In the heart of the Beaujolais region is the Château de Bagnols – a Chateau, luxury hotel and a vineyard at Bagnols (69 Rhône, ARA)

Château de Bagnols is one of the finest four-star deluxe chateau hotels in France and is regarded by many as the finest vineyard chateau hotel in the world. Discovered by Lady Hamlyn in 1987 in a derelict state, she painstakingly restored the chateau with much energy and vision, to its former glory, revealing Renaissance wall and ceiling paintings created during the chateau‘s finest period when nearby Lyon was one of Europe‘s great Renaissance cities.
Dating from the 13th century, the chateau features impressive towers, the original dry moat, honey-coloured stone known as “pierres dorées” and a dramatic entrance across a drawbridge.
The Chateau de Bagnols is one of France‘s major historic monuments as well as a unique luxury hotel with 21 of the most superb rooms and suites in France. Chateau de Bagnols is set among vineyards, forests and green hills in the heart of the beautiful Beaujolais countryside in south-east France, just 17 miles from Lyon. A train from Paris or Geneva takes only two hours and the ski slopes of the Alps are a 90-minute drive away.
The Michelin star Salle des Gardes restaurant offers diners the most wonderful selection of regional specialities as well as an impressive selection of French wines. Outside, the sunfacing terrace, shaded by 100-year-old lime trees, provides the most spectacular view of the Beaujolais countryside. Chateau de Bagnols is a unique experience. Nowhere else in France can provide guests with such historic luxury in such a grandiose yet comfortable environment.

Beaujolais Wines: Soft fruity reds made from the Gamay grape – do not be confused by Beaujolais Nouveau which is made to be light and fresh. Serious Beaujolais wines have great style and depth of flavour – go for Beaujolais-Villages or a named Village such as Brouilly, Morgon etc

This hotel offers a rare treat – the Beaujolais country is particularly attractive and the wines are very drinkable.
