Art enthusiasts will feel right at home here. The likes of Banksy have been emulated by a talented artist, Nicolas Perrot, who also decorated the walls with originals of his own. Exuding youthfulness and creativity, this is a great choice for a group of friends looking to explore Lyon. Whether you're an art lover or not, the vibrant space is a fantastic place to stay. Not only is it an architectural masterclass, but it's also conveniently located in the heart of the city, steps away from the banks of the River Rhône. 

The old building has been converted into a contemporary design dream, giving the place an industrial-chic vibe that suits a modern preference. While it is aesthetically pleasing, it's still very liveable with each bedroom boasting a queen size bed, a sociable living space, and a huge kitchen, perfect for whipping up group meals and sharing a bottle of wine.

When it's time to head out, exploring Lyon comes easy here. In the 1st Arrondissement, close to the prestigious Lyon Museum of Fine Arts, you're in one of the liveliest parts of the city. Reaching the rest of the city is a breeze – you're just 100 metres away from the Hôtel de Ville metro stop. Come the evening, group dinners and drinks are perfectly enjoyable in your apartment, or you can head out to discover the famous gastronomical scene of Lyon. Afterwards, hit Rue St.Catherine for hip bars and clubs.

Located in Lyon’s bohemian Croix-Rousse neighbourhood – known for its houses that were former workshops – this beautiful apartment sits with the best of them, offering nothing but style and comfort. 

We love how the building’s history has been incorporated into its up-to-date design, with exposed brick walls, beamed ceilings and tiled floors lending a rustic yet elegant atelier feel to the proceedings. Huge windows allow plenty of light to pour in and bounce around the open-plan living area with its double-height ceilings, creating a bright and sociable space you’ll relish relaxing in. Make yourself at home on the plump sofa with a glass of wine or gather around the dining table for a French feast when you’re not out sampling the local restaurants. The three bedrooms, meanwhile, are pared-back spaces curated with rest and relaxation in mind, and we’re particularly fond of the main bedroom with its glass walls looking out over the living area below. With a desk space on hand too should you need to catch up on work, you’re all set for a carefree time whether you’re visiting for business or pleasure. 

Outside of your home, Croix-Rousse’s maze of leafy squares waits to be discovered, as does the area’s history of silk weaving best seen at the Mur des Canuts and the Maison des Canuts museum. Fresh produce is sold at the daily market on Boulevard de la Croix Rousse, and you’ll find trendy crowds delighting in gourmet patisseries, hip wine bars and art galleries all around your neighbourhood too.

Close to some of Lyon's best museums, this modern home is the perfect base for a couple, solo traveller or even a small family. Set in a new, well-equipped building in the heart of the Monplaisir district, it's the easy option if you want to unpack and start exploring. The big windows mean it's a bright and cheerful space, with contemporary furnishings and a striking Lyon city skyline mural on one wall. The open layout of the living area makes it a sociable place to cook, eat or relax, while the bedroom is quiet and comfortable. Head out the door and you'll find the main shopping district of Lyon, and it couldn't get more convenient, with a mini-market in front of the apartment. There are easy public transport links and it's just steps from the Lumière Museum, in the former home of the inventors of cinema.

Nice to haves

Blue may be the colour but it certainly doesn't describe the feeling in this cheerful little home in Lyon's 7th arrondissement. An intimate space for a couple or a solo traveller, it's set in a typical period building with rooftop views all the way to some of the city's most iconic sights. It's not huge, but it's a well-designed home with character and charm. We love the typical French Juliet balconies to either side of the living room and in the bedroom – perfect for opening the whole place up for some fresh air in the summer. There are some quirky touches in the bedroom, with green palm trees breaking up the blue. And the bathroom (you guessed, it's blue) is modern and luxurious. Step outside and you're right in the city's most commercial district, with bars, shops and restaurants all around. Particularly well-placed if you feel like exploring by bike, it's close to the Rhône and its quays.

