What they say
One Michelin Key
Michelin
The accommodations are sprawling, and made to feel even larger by their open, uncluttered plans.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Set between Auxerre and Chablis, the estate borders vast woodlands with direct trails for jogging and electric bike wine tours.
The rooms
Uncluttered, sunlit suites contrast warm hardwood antiques and pitched timber ceilings with bespoke contemporary seating and designer deep-soaking bathtubs.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
An 18-meter heated lap pool stretches along a timber deck, backed by green parkland and forest.
Spa and gym
A Finnish sauna, Turkish hammam, and gym with cardio equipment sit alongside contemporary art in the wellness wing.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Locavore dinners spotlight estate-grown herbs and regional produce, served in the beamed dining salon or beside the pool.
How it began
Dutch art collectors Johan Bouman and Pieter Franssens restored the historic farmhouse and manor to showcase their personal collection.
