The bright kitchen-diner is brilliantly equipped and the open-plan living space offers both comfort and character with original parquet flooring, exposed stone walls and wood-beamed ceilings. Sliding doors lead out to a glorious terrace and barbecue, ideal for warm summer evenings creating feasts using ingredients from the many local markets.

Location
About the surrounding area of Maison ChardonnayMaison Chardonnay is located in the very heart of the well-known Burgundy wine village of Puligny-Montrachet, just a 15-minute drive from the centre of Beaune.
You are just a few steps away from the boulangerie and within a couple of minutes you can walk to the village café, grocery store, wine bar and a small handful of excellent restaurants including the Michelin starred Le Montrachet.
There are many opportunities to sample wine in Puligny-Montrachet; the village boasts four Grand Crus and is part of the well-known wine-road, Route des Grands Crus. Covering over 60km between Dijon and Santenay, other nearby villages along this prestigious wine route include Chassagne-Montrachet (3km), Meursault (5km), Volnay (8km) and Pommard (9km) as well as other vineyards covering the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune appellations. Cycling and walking are both idyllic ways to discover the surrounding landscapes of endless vines, wonderful wineries and fantastic restaurants.
Heading north, following the Route des Grands Crus, you will reach the historic town of Beaune (13km), known to be the wine-capital of Burgundy. As well as some of the country’s best wineries, it is also home to the Hospices de Beaune, one of France’s most significant historical buildings. Visit the vibrant market on Wednesday or Saturday morning to pick up some wonderful regional produce from this area.
The market in Chagny (5km) on a Sunday morning is likewise a delight; this charming town is also home to Maison Lameloise, a 100-year old restaurant with three Michelin stars. Just south of the town, the canal is a pleasant place for cycling and walking and there are also some great fishing spots nearby. Chagny also has its own train station which is handy when visiting Beaune and Dijon.
Indeed, the mustard stores of Dijon (60km) are easily reached by train or car whilst Cluny (65km) is best known for its incredible abbey, one of the largest in Europe and a National Monument of France. History lovers may also wish to visit Autun (40km) with its Roman sites, twice-weekly market and beautiful cathedral.
For a change of scene, drive an hour west to the stunning Parc Naturel Régional du Morvan for hiking, mountain biking, horse-riding and watersports on the lakes and rivers. Discover incredible woodland, undulating hills and delightful villages in this spectacular part of Burgundy.

We loved the house!! It was easy to live in: great, well-appointed kitchen, attractive furnishings, outdoor dining, and peaceful surroundings. We nested happily and were sad to leave.

A PERFECT stay
Our group (three couples) had a simply fabulous week at Maison Chardonnay. The house was impeccable in every way - beautifully furnished, well equipped gourmet kitchen, outdoor dining patio, comfortable beds and plenty of room for gathering as a group. Steve and Jill were wonderful hosts - quickly responsive to questions during our stay plus the generous welcome provisions for our first breakfast in the kitchen. If you are looking for the PERFECT stay in Burgundy, you couldn't find a more ideal location and vacation home. Thanks again to Steve and Jill for their hospitality and helping to make our stay a truly memorable one.

Perfect place to stay in Burgundy
If you want to stay in Burgundy then Maison Chardonnay is the perfect place. It is a lovely, comfortable house with all the amenities one could wish for. The location is ideal-walk to the boulangerie across the square for breakfast croissants and enjoy them outside on the terrace. In the evenings, you could choose to stay in and dine in comfort or stroll across the square to La Maison de Olivier LeFlaive for fine dining and fine wine, or two minutes down
the road to Michelin starred Le Montrachet etc. We enjoyed walks around the vineyards and wine tasting in the village. There are also lovely day trips to Beaune and to various chateaux. Highly recommended. -
Beautiful home away from home
We have just had a wonderful one week stay in Maison Chardonnay in a lovely little village of
in Burgundy and we loved every minute of it. Maison Chardonnay is one of the best self contained accommodations we’ve stayed in. On four levels with three bedrooms, fully equipped modern kitchen, in which we cooked many lovely meals using the local produce, three bathrooms, sitting room, a very well set up laundry as well as an outside terrace complete with BBQ and table setting. Parking was easy around the tree lined square opposite the house. We highly recommend this property to anyone wishing to have the luxury of their own home in a beautiful French village. -
Superb Burgundy house
Our group of four spent five nights at Maison Chardonnay in early July, 2018. The property is a
superb renovation of an older Burgundian house. Its
three floors of living space, are exactly as depicted in the photos and are expertly furnished and fully equipped. The main common areas, including living room, kitchen and terrace, are perfect for group relaxation and dining. Puligny-Montrachet is a charming wine village with its own one-star restaurant (Le Montrachet) and is also an ideal location for exploring
nearby Cote de Beaune and Cote de Nuits attractions. The larger towns of Meursault, Chagny and Beaune are all short drives from the house.