Some Kind of Blue

Situated in Lyon’s Villeurbanne suburb, this curated apartment feels just like home for all travelling types. Inside, it’s full of soothing colours from the delicate green in the living area to the buttery gold tones of the bedroom. Spend your mornings reclining on the contemporary sofa with a double espresso before gathering around the dining table for a selection of French delights picked up from the nearby boulangerie. 

If you’re visiting on business, the office space makes remote working a breeze. But if you’re here for pleasure, jump on the metro at Charpennes Charles Hernu and whizz into the heart of the city. Take a tour of La Basilique Notre Dame de Fourvière followed by a trip to the Musée des Confluences. When you’re ready for something to eat, charming Vieux Lyon plays host to a number of fantastic brasseries, cafes and restaurants.

Quirky designs, unique chandeliers and contemporary art pieces set this stylish apartment apart from the rest. Meanwhile, the home's bohemian La Croix-Rousse location is most definitely in keeping with its aesthetic and personality.

Despite the apartment's ground floor position, it receives plenty of natural light through its large windows. We particularly love the secluded private terrace space, which invites guests to dine outside and relax in the sunshine away from the city's bustle. 

With an open concept, the kitchen, dining area, and living space create a sociable setting with an atmosphere that will almost make you feel like you've stepped into a modern art exhibit. Meanwhile, the wooden ceilings in the two bedrooms bring a cosier vibe to these spaces, where you'll find refuge in a relaxing night's sleep. 

Enjoy the village-like vibe of La Croix-Rousse, which allows you to feel far away from the city – yet central enough to enjoy Lyon and all that it has to offer. With the banks of the Rhône river steps away and a wealth of museums, shops, bars and restaurants at your beck and call – what more could you ask for?

A Beam Come True

Single-Level Home

Zen-inspiring white spaces punctuated by eclectic accents and unconventional touches coupled with a first-rate location set this ground floor apartment apart from other similar holiday apartments. Located in the midst of the bohemian neighbourhood of Croix Rousse, a part of Lyon characterised by its tree-lined squares and historic houses –not to mention the rich array of shops, cafés, and restaurants and the daily market to be found along its wide main street – the apartment provides a home away from home that is made for experiencing the beauty of Lyon like a local. 

The apartment’s tranquil interior overlooks the lively streets below, allowing you to feel at once part of the bustling city life that has seen Lyon rise in notoriety as one of the most cosmopolitan cities in France, and cocooned in a comfortable haven of calm. Following a restful night’s sleep in the understated neutral-toned bedroom, emerge into the bright and welcoming kitchen area for a bit of breakfast and your favourite morning pick-me-up at the breakfast bar. 

Then, the choice is yours as to whether you’d prefer a leisurely morning catching up on news, reading, or conversation with your loved-ones in the apartment, or would rather head out into the day to uncover the myriad delights that this city has tucked around almost every corner. 

Wander the terracotta-toned backstreets or saunter down the elegant boulevards, stopping in at artisanal boulangeries or flexing your cultural muscle in one of the city’s many museums. Among our favourites has got to be the Musée Miniature et Cinéma – a museum exploring the art of miniature figurines and special effects used in film technology. Lyon is also known for the collection of street murals which dot the city, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled on your explorations and see how many of these impressive artworks you can spot. 

Dusk calls for an aperitif accompanied by a few slices traditional Lyonnaise sausage and a creamy wodge of typical Saint-Marcellin cheese slathered on fresh French bread as you lounge around the living room deciding on how to spend the evening.

The Lyon Den

There's something effusively cool about this apartment in Villeurbanne, with a hint of art deco meets mid-century modern. We can't get enough of the details, from the extravagant lampshades to the vibrant walls, everything here feels like a work of art. Not only is it aesthetically beautiful, but it's also within easy reach of Lyon's centre. 

Although this apartment looks artistic, it's still very liveable and homely. And when everything looks this good, even the most simple daily acts feel special. Pour yourself a fresh cup of coffee in the super sleek kitchen, pull up the mustard, velvet chair to the window in the living room, and watch the world go by from the Juliet balcony. 

