Our must-haves for young and old

Have you been to see Rosalie and Ferdinand yet? Even though your little ones will probably find it hard to leave them, they’ll be just as happy to follow you on your adventures to explore the area around Les Cabottes, as there are plenty of kid-friendly activities to do with them. In fact, Burgundy has no shortage of beautiful treasures that should pique the curiosity of every member of the tribe. To help you find your way around, here’s a short but not exhaustive list of our favourite activities to share:

1/ The Château de Savigny-les-Beaune and its impressive and eccentric collections of cars, aeroplanes, fire engines and other historic vehicles, all set in breathtaking surroundings. You can buy the estate’s wines to round off your visit in style.

A 35-minute drive from Les Cabottes

2/ The Fallot mustard factory in Beaune to awaken your taste buds and understand how the transformation of a small seed can lead to one of the best mustards in the world. You can also stock up on piquant sweets in the shop.

25 minutes by car from Les Cabottes, about 2 hours by electric bike.

3/ Le vélorail du Morvan in Cordesse to discover the beauty of green Burgundy (yes, it’s not all vineyards!) with its endless forest landscapes and the smell of undergrowth that tickles your nose as the carriage flies through the air. Note that the velorail can hold a maximum of 4 people – 2 pedalling and 2 sitting behind – so it’s up to you to choose the right team!

Just 25 minutes from Les Cabottes, with a chance to visit the pretty town of Autun in the process.

4/ The cassissium at Nuits-Saint-Georges to find out all about this little berry so present in Burgundy (in kir, of course, but not only). A particularly educational and interactive visit to immerse young and old alike in the world of blackcurrants. Cocktail workshops are held every first Friday of the month (although this is more for adults than children, as you’ll have gathered).

38 minutes’ drive from Les Cabottes

5/ Acro Givry, where your little ones can let off steam in the enchanting setting of this pretty forest on the Côte Chalonnaise. Between April and September, Burgundy’s biggest adventure park welcomes you with its 30 courses, suitable for all ages. We haven’t tried it out yet, but all our little neighbours are fans! And for the less adventurous, there’s also a mini golf course in the shade of the hundred-year-old oak trees.

Our philosophy? To be able to offer you a total experience that will transform your overnight stay at Les Cabottes into a holiday that will leave some lovely memories behind. That’s why we’ve designed each accommodation as a cocoon filled with softness, ideal for disconnecting. While we often welcome couples looking for a romantic getaway or people coming solo to take some time out, we also have a number of accommodations suitable for families: our gîte and our yellow cabotte are perfect for tribes, each with 2 large double beds. It’s also possible to add a cot for the little ones, particularly in our blue cabotte or our character rooms. So what can you do when you come to Les Cabottes as a family? Well, lots of things:

Books, games and vinyl just about everywhere

For some quiet time before bed, or to keep the family occupied when it’s raining, we’ve put board games in all our accommodation, as well as books and vinyl records to introduce the youngest guests to the Spotify of yesteryear.

A wellness massage

Our professional masseuse, Elodie, comes directly to Les Cabottes to take care of you, and offers special massages for children, among other things. A gentle, soothing way to help them relax and integrate their body shape. From 3 years to 15 years.

A colouring table in the cellar

As you may know, we offera daily tasting of Burgundy wines in our cellar. So no, we wouldn’t say it’s a kidfriendly activity 😉 what it is, however, is the colour table in the cellar so that you, the adults, can taste without your little ones getting bored.

Good food

Alexane cooks every day to offer menus adapted to children (up to the age of 12) with small portions and comforting tastes to win over even the most demanding of palates. Small gourmet basket at €15.

Our catering offer

A Nordic bath for safe paddling

If you opt for our yellow cabotte during your family holiday, the Nordic bath on your terrace should make you very happy. Heated to 37°C, its small size makes it ideal for children to play in safety (supervision is of course still required).

A meadow for frolicking and donkeys to cuddle

Adjacent to our accommodation, we make our 6,000m2 meadow available to our guests so that children can let off steam and parents can relax on a bench overlooking the vines. A short visit to Rosalie and Ferdinand, our two miniature donkeys, should quickly become a must during your stay.

Cycling through the vineyards

Just a few metres from Les Cabottes is the voie verte, a former railway line converted into a safe cycle path. There are several options for cycling with your children, depending on their age: baby seats, trailers or children’s bikes. You can also hire a bike directly from us at Les Cabottes– it’s so practical!

An open-air escape game combining a walk and a game

We’ve come up with a city game that starts at Les Cabottes and winds its way through the village, offering the whole family the chance to make some interesting discoveries. It’s a great way to combine business with pleasure, learning new things and stretching your legs at the same time.

the course

And pssst, our pretty village of Change has built play equipment for the village children . They are just a few metres from our estate and are, of course, accessible to our little guests for the duration of their stay.
