The rooms
Rooms keep their original timber beams and Burgundy stone. Botanical prints and wildlife patterns echo the forest outside.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
The 15-meter heated indoor pool looks out through tall arched windows, and a second pool opens outside in summer.
The spa & gym
At the table
Michelin-starred Erre serves regional Burgundy dishes alongside a 500-bottle cellar, and a country bistro borders the golf course.
How it began
The main lodge was built in the 19th century to host hunting parties for the nearby Château de Frauville.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
