Crowning a hill in the renowned winemaking region of Burgundy, Chateau de la Resle has the charm and personality of a well-loved private home.
The six elegant rooms and suites are taken care of by Dutchmen Johan Bouman and Pieter Franssens, who invites guests to share the French, ivy-wrapped manor house that he painstakingly restored.
Adding to the feeling of romance and exclusivity Johan Bouman and Pieter Franssens, who invite guests to share their personal collection of contemporary and abstract art., which attracts fellow connoisseurs from around the world.
From the château, which sits on the edge of an 800-hectare hunting forest, there are bucolic views down the valley of Montigny la Resle. The wine village of Chablis – that gives its name to one of the most famous white wines in France – is also just a short drive away.
Exploring the area is a delight, but guests are equally happy to unwind at the château’s spa, soak in the azure pool, or relax by a sizzling open fire with a glass of the château’s own Chablis.
