Fleurville is located in the land of art and history between Cluny and Tournus, which offers many riches of heritage, with the Romanesque churches playing a starring role.
Less than a quarter hour from the hotel lies Tournus. This town almost has a Mediterranean atmosphere and houses many treasures of Romanesque art, with the Abbaye Saint-Philibert as the crown jewel.
Just 30 minutes from Fleurville, discover the Abbaye de Cluny. A spiritual heart of Medieval Europe, it is one of the most visited abbeys in France and still retains to this day a church, a cloister and a convent.

The Mâconnais district, the southernmost vineyard of Burgundy, stretches 50 km between Sennecey-le-Grand to the north and Saint-Véran to the south. It produces five renowned “village” AOC white wines (some of the most prestigious in Burgundy): Pouilly-Fuissé, Pouilly-Vinzelles, and Pouilly-Loché.

You’ll also find sleepy villages bathing in the sunlight, as well as ancient sites such as Alésia, Bibracte and Autun. And whichever way you turn, you’ll find open and dynamic towns like Beaune, Chalon-sur-Saône, Tournus and Mâcon.
If you love exploring places at your own pace, then you’ll love discover the secrets of Burgundy by bike. In this rich historical region, special routes will lead you to the heart of the wine country. By car or on foot, you can also discover the many châteaux, villages and wine cellars for a cultural pitstop.
The fact that the Saône-et-Loire department is so prized by cyclists and walkers is no coincidence. The first “Voie Verte” (Green Route) for cycling in France was born here between Cluny and Givry, and the itineraries for cycle-tourism are numerous and varied, opening your horizons onto natural splendour.
From Fleurville, both a “voie verte” (green route) and a “voie bleue” (blue route, from the gates of the château) will allow you to discover Southern Burgundy at your own pace.
