Overview
As you approach Château De Réon along its tree-lined driveways you will immediately feel how special this place is. With a rich heritage and stunning natural surroundings, this Burgundy château is a wonderful place for family reunions, holidays with friends or a romantic wedding close to Beaune and the wine villages of the Route des Grands Crus.
Set in its own private walled grounds, Château De Réon was once part of a vast Cistercian abbey’s estate, dating as far back as the 12th century, and was home to the lay brothers for hundreds of years until the French Revolution. The current owners, who fell in love with the domaine, have spent the past decade reviving and restoring this beautiful château whilst respecting its great history as well as its spiritual and natural heritage.
Nowadays this spacious residence offers seven elegantly furnished bedrooms and an impressive apartment, altogether sleeping up to 15 guests. The château exudes an air of authenticity with traditional décor and characterful features alongside contemporary touches - overall there is a true sense of classic style. The living spaces are especially inviting with two large lounges, a high-ceilinged dining room and a well-equipped kitchen.
Within the nine hectares of your private walled grounds, discover the idyllic terrace for al-fresco dining, the tranquil monastic garden, a peaceful pond and canal, vineyards and an orchard as well as the heated swimming pool. The perfectly restored Orangery is an ideal reception venue for a grand Burgundy wedding in such a splendid setting.
A small village is just 2km away, there are restaurants within a short drive and the beautiful town of Beaune, the wine capital of Burgundy, is just 12km by car. Visit its twice-weekly market to pick up an abundance of local produce, sample Côte de Beaune in the town’s restaurants and bars and admire the incredible Hospices de Beaune, one of France’s most significant historic buildings.
Follow the Route des Grands Crus on foot, bike or by car, coming across gorgeous wine villages such as Pommard, Puligny Montrachet, Volnay and Meursault and their surrounding vineyards, all within around 15km.
Book a table at Maison Lameloise, a 100-year old restaurant in Chagny with three Michelin stars, or further afield spend the day learning about the Roman heritage of Autun or the magnificent abbey in Cluny. For even more outdoor adventures, the Parc Naturel Régional du Morvan is yet another gem of this glorious part of Burgundy.

The estate also features the beautiful Palais De Réon and its private grounds next door beyond the château’s walled gardens.
Despite the rural idyll on your doorstep, you are also so close to many of the famous Burgundy wine villages that can be found along the Route des Grands Crus.

Chagny (13km) is also a short drive away, famed for its 100 year old Michelin starred restaurant, Maison Lameloise. It’s also worth a visit on a Sunday morning for its bustling market whilst keen cyclists can follow the towpath along the Canal du Centre.
Other worthy towns to visit include Roman Autun (54km) and the charming town of Dijon (58km), also accessible by train from Beaune. History lovers may also wish to spend time in Cluny, about an hours drive away, with its famous abbey, classed as one of France’s official National Monuments.
