Enjoy a luxurious experience in Burgundy

This 19th-century château, with a surface area of 340m², enjoys an exceptional location in the heart of southern Burgundy, between Beaune and Mâcon, just minutes from Chalon-sur-Saône. It is set within a picturesque 1.2-hectare wooded park, featuring an orchard, century-old trees, and a heated 6x12m swimming pool.

The château offers 7 luxurious bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, as well as a children’s bedroom, a fitness room with a sauna and hammam, a cozy lounge with a fireplace, a dining room, and a kitchen. All living areas open directly onto the pool terrace, fostering a warm and convivial atmosphere.

Nestled away from main roads and any noise disturbances, the château provides ultimate tranquility. The access road winds through a 200-meter apple orchard, leading to a spacious courtyard with parking for up to 8 vehicles. Surrounded by lush greenery and trees, some of which are centuries old, the property ensures exceptional privacy.

The château’s two round towers add a charming touch that will captivate lovers of historic architecture. The lounge, dining room, and bedrooms have retained their original noble materials: antique parquet floors, exposed beam ceilings, fireplaces, and period doors and windows. The decor and furnishings have been carefully selected to create a perfect harmony between tradition and modernity, offering an exquisite blend of elegance and comfort.

An automatic cover ensures the safety of the little ones and retains heat when the pool is not in use. Its depth starts with a shallow area of one meter and descends to about 1.90 meters.

Sun loungers will enhance your sunny afternoons, along with an outdoor lounge for your lunches and dinners by the water.
Our technical team will visit several times during your stay to maintain the pool and the surrounding area.

The pool heating system is an air-source heat pump. The pump uses air calories to heat the circulating water; therefore, we cannot guarantee a water temperature if the air temperature is below 15°C.

The château's rich history

The Château is essentially a square manor house, but with its two towers at the front, it earns the title of a château. Typical of the mid-19th century style, the château's history actually extends much further back. Over the centuries, it has undergone numerous alterations and was even partially destroyed at one point, followed by an almost complete reconstruction in the 19th century.

During our renovation work, we discovered evidence of habitation since the Middle Ages. The most intact remnant from this period is a vast building with impressive beams, reminiscent of the grain store at Cluny.

In the 12th century, Cluny owned the St Marcel Priory and numerous other properties in the surrounding area. These properties are marked on a 1649 map under the name ‘la Tarte,’ a deformation of ‘tertre,’ meaning a rise in the land (185m above sea level). This is the only elevated area in the Lans region.

It is believed that the property was originally designed with defense in mind, during a time when bandits were common, and security was crucial. The château has been transformed numerous times and has seen many families come and go.

Ancient archives reveal that the château belonged to the Marquise of Thésut from 1582 to 1765. It then passed to the Denon family, whose descendant, Dominique-Vivant Denon (1747-1825), was a renowned Egyptologist and director of the Museums of France. Although he held the title of ‘Lord of Lans,’ Denon, a great traveler, never stayed at the Château de Lans. He participated in the Egypt Campaign and fought in the battles of Austerlitz, Essling, and Eylau, where he lost an arm. Upon his death in 1868, one of his daughters, the Countess of Duranti, rebuilt the château as it stands today. Her son later donated the château to a prominent figure in Châlon-sur-Saône society upon his death in 1886.
