Château de La Barge  

In the heart of the Mâcon vineyards in Chaintré, this pet-friendly château hotel dates back to 1679. A short drive from Cave de Chaintré and Castle Lavernette, with Mâcon town about 8 km away. Note: the property is closed from January 1–10.

Twenty-five contemporary rooms combine classic château character with modern comforts: air conditioning, flat-screen TV, minibar, electric kettle, bathrobe and free toiletries. Many rooms face the park or the seasonal outdoor pool, and the dining room opens onto a summer terrace for alfresco meals.

Seasonal outdoor swimming pool, sun-soaked terrace and landscaped gardens, plus tour/ticket assistance and laundry services. Free on-site/public parking and a pet-friendly policy make vineyard excursions easy — wake up to vine-scented mornings and poolside views.

Conference center with four meeting rooms, limited-hours front desk and free self-parking. Free Wi-Fi is available, the hotel has an elevator for accessibility, and staff speak English, Spanish and French.

The on-site restaurant highlights regional specialties and creative cuisine paired with an extensive wine list; dine in the classic dining room or on the terrace in summer. Buffet breakfasts are served daily from 7:30–10:00 for a fee, and there’s a bar/lounge (bar and dining venue closed on Sundays).