When you're energised and ready to see the city, walk the short five minutes to the Charpennes subway station and hop on to get to Lyon Part Dieu. From there, the city is yours – the Roman Amphithéâtre des Trois Gaules, La Basilique Notre Dame de Fourvière, the Musée des Confluences, and so much more. Even just a walk around the Old Town will captivative you with its Renaissance buildings and terracotta hues. 

After a day of exploring, relax on your sofa with the warm-toned light setting a calming ambience, before getting ready for dinner. Your kitchen is well equipped for whipping up dinner, to be enjoyed around the chic bistro-style table. Or, head out to sample the delicious local food scene.

Isn't this home just pretty as a picture? We certainly think so. Located in one of Lyon's more prestigious neighbourhoods just a few minutes' walk from Place Bellecour and the peninsula, this elegant apartment makes for the perfect pied-à-terre in this electric city. With a grand yet welcoming living space comprising of a kitchen and sociable seating area all flooded with light thanks to the huge French windows, the home feels intimate and warm, whilst exuding a typical kind of French grandeur that – for us – is très magnifique.

Here you'll find yourself close to the Cours de la Liberté with its many restaurants and shops, and you'll have only to cross the Wilson bridge to be on the peninsula itself. Spend days perusing local shops, markets, museums, and galleries, before returning to the cosy comfort and effortless style of your home away from home.

With a stylish bedroom to boot – not to mention a sleek bathroom with a generously sized shower – you’ve got everything you need for a relaxing stay.

This stylish little studio apartment is right in the heart of historic Annecy. From your doorstep, you can step out into streets lined with wooden-shuttered buildings, where cafés spill out onto the pavement. An alpine town, Annecy is flanked by snow-capped mountains and perhaps the most picturesque spot is the stone Palais in the centre of the Le Thiou River – the view of which is best enjoyed from the riverside restaurants and gelaterias, a five-minute walk from this apartment. Although it’s a studio, the apartment itself feels spacious and it has plenty of character courtesy of the exposed brick wall and hardwood floor. A wall of windows lets in plenty of sunshine during the day and a room divider separates the living and bedroom area from the dine-in kitchen. There’s even a stylish, Scandinavian-esque desk if you want to work remotely. If you want to get around the compact town of Annecy in a flash, your host provides complimentary bikes for sightseeing.

Located in the middle of the Burgundy countryside, there's been a building on this site for around two centuries, something you might be able to tell from the wooden beams, flagstone flooring and thick stone walls. However, it's no longer a humble barn, but a luxurious French getaway.

In the intervening two hundred years, plenty has been added to aid in this transformation. Outside, the most notable change has been the building of a heated swimming pool in the middle of the lush grounds and even more recently — in 2021, in fact — a walled garden has been constructed holding over twenty types of herbs and soft fruits. If you time your visit just right, you might be able to pick cherries and grapes straight off the branch.

When the weather's being kind, there's everything from a boules court and swing to a barbecue on the terrace with outdoor speakers to enjoy. If, however, the clouds are ominously grey, you can keep yourselves occupied on the billiards table or home cinema setup instead.

The nearest village is only twenty-five minutes away on foot and offers all the charming bakeries, charcuteries and markets you could want. As well as that, the unspoilt Morvan Regional Nature Park that surrounds the address means the local area is perfect for long walks or cycle rides. If that sounds too tame, the Magny Cours circuit — a French Grand Prix venue — is only forty minutes' drive away.

Step into the open-plan living area and pour yourself a steaming hot cup of cocoa, before settling in on the sofa and relaxing after a day out on the slopes. We love how this newly renovated chalet combines stylishly curated furnishings and a sleek chef's kitchen with exposed wooden walls to keep things traditional, yet seamlessly modern. 

With a private balcony – the ideal space for a hearty breakfast in the crisp morning air and a well-earned glass of brandy under the evening stars – as well as a communal gym, ski lockers, and the convenience of private underground parking, there's so much to love about this home. 

When you're ready to hit the slopes, catch a ski lift up right by your chalet up to the snowy alpine peaks. You're also just a short walk from the centre of the village, offering a great selection of bars and restaurants to clench your thirst after a thrilling day in the mountains.

