Château de Courban - Hotel in Côte-d’Or
7 rue du Lavoir Courban, 21520 Courban, Côte-d’Or
Burgundy,
Francia
This ambitiously renovated 19th-century mansion – with a 17th-century dovecote bearing witness to an even older heritage – was transformed into its present incarnation by Jérôme and Frédéric's father, perfectionist Pierre Vandendriessche. Most of the rooms are in the original mansion and flaunt a wide variety of styles, from the bold and bright to the floral and cosy, all tastefully harmonised and generously comfortable: recessed bedheads, draped four-posters, crisp colour schemes and carefully chosen prints. Newer buildings vaunt more contemporary design; rustic chic comfort and their own verandas. Bathrooms feature claw-foot tubs in some, walk-in showers with monsoon heads in others. The château houses a gastronomic restaurant in its delightful orangery serving good dishes with truffles, lobster and other local ingredients; breakfast should be enjoyed in bed with the shutters wide open. There are relaxed, formal gardens to one side, and an inviting swimming pool and thoroughly kitted-out Nuxe spa to the other. Take all the time you can.
