Burgundy is known primarily as a land of fine food and wines, but has so much more to offer visitors – from the lush forests, lakes and waterfalls of the Jura mountains to the historic cities of Dijon, Chalon-sur-Saône, Mâcon and Lyon… as well as extensive canal and cycleway networks and a fascinating Roman and medieval heritage. Factors that combine for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday.
Beaune, Cluny, Brancion, Lons, Bourg-en-Bresse make for fascinating visits, as does Tournus, a Romanesque town set on the Saône river which has one of the most visited sights in Burgundy - the 11th and 12th century Saint Philibert Abbey.
Louhans is the nearest town to the Mill - centre of the Bresse area, it is known for its cobbled arcade of 157 shops and its Monday market.