Whether you’re here to ski or to simply soak up the gorgeous scenery, you can’t do much better than this tastefully decorated, alpine apartment, which comes equipped with a whole host of communal amenities that will make your stay here one to remember. 

Start your morning with a cup of coffee on the terrace, then set off for a day of hiking or skiing on the snowy slopes of the Central French Western Alps. We wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to spend all day out here, breathing in the fresh air or warming up with glass of mulled wine at one of the town’s charming bars, but if you’ve had your fill of being out and about, there’s plenty to keep you occupied back at home. Treat yourself to a soothing session in the on-site sauna, go for a dip in the indoor pool, or sit back and relax in the communal lounge before heading upstairs for a home-cooked meal around the rustic dining table. Raclette, anyone?

With its modern styling and enviable position right on the slopes, this Huez apartment is an excellent choice for skiing aficionados and outdoorsy types. Inside the home, neutral tones and natural textures blend seamlessly with the rugged surroundings. Start mornings on the balcony, breathing in the fresh alpine air and soaking up the views of the Grandes Rousses massif, before sitting down at the dining table with a typical French breakfast. Recline on the sofa with a hot chocolate or head down to the communal gym for a mood-boosting workout.

Spend afternoons in nature, skiing down the Pic Blanc in the winter months and mountain biking in the summer. Or why not try something a little different and embark on a glacier hike? When you’ve worked up a hunger, take the short walk into the heart of town for a hearty supper in a tasty restaurant.

Early / Late Check-Out Available

Immerse yourself in the beauty of the Burgundy region from this fabulous country house surrounded by serene landscapes and open countryside. From the moment you arrive, prepare to be awe-struck by the home's stunning 16th-century facade featuring blue window shutters and stone infrastructure. 

The inside is just as beautiful as exposed wooden beams, and original stone floors pave the way to a cosy stay. But, while the space undoubtedly preserves its original charm, modern furnishings offer style and practicality. We particularly love the pink and yellow colour scheme of the kitchen, with bold checkerboard flooring and vibrant walls – this room, in particular, brags bags of charm. 

Open the French windows onto the gorgeous grassy garden, where you'll also find a sunny terrace - perfect for lazy afternoons with a glass of local wine in hand. Wander around the wooded grounds, reconnecting with nature as you go. The local neighbourhood is an equally dreamy setting where you'll find only three local people living there all year round. 

It doesn't get much more rural than that. Nearby, you'll find the towns of Sennecey le Grand, 5 kilometres to the north, and Tournus, 7 kilometres to the south. In each of these local towns, there are shops and restaurants to pick all you need. Don't miss the rolling local vineyards where the winegrowers welcome you to tour the vines and sample the wines. 


Un Petit Verre 

For a group holiday with a difference, this hunting lodge in the heart of the Parc Naturel Régional du Morvan certainly fits the bill. Wander through the grand eighteenth-century halls and wood-panelled rooms furnished with leather armchairs, and picture yourself setting out on a hunt. Surrounded by verdant hills, there are endless hikes to take, through the woods and fields, with spectacular vineyards a short distance away. Take a dip in the pool and admire the panorama of Burgundy stretching out below, and enjoy atmospheric dinners outside in the grounds.

Morvan Hunting

With an unbeatable location right in the heart of the Alpe d’Huez resort, this chalet apartment is hard to beat. And when you take the incredible views and amenities into account, you’re really onto a winner.

The cooling tones of this apartment exude serenity, with the warmth of the fireplace and the plush sofa providing the perfect spot for relaxing after a day on the slopes. Patio doors invite in a bright natural light while giving you a peek of the mountain view, but of course, that’s even better from your balcony. Mornings out there are particularly beautiful, fresh cup of coffee in hand, soaking in the early mist hanging on the mountains. It's not just the apartment itself that has your comfort in mind – you can unwind in the sauna, succumb to relaxation in the hammam, take a lap in the heated swimming pool, or play foosball while the little ones busy themselves in the ball pit. 

