Cycling Holidays in Burgundy & Beaujolais

• The gastronomic centre of France where not only the wines are appellation controlee, but also the corn fed, free range chickens
• Unique Sarassin chimneys on every farmhouse across the Plaine of Bresse, no two the same, and nobody knows why
• Cascading geraniums decorate the houses, often with wooden balconies
• Perfect for keeping the weight down while conquering the marvellous cuisine

Our holidays start and finish at the Chateau de Fleurville in Fleurville,an elegant chateau hotel in a small Burgundy village. The regional hotels are *** and ****, chateaux and one **** chambre d’hote. Many hotels have pools, all do wonderful food.

Burgundy & Beaujolais offers easy cycling through fabulous scenery. You'll pedal along Voie Verte, the cycle path from Macon to Nuits St. Georges, a converted rail track which cuts through the hills.

Places to visit:

The prehistoric Roc de Solutre formed by a glacier in the Ice Age. La Dombes with its shimmering lakes is a water wonderland for wildfowl and dragonflies. The medieval town of Perouges much favoured as the back drop of swashbuckling films and galettes, some delicious biscuits. Cluny, for magnificent architecture and a monastery once visited by the Pope. A surfit of famous Burgundy wines and Beaujolais Grand Crus, it is worth a visit to Georges Duboeuf’s wine museum at Thorigne Romaneche to taste them all
