, laundry service, shuttle transfers from/to airport and train stations, chauffeured limo or mini-vans, wine-tours, wine-tasting, cooking lessons, baby-sitting...

The paneled dining room dates back to 1900, when oak cut from the estate park was used. There is also the kitchen and the utility rooms that were fully refurbished by a famous interior designer. Kitchens are comprehensively equipped with high quality professional equipment (large induction grill, two ovens, microwave, two fridges including icemaker, dishwasher, large flat screen TV), a large dining table and direct access to the garden and the dining rooms. The entire chateau has robust wi-fi .