The location of this home really is fantastic. You’re a mere two metres away from hopping on a ski lift, where the impressive chain of mountains are sure to get your adrenaline soaring. The resort has a good mix of slopes depending on your experience, and your host can always arrange ski lessons to boost your confidence and get you shredding in no time. Your lovely host can also arrange a professional guide to take your group out to untouched terrain, away from the crowds. 

All of that skiing is bound to work up an appetite, so it’s a good thing the apartment is steps away from the restaurants and bars of Alpe d’Huez. If you’d like to explore more of the French Alps, a great local team of travel assistants can make sure you make the most out of your stay.  

Between the Slopes

Boasting breath-taking views of the snow-capped Alps, this cosy, chalet-style apartment is what mountain escapes are all about. You’re within easy reach of the slopes here, but with so many on-site amenities at your fingertips, we wouldn’t blame you if you wanted to stay in. Go for a dip in the heated pool, keep cosy with a session in the communal sauna, or simply sit back and relax in the downstairs lounge. Then, when it’s time to eat, head back upstairs to your rustic home from home, where you’ll find everything you need to whip up a hearty, evening meal. Delish. 

If you do fancy getting out and about, you’ll be pleased to hear that you’re perfectly placed for exploring all that Alpe d’Huez has to offer. Grab your equipment from the ski room and set off for the slopes or settle in at one of the local bars and treat yourself to glass or two of warming mulled wine. And, if you fancy soaking up more of the gorgeous scenery, there’s a Ferris wheel nearby offering spectacular views of the surrounding mountains. What more could you ask for?

This enormous chateau in the Burgundy countryside has quite a fascinating backstory. It was built in 1900 and gifted to a French actress by her lover before it was sold to the Red Cross and used as a war hospital. Today, it's the spot for a rather sumptuous getaway.

The interior is full of grand features, from the long dining table in the orangery and high-ceilinged living room to the library and impressive hallway. You might also notice some more recent additions, such as the home cinema set-up and spa-worthy bathrooms.

Outside, too, has some rather inviting features, chief among them the heated swimming pool surrounded by loungers. When you're finished taking a dip, there's plenty more to discover in the four acres of grounds, including a fishing pond and a shared tennis and basketball court.

However you choose to fill your days, the chateau's rural location will ensure you can do it in the utmost tranquillity. There are lots of walking routes that start nearby and Morvan National Park lies under half an hour's drive away. The town of Epinac only takes ten minutes in the car to reach and offers a restaurant, bakery, grocery and butchers.

Parking On Street

This charming cottage stands at the heart of a famous wine village in Burgundy, Puligny-Montrachet. It’s in a marvellous location for exploring the vineyards of Burgundy, and for soaking up the atmosphere of quaint French villages. The wine capital of Burgundy, Beaune, is just a fifteen-minute drive away. 

The traditional house stands across from the village square – you can watch the comings and goings of the locals from your terrace. Each morning, you need only take a few steps to buy fresh bread and pastries from the boulangerie, which you can devour on the terrace – we love dining alfresco on holiday. In the evening, you might cook on the barbecue, or for special occasions make a reservation at the Michelin-starred restaurant just down the road. 

The cottage blends historic charm with stylish decor. You can look forward to seeing the original parquet flooring, exposed stone walls and wooden beams, alongside some modern touches that make your stay all the more comfortable. After a day spent cycling around nearby vineyards, it feels glorious to sink into the master suite’s deep bathtub – pour yourself a glass of wine to take your relaxation to the next level.

If you’re looking for a great location in Annecy, this home could be the one. Everything you need is on your doorstep, including cafes, bars and restaurants, as well as boutiques, lakeside beaches and cycle trails. Situated on Rue Perrière, the building is actually part of the historic city walls. The street runs parallel to the main canal, and the famous Palais de l’Île is just a short stroll away. In fact, you can see the Perrière Bridge from this home’s living room window. The wooden beams, floors and stone walls give this place a cosy feel. Also, your host has arranged a free secure parking space for guests in a nearby car park – a fantastic bonus in this pedestrianised town.
